1. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Kirjath-sepher
   city of books, Josh. 15:15; same as Kirjath-sannah (q.v.), now
   represented by the valley of ed-Dhaberiyeh, south-west of
   Hebron. The name of this town is an evidence that the Canaanites
   were acquainted with writing and books. "The town probably
   contained a noted school, or was the site of an oracle and the
   residence of some learned priest." The "books" were probably
   engraved stones or bricks.
   

2. Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's)
Kirjath-sepher, city of letters, or of the book
