ContentDM (now owned by OCLC) regularly publishes "featured collections on ContentDM". Some of the recent ones I thought were kind of cool are:
Civil War Letters Collection - University of Washington
http://content.lib.washington.edu/civilwarweb/index.html
E-Archives of Purdue University
http://e-archives.lib.purdue.edu/
Historic Des Moines, Iowa Pictures - Drake University
http://www.lib.drake.edu/heritage/odm/
The entire Collection of Collections is at http://www.contentdm.com/customers/index.html.
I just think it is so cool that all this history, previously unknown to any but the most avid devotees for that particular area of knowledge, are now being made so widely available. The historian and the digital designer in me are both happy!
