In the caves were found several complete copies of Wisdom of Solomon, Tobit, Sirach, Esdras and others in Ancient Hebrew. While many experts agree that books with multiple copies were more important that those with few copies. The number and completeness of the books of Wisdom, Tobit, Sirach, Esdras and others clearly show that this community accepted these as important scriptural resources.
Considering the man made idea of "Canon" did not surface until late first century AD, this discovery should raise questions and doubt for those who have felt should not be included and validation for those who believe they should be included.
