To read a plurality of pages, it is necessary to notify a server of completion of transfer from an image reading apparatus and transmit a next page reading input instruction from an operation terminal to the image reading apparatus again via the server. In the above reading operation, time from completion of original reading to the start of reading of the next original is prolonged, and user operability lowers. According to an embodiment of this invention, when reading images of a plurality of pages, the first image reading instruction is input from a user terminal. After that, original placement, reading start instruction, and the like for the next page are performed from an input unit provided in the image reading apparatus. This can reduce the network communication amount and improve the throughput and user operability.
