Hi Ann, that should work out for standard hard and paperback books. Normally its exactly what I would suggest. If the textbooks are 8.5x11 though, then they open out to 17x11. Books that size need the flip sides function I think.
Could you send me a link to your foppydo on amazon? They make a few models and the only one I actually touched was a cardboard thing like the standsan. I get the impression yours is a cut above that.
