Another source which publishes books is Arcadia Publishing:

If you meet their criteria, they will publish and print your book at no
charge to the author.
You buy the books at a discount (can’t recall exactly the
amount), and sell them for around $21. Since the books are
printed in Germany, it can take a month or so to get the final product
back. You do have to provide photos and
articles according to their format, but that too, isn’t
difficult.
The book is 6 1/2 x 9 1/4. You may order as many books as you want, with
a certain initial minimum of somewhere
around 100 (may have changed since we had ours done). Additional orders
can be as low as 20. The books are soft cover. We have had published
“Images of Baraboo” Wisconsin, and are very pleased with
the quality of work they do. I believe they do limit the number of
pages—ours has 128.
For cash strapped museums, this might be something to check into.
