Here's an idea. Call a local welding supply company, and see if they can get you some liquid helium.
Consider calling one in a nearby bigger city.
Consider calling a not-so-nearby bigger city.
Ask their LHe rate first, then tell them it's an emergency, and give them a time frame of need.

Subject: AMMRL: no liquid helium?
Howdy,
I have been told by our facilities manager that She can not get enough liquid helium for our 3 NMR magnets. She has contacted both A-Ox and Praxair.
Does anyone have any ideas of what we can do?
Thank you very much.
Jay
