There's no static linking in .NET. Assemblies reference one another, like dynamic linking. As I mentioned in my first reply - and be sure to read the documentation I linked for more information - the assemblies are copied locally for runtime purposes. Yes, if they are copied locally they are referenced during compilation, but if you don't copy them locally than the assemblies' source paths are used instead.

If the CLR cannot resolve the assemblies that are referenced by the currently executing assembly, an exception is thrown. This is not any different than native DLLs not being found in the current directory or in any of the directories in your PATH environment variable, only the CLR does not use the same rules. I also discussed that in my first reply and linked the documentation for "How the Runtime Locations Assemblies", which you should really read to gain a better understand of just what assembly references mean to your libraries and/or applications. After all, if you're new to .NET programming you won't learn if you don't read.

If you use project references using the Projects tab in the Add References dialog, you need not worry about keeping the assemblies up to date, though I recommend that you never use automatic versioning by leaving the asterisk (*) in the AssemblyVersionAttribute. You can loose control quickly, and in .NET the versions are important unlike most native DLLs.
