Publishing old manuals and books on the web. Legal?

Hi all,

I'm in the process of digitizing a lot of old manuals and books. Some pieces
I want to make downloadable on my website.
But I don't want to run into trouble with copyright etc. Does anybody have
experience with publishing old stuff on the internet?
I'm thinking about stuff like Heathkit manuals, or the "How to build a
digital computer" book. Or articles of old Popular Electronics magazines
that are relevant to vintage computers.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
