I have a question about run-time dynamic linking.

I am working on a C program that during run-time must choose between
several different subroutines.  Ideally these run-time subroutines
should be "shareable images".  But is there a program callable routine
that will dynamically load an image, my reading of the linker is that
link to the shareable image is fixed at link time.  My program must choose
between one of many images after the program has started.

Can anyone point me to the proper routines?

Thanks in advance.
