Info files in packages are made available to users.
Your package-building process has to run install-info to make a dir file though.
See (info "(elisp) Multi-file Packages") - search for "install-info".

FWIW I've made a package that consists of nothing but info -- I turned
the Python documentation into info and packaged it so it was easier to
install across multiple machines.  I think people have done this with
RnRS and/or the CL hyperspec as well.
