Re: [CODE4LIB] duplicate jobs postings from jobs.code4lib.org
Ah, but they charge for it. Maybe there is a non-proprietary version?

Doesn't OCLC assign a Universal Unique Job Posting Identifier? On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 6:17 AM, Ed Summers wrote: > ...

[CODE4LIB] duplicate jobs postings from jobs.code4lib.org
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 :-) //Ed [1] https://github.com/code4lib/shortimer
