Library Job RSS Feeds

17th October 2006, 09:23 pm

Thanks to those of you who sent in suggestions of library job sites with related RSS feeds. I’ve put a page up on LISjobs.com listing those I’m aware of; please do continue sending in suggestions for any additions. You can also download the associated OPML file for easy import into your newsreader of choice. Enjoy!

ETA: if you imported the OPML file earlier this afternoon, you might want to redo it, or manually add in LISjobs.com — apparently the online OPML generator I used skipped right over the feeds with an .asp extension.

    You forgot, or I couldn’t find, the combined LISJobs listing via RSS.

    RSS feed available! View new job listings directly in your aggregator.
    http://www.lisjobs.com/rss.asp

    Probably my favorite link on the site :) ..
    Best,

    Nice one.

    Looks like you could find more library job listings with this tool.

    Thanks, drweb — it looks like the free OPML file generator I used didn’t include it because it has an .asp extension, and missed a couple others as well. Grr.

    I’ve manually added them into the xml file and it looks like it’s working now.

    This is a very handy resource, but for any library or system that uses a regularly updated page, but does not offer an RSS feed for it, you can create your own feed using http://www.ponyfish.com.

    Jon, thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check it out! I’m not sure, though, how well it would work for sites whose job listings are inside a database?
