If you turn on OpenLibrarySearch results are often not returned and only the
text "Open Library:" displays.

Firstly, if there is nothing to return we should display nothing.

Secondly, it does look like any of these records do return data but the API has
changed, I think. Koha checks to see if "items: []" has length and returns
false if this is true.

But I am finding many records where the data seems to be present:
(https://openlibrary.org/api/volumes/brief/json/id:0;isbn:067002662X;lccn:__2012035454)
but items contains nothing. 

I don't know anything about the OpenLibrary API, but perhaps it has changed.

TO RECREATE:
1. turn on OpenLibrarySearch
2. go to the opac results page and opac details page and see many records that
just display "Open Library: " and nothing else.
