There is an earlier contemporary positive use of Lilith. Beginning in January 1971, the Hebrew University Student's Union began publishing an English-language magazine, Lillit (note spelling). It published articles, editorials, and poetry by the many English speaking students (largely but not all American), many on one-year or other programs at Hebrew U. It existed until at around 1973. When I looked at the back issues a couple of years ago (HUC library in Cincinnati) there was no explanation of the choice of name. Note that there is no direct connection to the US feminist magazine, noted above, founded 1976. I do wonder if any of the founders were at Hebrew University in this time period, however.
