Applying LGPL to a library ensures that the library itself and any modified versions of it will remain open source. But it can be used by closed source software.

You can use and distribute LGPL libraries on your website and use them in combination with commercial code. The only big restriction is that you must keep the library open source, including any modifications you make to it, and allow your users to obtain the source, licence and copyright information for the library.
