"library" doesn't really mean anything specifically to Python's
interpreter. It's not a valid keyword and is only used by humans to
describe the abstract function and nature of a bunch of arbitrary Python
code, usually in a module or library.
Python does have a concept of modules and packages. Both serve the same
purpose, which is to bring together a collection of attributes into a
namespace that can be imported into the current namespace (IE a library!).
