Hallo all In response to my posting, Ms. Meira Harroch, Head of Hebrew Cataloging, Israeli National Library, sent me a private message and asked me to explain National library Policy to the list.
Their decision is based on the structure of the title page. If the Mishnah Berurah appears first, then the main entry will be under the Hafetz Hayyim. Where the phrasing emphasizes the Shulhan Arukh, i.e Shulhan Arukh with the commentary Mishnah Berurah, then the heading will be under Caro.
