Go to the "References" part of your class library and select "Add Reference". Look for an assembly called "PresentationCore" and add it.

Then in your class file add the using statement using System.Windows.Input;

Just adding: lots of guys when they go to create a class library, they select "WPF Custom Control Library" and then erase the "Class1.cs" file. It's a shortcut that automatically adds the right namespaces to your library. Whether it's a good or bad shortcut is anybody's call, but I use it all the time.
