OurDigitalWorld is a not-for-profit organization with one of the largest publicly accessible newspaper collections in the world. If you are interested in making your already digitized historical, community newspapers available publicly, the content can be ingested into the OurDigitalWorld platform, VITA Toolkit <http://vitatoolkit.ca/newspapers/>, a web-based software with no client downloads or self-hosting required. Example collections include Wilmette [Illinois] Public Library http://news.wilmettelibrary.info/, Milton [Ontario] Public Library http://news.milton.halinet.on.ca/search, and Digital Kingston [Ontario] http://vitacollections.ca/digital-kingston/search. We also offer a full newspaper digitization service for bringing collections online with hit-highlighted search results: http://vitatoolkit.ca/newspapers/all-in-one-newspaper-digitization-service/. I'm happy to pass on more information if that is the kind of solution you're looking for.
