In recent versions of Finale, I will sometimes create a new (or select an existing) passage of music that has the expression, articulations, and or custom smart shapes I want and copy that measure into the new document. Then clear the measure in the new doc. (As long as you don't use Undo, the transferred exp/artic/custom line defs remain.) I often find this quicker than using a library.
But you can also create libraries of sets of things by importing a library from an existing doc into a "New Doc without Libraries". You then remove all the items you don't want and export the libary again. That becomes a lightweight library that you can import into any doc where you want the set of items.
