+PR_LoadLibrary
+==============
+
+Loads a referenced library.
+
+
+Syntax
+------
+
+.. code::
+
+   #include <prlink.h>
+
+   PRLibrary* PR_LoadLibrary(const char *name);
+
+
+Parameters
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The function has this parameter:
+
+``name``
+   A platform-dependent character array that names the library to be
+   loaded, as returned by :ref:`PR_GetLibraryName`.
+
+
+Returns
+~~~~~~~
+
+If successful, returns a reference to an opaque :ref:`PRLibrary` object.
+
+If the operation fails, returns ``NULL``. Use :ref:`PR_GetError` to find
+the reason for the failure.
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This function loads and returns a reference to the specified library.
+The returned reference becomes the library's identity. The function
+suppresses duplicate loading if the library is already known by the
+runtime.
+
+Each call to :ref:`PR_LoadLibrary` must be paired with a corresponding call
+to :ref:`PR_UnloadLibrary` in order to return the runtime to its original
+state.
