The image reading apparatus is configured to generate, when the first scanner is replaced, a new first offset amount based on the second offset amount, a first inclination amount of the first scanner, and a second inclination amount of the second scanner. The image reading apparatus is configured to correct the first image based on the new first offset amount.
