Hi Phil,
> I have a Brother printer/scanner, but the paper is fragile
There are book scanners which take photographs of the pages at a
distance, typically with the manual turning of pages. Or cradles which
hold the book and the mobile phone that does the snapping. Or just
mobile-phone apps leaving the lighting and physical positioning up to
you. Removing page curvature is done in software.
https://diybookscanner.org may be useful, especially its forum.
Or perhaps there's experience with ‘photo scanning’ on this list.

Cheers, Ralph.
