In general, there are two ways to add static library archives to projects using MSVC:

Thanks to Kylotan for the idea!
- In-code:
#pragma comment( lib, "libfile.lib" ) - Project Settings:
Open the Project Settings dialog, select the appropriate configuration (Debug, Release, All Configs or any custom/alternate platform configs you may have), click the Link tab and type the .lib file name in the list of files to be linked in (I typically just add it to the end). This requires that the .lib file be in one of the directories specified in your Tools->Options...->Directories (LIB option) dialog box. If it isn''t, either add it or see the next paragraph.
In the Project Settings dialog box, on the Link tab, select Input from the drop-down box. There, you can type in the name of the .lib file as well as any additional paths in which to search for .lib files (separated by semicolons).
Hope that helped.

Easiest way to add a directory of Librars is this path..
Tools(in the menu bar) - Options - Directories.
and there you can add Include directories, Library Directories and so on.
hope i was any help

Oops someone already said that =P
