I just read an article about this, but apparently it's at home. The
institution used an Access database, and collected one set of metadata
relating to the original, and another set relating to the digital image, but
everything was stored in one database.
Let me know if you want me to find the citation for you--I got it through
ILL.

Subject: original format documentation and the digital surrogate - a marri
age made in heaven or hell
We are trying to reduce duplication of efforts in terms of documenting
artifact photographs and their digital surrogates. Traditionally, our Photo
Archive has recorded all materials excluding the digital derivative in an
archival database and the digital derivative recorded in the artifact
database's multimedia component. There is talk of recording image data only
in one system.
Is anyone else doing this and if so how? We (the artifact side of things)
are suggesting we expand our artifact catalogue to support the entry of
original image, audio or video formats as an object record and their digital
surrogate recorded in the multimedia section of the database.
What we are trying to do is ensure the integrity of the database by not
mixing apples and oranges.
Any and all advise welcome.
