Hey Katie,

It seems to me that you only downloaded the package and it sits in your 
temp folder on your local machine  (in

/tmp/RtmpdNkFx1/downloaded_packages)

You have to tell R to install this package.. i don't have the Windows R window in front of me, but it should sound like 'install packages' and you may need to tell it where to find the package you downloaded.. at least, that's what I had to do last time.

hope this helps.
