 A device, device set, package or symbol can be removed from a library via the Library menu. To remove, you must open that device in the type Library Editor window first and then select from the menu the option Library -> Remove... and enter the name which refers to what you want to delete. (The package, symbol or device.) If it stills shows up in the concerning Library in the Control Panel, save the Library with the removed item. A device, device set, package or symbol can be removed from a library via the Library menu.
