Denise,

I don't know if this fits the model that you're looking for, but we've
designed our delivery system to take advantage of the structure encoded for
books in TEI files.  We generate tables of contents based on <divs> and
provide navigation between chapters, and navigate between pages based on
<pb> tags that include IDs for page images.  We have used TEI this way
for  books with transcriptions and page images, and for books that only
have page images.
