Hello master's
i am new to eagle and started making sch currently. so i eagle don't have library for MCP2551 (can transceiver).
where i can get libraries for my future use.

and how to make own library.
 

If you want to make one yourself - use make-symbol-device-package-bsdl ULP (documentation in Eagle's doc directory).
It would automatically produce part, symbol and package from a list of pin names and numbers, i.e. from a datasheet.

For generic stuff there are libraries of standard packages and sockets around - i.e. dp_devices.lbr.
But they won't have the pins/pads named, only numbered.
 

SOIC package:

DIP package:

on left site (in middle) you see:

CAD CadSoft_EAGLE (2.63KB) EN CAD CadSoft_EAGLE (2.63KB) EN

download and follow tutorial in readme.txt file:
"
To import your new library into EAGLE:

1. Start EAGLE.
2. Select File -> New -> Library from the menu.
3. In the blank library window, select File -> Script from the menu.
4. Select the EDIT tab.
5. Browse to the correct EAGLE Script file (".scr" file extension) in the file "Open" window.
6. After opening the file, the script will populate the new library.
7. Use File -> Save (or Save As..) to save the library to the desired location in EAGLE native format.
