14.6 Library of Babel
=====================
The “Library of Babel” consists of code blocks that can be called from
any Org mode file. Code blocks defined in the “Library of Babel” can be
called remotely as if they were in the current Org mode buffer (see
Evaluating code blocks for information on the syntax of remote
code block evaluation).
The central repository of code blocks in the “Library of Babel” is
housed in an Org mode file located in the ‘contrib’ directory of Org
mode.
Users can add code blocks they believe to be generally useful to
their “Library of Babel.” The code blocks can be stored in any Org mode
file and then loaded into the library with ‘org-babel-lob-ingest’.
Code blocks located in any Org mode file can be loaded into the
“Library of Babel” with the ‘org-babel-lob-ingest’ function, bound to
‘C-c C-v i’.
