   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}.
