This is based on my very old Listmania entry where I listed most Latin dictionaries known to me. I own a good number of the books listed here. Yes, even the Oxford Latin Dictionary. Unfortunately, most image links on this page are no longer working, but the dictionaries are still available, good as ever. And I would certainly like to encourage people not to trust online dictionaries with the exception of the Lewis & Short Latin dictionary (somewhat difficult to navigate, in my opinion). If you purchase the dictionaries via Amazon links on this page I will get a minuscule commision at no cost to you.
Oxford
Latin Dictionary
Author: P. G. W. Glare
The clarity of definitions in this dictionary is unmatched. Keep in
mind, however, that
this is a Classical Latin dictionary. If you are interested in later
Latin it will be of less help. A digitized version of OLD may already
be in the works.
Latin
Dictionary Founded on Andrew's Edition of Freund...
Author: Charlton T. Lewis, Charles Short, Wi...
Goes beyond Classical Latin. The structure of entries can be confusing
at times. This dictionary is pretty old, so you may found its early
editions online free of charge, as a searchable database as a part of the Perseus
project and also as a DJVU document

Elementary
Latin Dictionary
Author: Charlton T. Lewis;
A good "every day" dictionary for an advanced Latinist. Don't confuse
it with the "full" Lewis & Short! You will still need at least one
comprehensive dictionary. Personally, I have both OLD and L&S.
Cassell's
Latin Dictionary
Author: D. P. Simpson
Latin-English, English-Latin. Viewed by many as the best of the kind.
Chambers
Murray Latin-English Dictionary
Author: William Smith, John Lockwood;
Latin-English only, a good replacement for a "big" dictionary.
Mediae
Latinitatis Lexicon Minus
Author: J. F. Niermeyer, C. Van De Kieft, J....
A great dictionary, but if you can also get Blaise ("Dictionnaire
latin-français des auteurs chrétiens") and Du Cange
("Glossarium ad scriptores mediae et infimae latinitatis", volumes are
available at gallica.bnf.fr and archive.org)
Dictionary
of Ecclesiastical Latin
Author: Leo F. Stelten;
There are much better dictionaries of Later Latin, but for the price
this one will do. It is also well published.
Collins

Author: Harpercollins;
I happen to like the typesetting in this one

Gardener's
Latin
Author: Bill Neal, Barbara Damrosch;
Botanic Latin is ... well... a very special Latin. If that's what you
need, that's what you will get.
Langenscheidt's

Author: Langenscheidt
This one will actually fit in a shirt pocket. Far from being
comprehensive, but very convenient.
