It really depends on the library. Sometimes you look at the API of a library and you just want to wrap it because you know you're going to have to do a lot of work to get the data in and out of it in the right shape, or the lifecycle management is a pain, or the types involved aren't going to play well with tests, or it's just fundamentally relying on external state, thus preventing me writing proper unit tests of anything which might call it.

Other times, no, it doesn't seem worth it. And I don't do it for every single external library I use.

Although it does tend to end up being most of them - which seems to be a consequence of the way I've generally done n-tier application design at work. I'm not always a fan of this architecture, but sometimes it does fall out nicely.
