We've got some slightly conflicting goals, then.
1) is what looks good in 'The XXX library part of openLilyLib'
2) what is unique and descriptive in the file system structure
3) what is *not* too long for people typing the name in a hurry, and
have mistake-prone fingers, like me.

How about openlilylib/oll-library?  (prefix all Open Lily Library
stuff at this level with oll, separate it with a hyphen[1]), or your
oll-lib suggestion above.

HTH
Cheers,
Ian

[1] The files within the directory or any parallel to this would not
need the oll- prefix however.
