When speaking of computers, refers to a collection of routines that perform operations which are commonly required by programs. Libraries may be shared, meaning that the library routines reside in a file separate from the programs that use them. Library routines may also be "statically linked" to a program, meaning that copies of the library routines required by that program are physically added to the program. Such statically linked binaries do not require the existence of any library files in order to execute. Programs linked against shared libraries will not execute unless the required libraries have been installed.
A library might be either a genomic library, or a cDNA library. In either case, the library is just a tube carrying a mixture of thousands of different clones - bacteria or l phages. Each clone carries an "insert" - the cloned DNA.

In computer terms, a library is a collection of similar files, such as source programs, stored together in a common area on tape and/or disks. Also, a collection of functions (subroutines) that are linked into the main program when it is compiled.
a collection of programming functions grouped together is refered to as a library. Libraries exist for an immence number of things, such as math functions, GUI functions, database functions, and many, many other things. Intended so programmers do not need to "reinvent the wheel," but rather can work on new code ideas. [ edit

In drug discovery, it refers to a collection of molecules. When the molecules are small-synthesized compounds, the collection is called a combinatorial chemistry library. Other examples are DNA libraries and antibody libraries.

In molecular biology: A set of cloned fragments together representing the entire genome. ( 13)
(1.) A collection of functions, calls, subroutines, or other data. (2.) A data file that contains copies of a number of individual files and control information that allows them to be accessed individually. (3.) In Ada-language library management, a database that stores the various intermediate code files produced by the compiler and records the dependency and order of compilation information as required by the Ada language specification. When compiling a unit that depends on other (previously compiled) units, the required dependency information (such as the package specification of a unit that is included with a with clause) is obtained from the library. Similarly, when an Ada program unit is to be linked, the library specifies the set of units that must be included to create an executable image.
( Drug discovery) It refers to a collection of Random Chemical Groups that are targeted, split, and pooled for use as drug leads. These libraries are usually addressed somehow so that once a lead is detected they can go back and see exactly how that one-in-a-million combination was synthesized. ( Molecular biology) It refers to a collection of bacterial cells or phage, each containing a unique recombinant DNA construct created from a digested chromosome, cDNA (from RNA) and protein (called an expression library). These cells or phages are transferred onto Biodyne A or B or BioTrace NT membranes for permanent attachment and detection.
n. 1. In programming, a collection of routines stored in a file. Each set of instructions in a library has a name, and each performs a different task. 2. A collection of software or data files.
A library is a collection of information resources and services, organized for use, and maintained by a public body, institution, or private individual. In the more traditional sense, it means a collection of books. This collection and services are used by people who choose not to — or cannot afford to — purchase an extensive collection themselves, who need material no individual can reasonably be expected to have, or who require professional assistance with their research.
In computer science, a library is a collection of subprograms used to develop software. Libraries contain "helper" code and data, which provide services to independent programs. This allows code and data to be shared and changed in a modular fashion.
In molecular biology, a library is a collection of molecules in a stable form that represents some aspect of an organism. Two common types of libraries are cDNA libraries (formed from Complementary DNA) and genomic libraries. The nucleotide sequences of interest are preserved as inserts to a plasmid or the genome of a bacteriophage that has been used to infect bacterial cells.
