如何在vb.net项目中查找未使用的库

Question

I'm new to VB. I've assigned to the project is to be clean by removing unused references and unused libraries. As I'm new to this project I don't understand how the code written by previous developers. I understand that I can find unused references using Visual studio. For getting Unused libraries I don't see any option in Visual studio. I did research on the internet and I don't find any useful information regarding unused Libraries in the project. Can anyone help on in this.

Thanks in advance.
