I've seen a number of tutorials that describe how to bring in a dll in
python, but does anybody know of a tutorial for how to bring in a lib? Is
it even possible?

Thanks, in advance!

Look at the Python module named ctypes:

It appears that every example is calling a dll, and I'm looking to bring in
a lib. Does ctypes work with libs too?

I don't know if it's possible, but why do you want to do it? .lib
files in Windows are static libraries, which traditionally aren't
loaded dynamically. Is there some reason you can't use a DLL?

No. ctypes relies upon the OS to actually load the library, and the OS
doesn't provide any mechanism to load a ".lib" file.
