Yes, you need to create a directory named templatetags, and put your
tag library in a module inside that directory. When Django looks
parses your template and find the {% load mytaglibrary %} declaration
(which is what tells it to load the tag) it looks for a directory
named templatetag in each of apps in your project. If you don't put
your tag in the right place, Django won't be able to find your custom
tag.
