Jill,

If you want to pull the bib and item details from the III database, our 
library is running a utility that does that using the bibnumber as the 
lookup key.

Your Aquabrowser install has a 'Request Item' button and a permalink 
that contains the III bib number (e.g. b231527).  So you could write a 
little JavaScript to parse out the bib number and then pass that to a 
web app that gathers user input and sends the SMS.

1) working example - http://pegasus.law.columbia.edu/record=b480398
2) code for the server side app using the Python webpy framework -

3) Majax2 from Godmar Back of VA Tech which does the III parsing -

But we also use Aquabrower as a front end.  I'm wondering if anyone in Code4lib Land has a text message app working on Aquabrower and how it works.  Jill
