Reusability is the likelihood and potential for a piece of source code to be reused in other projects

In computer science and software engineering, reusability is the likelihood a segment of source code that can be used again to add new functionalities with slight or no modification. Reusable modules and classes reduce implementation time, increase the likelihood that prior testing and use has eliminated bugs and localizes code modifications when a change in implementation is required.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reusability
