      Libraries, then click on Lib Manager.

    which you wish to delete the component(s).

3. Select Library -> List Objects...

4. In the List Objects dialog box, select the component(s)
    you wish to delete (use CTRL-click to select multiple
    components), then click the Delete button.

5. You will be asked if you want to manually confirm each
    deletion. If you are sure that you want to delete all the
    selcted components, you can uncheck the checkbox. Click
    Delete, then click Continue to begin deleting components.

6. If you checked the Confirm Each Object Deletion box, you
    will be prompted for each selected component. Click Yes
    to delete the component, or click No to abort deletion of
    this component.

7. Click Close, then select File -> Exit. If you called the
    Library Manager from the Schematic Editor, click Close to
    close the Libraries dialog box.
