"Library" in Emacs/Elisp has long meant what I said.
Lisp files (e.g. `dired.el') or sets of files (e.g.
Gnus) included with Emacs (perhaps autoloaded) are
referred to as libraries.
You don't need to download them separately. And
being part of Emacs, they're "standard", if you like.
And they're typically not packages. The only ones
that are also packages are (I think) those that are
also available from a package repository. I think
this is the case for Org, for example.
