The best place to put the package is in a folder that is in the user's Application directory. You can find this folder by evaluating $UserBaseDirectory in Version 5 or later. ($AddOnsDirectory in Version 4) or you could use $BaseDirectory. In that directory you should find a Folder named Applications. Now suppose you have a package named MyPackage and you want to keep it in a logical place, say PhysicsCourse. Then create a folder named PhysicsCourse in the Applications folder. Put your package in the PhysicsCourse folder. Write the BeginPackage statement as BeginPackage["PhysicsCourse`MyPackage`"] Note that the BeginPackage statement has to give the path from the Applications folder down to the package. Mathematica knows enough to look in the Applications folder. If your create the package with a package notebook, MyPackage.nb that has Initialization cells for all of the package statements, then choose AutoSavePackage when you first save the notebook. This will create the package file MyPackage.m. Load the package with <<PhysicsCourse`MyPackage` or Needs["PhysicsCourse`MyPackage`"] Hope that helps.
