Which is odd, because the plugin is what found the link in the first place???
The part of the plugin that handles checking current availability doesn't deal well with books no longer being present at the library, as you found out. I will add a more informative error message in this case.

I am assuming that this is a case of a book being removed from the library's collection sometime between when a search linked it and when you did a check for its current availability. If the book still is being found by search, but not by the availability check then there is a bug and I will need more details from you in order to diagnose it.

The plugin has a configuration option, "Unlink books if no longer found by search", which will cause links for books that are no longer at the library to be removed. If this is not set then the plugin will retain links for books that have been removed from a library's collection. I suggest setting that option and doing a new search to clear out non-functional links.
