	==== Installing additional ~~libraries ==~~==		== Installing additional modules ==
	Additional ~~libraries can~~ be installed by adding ~~them to~~ the ~~/system/python/Lib folder of your XBMC installation. A Python~~ module ~~placed in this folder can be called from any script or plugin within XBMC.~~		Additional modules may be installed by simply adding the module to the root folder of your add-on.

	~~Of course, you can also place the library files you want~~ to ~~import in your script or plugin folder, directly in~~ the root ~~or in a subfolder. A popular method is to add a "resources" subfolder to~~ your ~~script's folder, and~~ add ~~it to the path within your script~~.

	~~If you are going~~ to ~~use a module~~ that ~~will possibly used by more~~ add-on ~~you can better create~~ a ~~separate add~~-~~on of this so more add-ons can make use of~~ it. ~~Be sure to checkout which~~ modules ~~are already available~~ from ~~our XBMC repository by looking at http://mirrors.xbmc.org~~/~~addons/ and choose the XBMC version your are developing for~~.		A common way to organized third-party modules that are not part of add-on source code itself, is to add a <code>lib</code> directory and place an <code>__init__.py</code> file and other third-party modules inside it. These modules may then normally be imported using <code>from lib import somemodule</code>.
