You plug your code into a framework. You plug a library into your code.

I think this definition is a good starting point for thinking about the difference between a framework and a library.

No definition is perfect. I admit that. But I do think, as you say, it's a decent starting point, to reason about how intrusive/assuming (or not) a piece of code is when we build on it.
