Stanford's vufind implementation gets availability information for all the search results in one shot, so this can be displayed to the user in the search results. It would be good to port this over to blacklight.
This probably relates to the Jangle efforts, which could put this information in the index without it being too stale (and the live lookup could either be nixed, or could happen and take precedence in the UI, once values are returned.)
Individual institutions will have to struggle with this issue. Different ILS systems will have different drivers.
Naomi will get this working for Stanford/Sirsi, and then we'll refactor as necessary

Sooooo - this might not be appropriate for the plugin at this time. However, Stanford will have at least *something* along these lines, because we have something now in our VuFind implementation.
