How to install mongoose driver on nodejs?

Question

I have just started working with nodejs. I am a java script newbie. I have nodejs and mongodb running on my ubuntu. Now I downloaded the mongoose driver. Do I install it using npm or just copy the mongoose folder that has js files into nodejs lib folder? Also links to any tutorials to start working with this driver will help me a lot.

Regards, Lalith
