Why don't they get volunteers though? Especially when there are people out there actively trying to sabotage captcha? I have no idea what OCR stands for.

Optical Character Recognition.

And the volunteers wouldn't be typing up books, they would be PROOFREADING them, which is much more mind-numbing. I have doubts they would be able to get enough volunteers to do that without it being incredibly slow.

Having volunteers type the books seems like a better idea than using the system they use now, since volunteers are more likely to type what they see without mistaking any characters for another character. It's still free and doesn't require expensive machines that make more mistakes than a human could.

That would slow down the process immensely. And in the mean time comment systems still need something to cut down on spam.

They do. (http://www.pgdp.net/c/)

OCR stands for "optical character reader". It's a program that tries to translate scanned pages into something a computer can understand.

There are people trying to sabotage captcha? Why on earth? Do they want to go to those scrambled letters that are almost impossible to decipher instead?

OCR is kind of like a scanner, but sort of the reverse. It takes images of text and turns them into editable text files (the one I used turned them into .txt files, but I know there are more advanced ones that can turn it into a .doc file), but it's pretty inaccurate. I've only used one once, but it does things like take the letter "C" and interpret it as a parenthesis (. Or an "S" as "$"- it's kind of funny to see the things it can come out with, but I can imagine it would be a huge pain in the ass if you had to digitize a bunch of documents.
