Ah, but they charge for it.  Maybe there is a non-proprietary version?

Doesn't OCLC assign a Universal Unique Job Posting Identifier?

[CODE4LIB] duplicate jobs postings from jobs.code4lib.org

2012-05-18 Thread Ed Summers
I just wanted to apologize for 3 duplicate job postings that were sent
today. Now that there are multiple "job curators" who are finding jobs
and putting them on jobs.code4lib.org it is important to double check
that a job hasn't been posted already. At the minimum I think this is
a social convention that curators should follow if they want to post
jobs on jobs.code4lib.org. Perhaps there is something shortimer [1]
could do to help prevent this: such as warning when a given job URL
has been used before, etc.

Anyhow, thanks for your patience :-)
