I have a web part page "DocLib1.aspx" in document library "DobLib1" and it has few webparts.
How can I take the same web part page and copy it to other document libraries (there are about 50+ document libraries). The web part page is named after the document library (with aspx extension). One of the web part is the list for the same doc lib where the web part is residing.

Unfortunately, the normal list view web parts (viewing lists and libraries in your site) are not exportable, and cannot be copied to another site or page. You'll have to recreate those on each page.
Answers. You can Export and Import the WebPart. In Design mode, select Add a web part. At the bottom of the Add Web Parts dialog box, click Advanced Web Part gallery and options.
Go to Site Pages and open the page. Next, click on the +New button > choose the option Copy of this page from the drop-down menu to make a copy of that page. This option does not work on the Homepages created by default. You need to create a new page on the site first and then publish it to do this copying function.
The web part page is named after the document library (with aspx extension). One of the web part is the list for the same doc lib where the web part is residing. Right click the page and select copy. Move it back to the original folder. All the WebParts will be intact.
This might seem elementary, but within SharePoint copying a page doesn't copy any of the WebPart on the page. That drove me bonkers. Hope this helps you. How do you get to the individual page in Designer 2010? When I click on the library all I see are the library properties.
There are two options to copy and paste a Sharepoint 2010 page and retain its web parts: Perform the copy and paste through Sharepoint Designer 2010. Access any page in Sharepoint Browser and go to Site Actions > Manage Content and Structure. Copy and paste is possible from here but copy and paste within the same directory can fail;
I've got a library that holds webpart pages, and whenever I need another page that is similar to one of the others in the library, I go to Library Tools > Library in the ribbon, and then Open with Explorer. From there, I simply Copy/Paste the webpart page that is similar to what I want into the same library and then rename the page.
This worked for me for SharePoint 2010:
