I would like to continue receiving job postings. As someone who is
searching for full time employment, it is indeed encouraging to see all
these positions coming through. I see postings on this list that do not
come through on other lists or resources.
I would vote for including more information in the postings, as some
have come through without any details about the job or the hiring
institution, or links. Usually a little searching turns this up, but not
always.

I am with you on this! Actually, it is encouraging to see that there are many
job openings in this field. And the job descriptions give people a sense of
what skills the employers are looking for.

Too many job postings? I think there are fields where people would
kill to have this problem. :-)

Honestly, I'm surprised this hasn't come up sooner :-) In the
interests of "science" I've created a little poll to indicate whether
you think the job postings should be sent to the code4lib mailing list
or not:

If you care either way just click yes or no and I'll report the
results. But if you can't wait I made the spreadsheet public:

PS. Just fyi, shortimer will *not* re-post jobs to the discussion list
if the posting was discovered there. Typically the job postings that
shortimer posts to code4lib have been pulled from a source other than
the mailing list, which met some curatorial criteria as being relevant
for the code4lib community. If you care about influencing this
criteria I encourage you to help curate [1] the jobs.
