It's likely you'll find drivers, not libraries. ;)

There also exists the ntfsprogs project, it's somewhat similar to mtools, but for NTFS filesystems.

Many of the tools can be compiled without FUSE support, although there are some portability issues for non-Linux systems, using the patches in FreeBSD ports might help work around some of those.

As was previously stated though, you really should do some initial research yourself.. or perhaps remember this place isn't twitter.

That's because NTFS is a difficult, proprietary format :)

This would be an excellent moment to consider implementing ext2 - especially since there are windows drivers for that.
