@HD2(Libraries Used Explicitly)

These are libraries which you must load with M-X Load
Library<libname><cr> to use.  If no cross-reference is given, the
only documentation for the library is the self-documentation contained
in it.  Use M-X List Library<libname><cr> to print a brief
description of each function in the library.  For more detailed
information, load the library and use M-X Describe on individual
functions.
