Abstract
An image reading apparatus controls a sheet feeding unit such that in a reading job in which a plurality of documents on a document tray is continuously fed, continuous feeding of the documents is stopped in response to changing of a detection state in which a document is detected on the document tray to a non-detection state in which no document is detected on the document tray. The control unit executes a first mode in which the sheet feeding unit stops the continuous feeding of the documents in a case where the number of documents having been discharged continuously in the reading job has reached a predetermined number of sheets, regardless of a detection result of the detection unit, and a second mode which continues the continuous feeding of the documents regardless of the number of documents having been discharged continuously.
