Users can have their own R packages installed. The following steps have to be done:

Create a .Renviron file, using 'vi' e.g.:
```
vi ${HOME}/.Renviron 
```
The content of this file points to the directory of your personal libraries, e.g.:
```
R_LIBS=${HOME}/R/lib
```
create the directory, which was specified in .Renviron:
```
mkdir -p ${HOME}/R/lib 
```
start R and install packages:
```
install.packages('sp')
```
