Library file
Library files contain groups of often-used computer code that different programmes can share. Programmers who use library code make their programmes smaller since they do not need to include the code in their program. A virus that infects a library file automatically may appear to infect any programme using the library file. In Windows systems, the most common library file is the Dynamic Link Library; its extension is DLL.
