Yes, correct.

If you go to http://www.boost.org you see title "Boost C++ Libraries".
It means, Boost is a *collection* of libraries covering wide range of areas.

You are the only person that knows what is the area of your interest,
then go to http://www.boost.org/libs/ and find library that matches it best,
in *your* own opinion.
