I'm wondering what is the best practice for when to delete a library. For example, if I have multiple stacks in memory that all access the same library stack, I can't stop using it until the last stack closes. Should I implement some sort of count mechanism to determine when it's safe to stop using the library? Or just leave it in memory until I quit LC?
