hi !

(sorry for my bad english)

A simple way is to give a look at the file pgfmanual-en-main.tex
and like Till Tantau you can put all the next lines in your code


\usepackage{tikz}

% We need lots of libraries...
\usetikzlibrary{%
   arrows,%
   calc,%
   fit,%
   patterns,%
   plotmarks,%
   shapes.geometric,%
   shapes.misc,%
   shapes.symbols,%
   shapes.arrows,%
   shapes.callouts,%
   shapes.multipart,%
   shapes.gates.logic.US,%
   shapes.gates.logic.IEC,%
   er,%
   automata,%
   backgrounds,%
   chains,%
   topaths,%
   trees,%
   petri,%
   mindmap,%
   matrix,%
   calendar,%
   folding,%
   fadings,%
   through,%
   positioning,%
   scopes,%
   decorations.fractals,%
   decorations.shapes,%
   decorations.text,%
   decorations.pathmorphing,%
   decorations.pathreplacing,%
   decorations.footprints,%
   decorations.markings,%
   shadows}

Then you can follow the good advices of David to make  some choices  
between all these librairies.
