C# class library project dependency injection bootstrap

I recently used Dependency Injection pattern with Autofac as the IoC Container.

Normally, I would use it inside core application (Winform, WCF, WPF etc).

Currently I'm learning to create a class library project as a framework for my peer developers, and I tend to stick with the DI pattern since it allows me to unit test as I go.

How do I configure the IoC Container in a class library project without an entry point?

Should I just make something like : 

public static void ConfigureLibrary() {
     //.. Do bootstraping here
}

and let core application to call it when the core app start?
