Use OCR as a study aid

Extracted text is useful for search, flashcards and personal notes, but it can contain recognition errors. Compare quotations and technical terms with the source before citing them.

Respect copyright and course rules. Only scan material you may use, and include proper citations instead of presenting extracted writing as your own.
