Check out the CANTUS database, which is the basic search engine for medieval musicologists. You will see that many of the MSS in the database are linked to images that can be found on other sites, a greatly useful feature. It might be a good example for you as it is heavily trafficked.

Dear Matija,
One example, which might or might not be the sort of thing you are looking for, is the catalogue of papyri at the University of Michigan, which is accessible both as a local catalogue ( http://quod.lib.umich.edu/a/apis?page=index) and through the Papyri.info portal (http://papyri.info/search?COLLECTION=michigan). I think the data/metadata contained by the two sites is more or less the same, but Michigan may also maintain some catalogue data that isn't included in the APIS format that Papyri.info serve.
(I picked Michigan at random, but I'm sure at least a few of the other contributing APIS institutions [http://papyri.info/browse/apis/] also serve their collections locally as well as through Papyri.info.)
Hope this helps,
Gabby

Dear Colleagues,
Can you please give any example of a (small) digital collection of manuscript or printed primary sources which, 1) operates as an independent web-portal AND also 2) their data are in some way included/aggregated into some large collection or digital library?
I am particularly interested in what happens as data pass from a "small" into a "large" digital resource? What kind of data are most suitable and frequent object of such aggregation in our area of digital humanities: only meta-data, or also msDesc, digital images, transcriptions? How "visible" is the original small collection after the aggregation? Etc.
I hope this is not an off-topic question. Thank you for any advice,
Matija
