InformationService for CollectiveAccess. Queries the Virtual Internet Authority Files (VIAF) for links to VIAF reference.
Structure, folders and documentation here mimics the IconClass Information Service by Karl Becker : https://github.com/karbecker/ca_iconclass

your_providence_install/app/lib/core/Plugins/InformationService/Tematres.php - Create a Metadata Element with Viaf as Information Service, let's call it "VIAF Reference", having viaf_reference as its idno.
Call it in Pawtucket2, the CA Frontend (for instance in a ca_objects_default_html.php if the Metadata Element is called viaf_reference (depending on what you chose before) :
{{{<a href="^ca_objects.viaf_reference.url">^ca_objects.viaf_reference</a>}}}
