There are several ways:

• Click on the Source tab and the Link Source button and add the root folder containing Library and click Finish
• Now click on the Projects tab and click the Add button to add your 'Library'. Click Ok and you're done

B. Import Jar When you compile your eclipse project it creates a jar for your project in the 'Build' subfolder of the root directory of your project. To import that in you current project:

• Again Right click your project in the project explorer
• Select Properties-->Java build Path
• Click on the Libraries tab and click Add External JARs. Navigate to the folder containing Library.jar and click Finish and click Ok

You should now be able to import your names from your Library Project
