There is a review of Al-Berghouti's Palestinian Arabic Dictionary by  
Haseeb Shehadeh in Languages and Linguistics, Issue No. 7, edited by  
Thami Benkirane & Moha Ennaji, 1A.  The journal URL is  
www.fesnet.ma/lang-ling/Plan7.htm.

I have not seen the review but Shehadeh is quoted as calling it "an  
invaluable contribution to...Palestinian Arabic language and culture."

Abd al-Latif al-Barghuthi's dictionary was self-published in Ramallah
in 2001. The full title in Arabic is:
al-Qamus al-‘arabi al-sha‘bi al-filastini - al-lahjah al-filastiniyah
al-darijah and there is an added title-page (and brief preface) in
English = Dictionary of colloquial Palestinian Arabic dialect.
Exeter's copy came via the Library's participation in a collaborative
acquisition scheme - I don't know how private individuals might
acquire it, as no address for Dr. Al-Barghuthi or even the printer is
given anywhere in the dictionary.
