Are you trying to copy as root, or as a user? If you are trying as a
user, then you need to change the ownership or permissions of the
directory after you create it. (chown or chmod)

I am not logged in as root. I am logged in as a user. I need to get
files from my desktop and put them in here, /usr/local/lib/win32 . I
do not know what chmod or chown means. I read the manual on them but
do understand.
What I need to know is how to copy the files from my desktop and put
them in /usr/local/lib/win32 . I am not logged in as root.
