Libraries should go to ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries/ folder. This way when you upgrade Arduino IDE it wont overwrite your libraries. If Arduino IDE does not show your recently added library you need to restart the IDE.

I can't find a folder called 'Library' for my own version (0017).

If you mean the preferences.txt that goes in "/Users//Library/Arduino".

Otherwise all libraries are inside the package (right click on the Arduino icon to access) then contained in "/Contents/Resources/Java" there are 'lib' and 'libaries' folders.

Hope that helps a little :)
