Hello Oren,
We use a sort of informal approach to implementing new Galaxy API features (they're implemented when the need arises), so unfortunately it doesn't look like the features you are looking for exist yet. If you'd like to contribute them, the community would certainly appreciate it!

Dear Greg,
Thank you so much, this is exactly what I need. I will use the API access (scripts/api/*.py) to create the new data library. I have two more questions:
- Is there an API function for deleting a library?
- Is there an API function to make a library accessible only to the user whose API key is passed in?

Oren,
The best way to do this would be to use galaxy data libraries, uploading files from file system paths and not copying the files into the Galaxy file location.
The following provides all of the details about data libraries:

The following provides specific details about the various options for uploading files to data libraries.

Let us know if you encounter any issues.

Dear All,
We have a large collection of large data files on our shared file system. We would like to make a subset of them available to a galaxy user session (based on user privileges; different subsets for different users). We want to leave files in their original locations and point galaxy to their paths without copying them. What is the best option for implementing this bridge? Remote data source/data library uploaded on the fly/other?
