University Of Florida Libraries Exactsearch Response

Verbatim live response from the UF Libraries Patron API exactsearch resource, truncated to the first hit. The API's `ip` field, which echoes the CALLER's own address back, has been REMOVED — it is our address, not UF data, and does not belong in a catalogued artifact.
