The earliest programming concepts analogous to libraries were intended to separate data definitions from the program implementation. The COMPOOL (Communication Pool) concept was brought to popular attention by JOVIAL in 1959, although it borrowed the idea from the large-system SAGE software. Following the computer science principles of Separation of Concerns and Information Hiding, "Comm Pool's purpose was to permit the sharing of System Data among many programs by providing a centralized data description."
