For your Libtool usage, I recommend the Libtool manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual.html>.

For general information about static and shared libraries, I guess this
wikipedia article should help: 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_library>

It links to texts from John Levine which are very good, also the
`Linkers and Libraries Guide' from Sun is good albeit a bit Solaris
specific.

Reading all of that will keep you busy for a couple of weeks though.
:-)

Cheers,
