If the slides are cataloged in a relational database, the list of slides can
be linked to a list of presentations.  My experience with high-powered
databases is quite limited, but even DataPerfect, the WordPerfect DOS
database, could set up linked sets of information so that each presentation
record would have its set of slides, enumerated by slide ID number.  That
number would also appear in the record for the slide and the two
(presentation and slide) records would be readily linked.  You could find
out which slides were in a presentation and just as easily determine which
presentations used a given slide.

Does that help?
