Description
Feature request for data packaging:
When we're doing level2-cleanup we go through a whole bunch of loops over books calling this function: https://github.com/simonsobs/sotodlib/blob/af7c733fb3559f692df07b0cac71ce1011bc787d/sotodlib/io/imprinter.py#L1793
But, checking while the LAT cleanup looks like it's hanging, if one of the librarians is down this loop takes forever and goes no-where. Could we get some sort of higher level response of "just stop bothering to check right now" ??

Research direction
Start by reading the function linked in sotodlib/io/imprinter.py at line 1793 and trace how level2-cleanup handles its result while iterating over books. Define the higher-level response for the case where a librarian is unavailable, then verify that the cleanup loop can recognize the all-librarians-down condition and stop checking.
