I have a library part that I'm working on. It has multiple GND pins, but I
only want one GND pin connected in the schematic. How do I connect them?

You have to put as many GND pins on your schematic symbol as you have GND
pads in the footprint. You can name these pins GND@1, GND@2, etc., which
will cause them to show up as simply GND when you place the symbol in your
schematic.
It seems that all of us initially feel there ought to be a way to have a
single pin the schematic symbol connect to multiple pads in the footprint,
but once you get over the mental block, it turns out life goes on just fine
with multiple pins in the schematic symbol.

Thanks. Yeah, it's a bit weird, but it works just fine with multiple pins.
