--- Comment #12 from Christopher Brannon <cbrannon at cdalibrary.org> ---
Still chewing on this.

You wouldn't have to have a separate table to link libraries, shelving
locations and maps, if you created specific shelving locations for each
library, limiting that location to that library.  That would create a long
shelving locations table, but it would mean not creating a new table, and if
you are limiting to the library, that library is only seeing their shelving
locations.  Theoretically, that would work.  With each unique shelving location
code, I would create a separate Authorized Value in a category like
SHELVINGMAPS, and use the same shelving location code, and provide the url.

In jQuery, I would find the itemnumber, get the shelving code, and then link
the map.

This would be more ideal if it were built in.

Better yet, if I am going to the trouble of creating individual shelving
locations for each library, why not take advantage of the icons for that
location.  It would be great if we could upload our own images for a custom
icon, and just define the map in the shelving location.  (Unless the icons for
shelving locations are actually used somewhere.)
