(If your internet browser automatically adds the extension ".txt" to the saved files, then you must delete it manually. In any case there should only be one copy of a library in the above mentioned directory.)

The libraries offered on this site are also released after the release of a regular update. But they are beta versions, which are thought for testing. So use them with care!
