[4] : The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03)
library
     
         a collection of subroutines and
        functions stored in one or more files, usually in compiled
        form, for linking with other programs.  libraries are one of
        the earliest forms of organised code reuse.  they are often
        supplied by the operating system or software development
        environment developer to be used in many different programs.
        the routines in a library may be general purpose or designed
        for some specific function such as three dimensional animated
        graphics.
     
        libraries are linked with the user's program to form a
        complete executable.  the linking may be static linking
        or, in some systems, dynamic linking.
