Git submodule or subtree is a typical strategy for such
cases. I would not worry too much about crowding GitHub;
you can "pin" important repositories at the top to make them
more visible than library repositories.
(see our GitHub as an example: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/3dem__;!!Mih3wA!DQPHgkAGlnMl3FH5pHgvCzTuyIRX80eTGEku88brNoY1IiV0Z8B2B5aXWp1QAek1fl9YxXKqx0GE-000yDLcba54CKLH-pfkPPU$ )
