The good place to start to learn is usually in Info, a hypertext 
documentation system inside Emacs. You reach it by typing

    C-h r

or via the menus

    Help - Read the Emacs Manual

(This is how it looks in Emacs 22, now in pretest.)

Another starting place might be http://www.EmacsWiki.org/.


Interactive commands (load-library is that) can be called like

    M-x load-library
