It's not a text file but there is a web form where you can look up
the symbols:
http://www.oclc.org/contacts/libraries/default.htm
The panizzi bot in #code4lib [1] actually has a built in hack so you
can do lookups:
23:07 < edsu> @inst MDAVP
23:07 < panizzi> edsu: AMERICAN INST OF PHYSICS COLLEGE PARK, MD
20740 UNITED
STATES
The python code is available [2]. Scan for the inst method if you are
interested.
