Ptempel has good advice. Profile your monitor and then profile your scanner using a scanner target. I also got the MonacoEZColor a couple of years ago. It works well, but there are newer and probably better ones available now. It was money well spent. Scanning got much easier.

FYI, Wolf Faust makes some very good (and inexpensive) calibration targets using Velvia and other film.
Affordable IT 8.7 (ISO 12641) Scanner Color Calibration Targets

I understand there are scanning profiles for Velvia, but have never needed to track them down. You could also make your own to your own standards once you get your system profiled. I found Tim Gray's book very helpful.
