Not to dissuade you from SRW, but have you looked at ZOOM ?

There are some implementations, but I don't think there's a gateway to the
LoC database yet. Ray? Larry?
I could probably set one up with only minimal effort, but it would be in
the UK physically, which is rather a round trip.

Uhhh, yeah. At the moment it's rather chaotic with CQL 1.1 discussion.
It's not always like this :)
