Does Go not have the concept of linking? If you are deploying several Go applications on the same server that each use libraries, does it include duplication of libraries in every binary?
There is no linking. Each Go binary has all of the libraries it needs baked into it.
So if you have multiple different Go applications on one server, and they use some of the same libraries, then each application's binary will contain a copy of that library.
It makes things a little redundant, but also simplifies the deployment process.
edit: The only exception is if you are using cgo and liking to existing C libraries. In pure Go there is no linking.
