I’d like to repeat and stress Jasmin’s endorsement of a “consistent,
standard practice.” Certain questions like this one arise over and over
again in Hebraica cataloging, and can be settled only by adopting a
standard—there is one, generally used by the largest libraries. Teach the
standard.
In my time at LC we never tackled this, mostly because we almost never
needed it. Personally, I always turned to Jastrow first, but this practice
was not codified.

Chiming in late, I agree that we should follow Even-Shoshan, but adding

We used to say, if a heading is not WRONG, don’t change it, because of the
incalculable number of physical catalog cards that would have to be
manually changed to match. Perhaps in the digital era we should forget
this?

Dear friends,
This kind of question comes up regularly--probably with all romanized
languages with a policy of following the advice of a particular,
"authoritative" dictionary. There are two choices: (1) advise catalogers
