How to set the library location of installed R packages

Question

My issue is that the package path I installed in R terminal is different from where I installed in R-studio. So I'd like to change the install location. How can I do that ? Thanks

R terminal:

You can pass the lib argument to install.packages which specifies the library location. See ?install.packages:

 lib: character vector giving the library directories where to
      install the packages.  Recycled as needed.  If missing,
      defaults to the first element of ‘.libPaths()’.

Rstudio:

If you go to tools -> Install Packages, you can specify where to install your package in the dialog.
