Copying custom folder from install package

I created a component for joomla 3.2. It has a folder with framework files (folder name is forms). How can I transfer this folder to joomlaroot/libraries/ folder ?

Can this be done only using manifest file, or I need to use install.component.php file ? If yes, how can I specify path of 'forms' folder?

I guess I should use something like:

class com_ComponentInstallerScript
{
function install( $parent ) 
{
jimport('joomla.filesystem.folder');
jimport('joomla.filesystem.file');
$target= 'forms';
$destination = JPATH_ROOT.'/libraries/';

JFolder::copy($target, $destination);
}
}

The Joomla installer has adapters for single files and for libraries, so what you would do is just package in that way. Then you can put your whole install package into a combined install.
