I've heard that everything in Python is an object, does that mean that everything in python is a part of a class...?

...and that 'python' itself is made up of a different classes? Is a group of classes called a library?

Yes, everything is an object... derived from a class. I would say the library contains modules that contain classes. Here is a list of Python 3 modules.
