I would catalog each bibliographic item by itself and use a LOCAL "Bound
with:" note (not 501 but 590).
The reason for the local field is that every library has different bound
volumes of Bibliyoteka Ivrit. I believe that originally those booklets were
printed as separate booklets and later they were bound or reprinted to form
the volume you have in hand.
I know - it is a lot of work ...
