The MARC 856 field provides the linking mechanism to use. It would require having the server address for an individual file. This is what Library of Congress does for the images of their maps. Many of these also appear in other library OPACs (like ours). Instead of mapping to somebody else's site, you would map it to the public site where your image(s) are archived.

Hi,
Are any map librarians linking to their own map image database from a
Voyager catalog or from WorldCat Local? We do this for the David
Rumsey maps, but I wonder if anyone is linking from a map record in
their OPAC to the specific individual image in their own database of
map images.
Any information would be great. And in fact linking strategies from
any of the standard OPACs would be interesting.
