15. Sifte Yeshenim (Bibliographic work)
Shabbethai ben Joseph Bass (b. 1641) first published Sefer sifte yeshenim in 1680. The book lists over 2,200 Hebrew works arranged alphabetically by title, along with other details including author and date, and includes a brief summary of each work. This catalogue was a monumental achievement and was the first detailed Hebrew bibliography to be published.
