My dangerous advice (relative badness depends on jurisdiction): scan them, host them, and wait to see if anyone tells you to stop. For over a decade I have been hosting scanned copies of various in-copyright, out-of-print books as PDFs on my web site. I haven't heard a peep from the rights holders. I don't know if it matters, but I have no advertising on my site. The books and everything else are just hosted for the enjoyment of people who share my interests.
