We also use the Open Library Internet Archive BookReader as one of our book viewers at Brown. https://repository.library.brown.edu/services/book_reader/set/bdr:218476/ Another option we've adapted is Portfolio.js which we call the Portfolio Viewer https://repository.library.brown.edu/services/book_reader/portfolio/bdr:218476/ This is our current solution for large books with occasional irregularly sized page.
