Put them into a directory that is in load-path. Then proceed, i.e.  
invoke load-library or require from *scratch* buffer or such.

The byte-compilation can save load-time. It's not needed to install  
them in a certain place – except: Mac OS X applications are not real  
files, but directory trees (or application "bundles"). (In Finder you  
can control-click on such an object and then choose "Show contents"  
from the pop-up context menu.) Most ELisp is "installed" inside the  
Carbon Emacs application bundle, but when you update, it's likely  
that the old contents of the application bundle is completely deleted  
and substituted with the contents of the new application bundle. So  
your files are best installed outside this application bundle. A good  
place would be ~/Library/Application Support/Emacs for you only, or  
system-wide /Library/Application Support/Emacs.

It's easy to add this element to load-path:

        (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/Library/Application  
Support/Emacs"))
