well as you wish :) - you should probaly start to read man pages 
for programs like ldconfig and other programs
 - it might be quite useful.
 But to make it simplier you should now that you have to
 use LD_LIBRARY_PATH with 'export' - i.e.
 
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
 
 however you should probably rather modify this file:
 /etc/ld.so.conf
 and prepend this path into this file
 (I'd have suggest to put into the head of this file
 libs are searched in this order)
