--- Quote from: Martin Iturbide on September 04, 2014, 05:20:14 pm ---Maybe I have a misconception. I define a  "Library" like both, the DLLs (Binaries) required to run applications and the tools (docs, source code samples) that helps developers to create applications easily with a set of pre-created and shared functions.

--- End quote ---
The DLLs are typically (but as you've probably seen not consistently) called runtimes rather than libraries.  Libraries are more typically the files used to build software and a runtime DLL may be required for applications built with them (though they can be built in statically and require a DLL).
I should also mention that not all DLLs are runtimes by this definition.
