You can use either GUI or commands specific to Quartus (or ModelSim) and you either create library or map to existing one.

The simplest Quartus example is this:

qsf:

set_global_assignment -name VHDL_FILE C:/project1/my_package.vhd -library my_lib

(alternatively use add files to project => properties => library then see the commands added in qsf)

Then in vhdl:

library my_lib;

use my_lib.my_package.all;
