You want so-called 'convenience library', see the docs for details.

Built by:
        foo/Makefile.am
                noinst_LTLIBRARIES=libfoo.la
                libfoo_la_SOURCES=foo.c
        Makefile.am
                SUBDIRS=foo
                lib_LTLIBRARIES=libbar.la
                libbar_la_LIBADD=foo/libfoo.la
                libbar_la_SOURCES=
                libbar_la_LDFLAGS=-release $(VERSION)


./.libs/libbar.so will be the final library with './foo/foo.c'.
