A package is a set of libraries which can for example be deployed to pub.dartlang.org. I guess this is similar to a jar file.
A library is one Dart script file with or without a name (or a set of Dart script files with part/part of) and is the boundary for privacy. Private members are only visible or accessible from within the same library.
