Although in theory it's the latest possible
version of the Encyclopedia Judaica that's authoritative,
it's not practical to
try to enforce this since we all
have access to different editions (and
printings). We should record the copyright date
accurately but not worry about the printing date. If
someone discovers that a different printing
has a new vocalization for a name, that
that person should record the new form citing the relevant
printing date (and make a ref if needed), but not
try to determine or record the printing date of the already-recorded
differing form.
Encyclopedia Judaica on CD-ROM
In DCM Z1, 670 p. 3 it says:
In citations for publications viewed electronically, either by direct
or remote access, give information in subfield $a in the context of the
publication rather than how it was viewed; in subfield $b, give location
and information.
