The reason your broker says no paper is available is because that house has none in inventory. That doesn't mean there's no paper to use for a short position at another firm.
In addition to its own inventory of stocks available for borrowing purposes, a respectable broker should also have the availability lists provided to them by other brokers. Depending on your status as a customer, you can ask your broker for access to those lists. In anyway when a broker house says that there is nothing available for your short order, it doesn't just based on its own inventory.
