The correct romanized form for חנה גפרית should be Gofrit
See VIAF http://viaf.org/viaf/6706417
The policy of the National Library in Jerusalem is to follow the romanized form 
of Library of Congress (also if it is wrong). The Hebrew form of her name in 
Hebrew script is:  גופרית

Thank you, Jasmin, for pointing out this romanization issue.

I am wondering if there should be reconsideration of the NAR for Gafrit, 
Ḥanah, 1935-

Hi, friends,

Per E-Sh, the above word is pronounced gofrit (i.e., the kamats under the gimel 
is a kamats katan). For the 8 libraries with holdings on on1193589324/lccn 
2020460321, בארות הגפרית הישנות, you may wish to correct your local catalogs.

Thanks, Jasmin
