+==== Install Packages to Anaconda Python ====
+
+'conda' is the command to add packages to Anaconda python distribution. However, since you don't have a permission in /share/apps/anaconda, it won't work.
+There is a workaround. Here, for example, we want to add 'vtk' python wrapper library.
+
+ {{{
+conda install vtk
+}}}
+
+But you will see an error message with an instruction for the workaround. Following the instruction, you have to clone the python environment into your home directory by
+
+ {{{
+conda create -n my_root --clone=/share/apps/anaconda/2/2.5.0
+}}}
+
+'my_root' is the name of environment that you decide. 
+Then,
+
+ {{{
+source activate my_root
+}}}
+
+Finally, you can install the package,
+
+ {{{
+conda install vtk
+}}}
+
+In case you encounter "Error: 'conda' can only be installed into the root environment", try
+
+{{{
+conda remove conda-build
+conda remoce conda-env
+conda update -all
+conda install vtk
+}}}
+
+From next time, to use Anaconda python with your environment,
+ {{{
+module load anaconda
+source activate my_root
+}}}
+You have to state above commands in your script when you run python on batch jobs.
