Library modules are being deployed in the console

Question

Hi,
I am very new to this Weblogic Portal. I am using portal version 10.2
I developed a new application and tried to publish after adding the portal EAR project to the server. Whenever I publish along with the intended EAR project all the libraries are deployed as well.
See below for partial list
wlp-propagation-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-rest-full-web-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-rest-web-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-services-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-services-web-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-tools-admin-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-tools-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-tools-common-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-tools-content-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0) Active Library 100
wlp-tools-framework-app-lib(10.2.0,10.2.0)
What should I do to stop this from happening?
Sorry if this is a very basic question. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

This might not be the most appropriate forum for this. I would expect there is a forum more specific to the portal product. Nevertheless, I'll give you my take on this.
If you're deploying an EAR and while doing it it also deploys library modules, then it's likely that that EAR actually requires those library modules.
You can learn a bit about library modules at [http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs101/guide/ideuserguide/conWLJ2EELibraries.html] .
If it's possible that the application actually doesn't require a particular library module, you could try removing the reference to the library from the deployment descriptor and then redeploying and retesting. I would keep a backup copy of it, just in case.
