Sharing code is recommended. This is done by using shared libraries. 
Convenience libraries (if I understood you properly) are static libraries - a 
no-longer-needed workaround for autotools.
And as Christian said, these were used once. If these were used more than 
once, it's reasonable to provede them as shared libs, not as static.
