Jim Sloan, of TAATOOL fame, has a command that solves this problem:
ADDJOBDLIB ADD JOB DESCRIPTION LIBRARY TAAJBDD
---------- --------------------------- -------
The Add Job Description library tool supports the ADDJOBDLIB and
RMVJOBDLIB commands to add or remove a single library from the
INLLIBL parameter of one, all, or generic job descriptions in a
library. A POSITION parameter similar to ADDLIBLE is supported.
This simplifies mass changes to job descriptions or the simple step
of adding or removing a library.
A typical command to add library LIBA to all job descriptions
beginning with the name ABC in library LIB1 would be:
ADDJOBDLIB JOBD(LIB1/ABC*) LIB(LIBA)
By default, the library is added at the end of the existing libraries
in the INLLIBL parameter of each job description. A POSITION
parameter exists (similar to ADDLIBLE) to allow the library to be
added as the first library, the last library, after or before a
reference library, or to replace a library.
A typical command to add LIBA after LIBB to a job description would
be:
ADDJOBDLIB JOBD(xxx) LIB(LIBA) POSITION(*AFTER LIBB)
The POSITION parameter may also be used when multiple job
descriptions are changed.

Subject: JobD update challenge - How to?
I need to insert a new lib into many jobd's, and each jobd can have
different lib lists. If a lib exists in the jobd lib list, I need to
add the new lib just ahead of the existing one in the list. In other
words, I need to search 50+ jobd's for libX, if libX exists in a jobd, I
need to insert libY just ahead of it. Doing this manually seems very
tedious, especially since the new lib needs to be put in the middle of
the stack.
Any ideas?
Tim
