[Heb-NACO] proposed instruction on conventional collective titles

LC-PCC PS 25.1 
  For compilations of works, give an analytical authorized access point for the predominant or first work in the compilation when it represents a substantial part of the resource. Disregard contributions such as a preface or introductory chapter. Generally, do not apply this core element to anthologies of poetry, hymnals, conference proceedings, journals, collections of interviews or letters, and similar resources. 

The key phrase here is "WHEN IT REPRESENTS A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF THE RESOURCE". 

In other words its the cataloger's judgement as to whether there really is a predominant or first work which takes up much of the resource. If in one's judgement there isn't, then we do not need to make an analyitical authorized access point for it.

(sorry, sent too soon) 

Often in such cases it is not clear which is the " first or predominant work" -- it's all just one big jumble.

What is one to do in a case where several such terms are given in a book's title? E.g.: 

Sefer Yalḳuṭ ʻavodat Yiśraʼel : ḳevutsat maʼamarim, liḳuṭim yeḳarim, ʻal seder parashiyot ha-Torah ... / me-et Yiśraʼel, magid me-yesharim di-ḳḳ. Ḳoznits ; nilḳeṭu, neʻerkhu ṿe-sudru be-tseruf meḳorot, ʻiyunim ṿe-heʻarot ʻa. y. Mosheh Yeḥezḳel ha-Leṿi Blumenberg. (lccn2005352488)

PROPOSED NEW SECTION FOR HCM 2 ND ED 
Joan Biella and Heidi Lerner 
  
The use of conventional collective titles is considerably expanded under RDA, owing to the fact that a distinction between “adequate” and “inadequate” titles proper, as described in LCRI 25.10, is no longer made.  Any compilation of two or more but not all of the works of a single person, family, or corporate body requires a conventional collective title followed by “Selections,” (cf. LC-PCC PS for the Alternative to 6.2.2.10.3).   
  
For some types of compilations, an authorized access point for the first or predominant work in the compilation is also required (cf. LC-PCC PS for 26.1). 
  
6.2.2.10.3 Other Compilations of Two or More Works, LC practice for the Alternative 
  
For a compilation consisting of two or more but not all the works of one person, family, or corporate body, in a particular form, record a conventional collective title followed by “Selections.”  Give an authorized access point for the first or predominant work (Policy Statement 25.1) or expression (Policy Statement 26.1). 
  
LC-PCC PS for 26.1 Related Expression 
For compilations of expressions other than those which include the original expression and one or more translations, give an analytical authorized access point for the predominant or first expression in the compilation when it represents a substantial part of the resource. Disregard contributions such as a preface or introductory chapter. Generally, do not apply this core element to anthologies of poetry, hymnals, conference proceedings, journals, collections of interviews or letters, and similar resources. 
  
Instruction 6.2.2.10.2  Complete Works in a Single Form provides a list of frequently-used conventional collective titles, and adds “ If none of these terms is appropriate, record an appropriate specific collective title (e.g., Posters, Fragments, Encyclicals).” 
  
                        Correspondence                                 Poems 
                        Essays                                                            Prose works 
                        Novels                                                 Short stories 
                        Plays                                                   Speeches 
  
For specific types of works often compiled in religious Hebrew publishing, use the following table (when catalogers’ judgment permits): 
  
be ’ urim 	
Commentaries. Selections 

derashot 	
Sermons. Selections 

devarim 	
Works. Selections 

ertseylungen (about a rabbi) 	
Anecdotes. Selections 

halakhot 	
Religious laws. Selections 

he ‘ arot, he ’ arot

ḥ idushim 	
Novellae. Selections

shi ‘ urim

sipurim (about a rabbi)

Or, looked at the other way around: 
  
Anecdotes. Selections

Commentaries. Selections
