First, make sure that the RCL library is selected for use. You can do that from
the Eagle Control Panel by expanding the Libraries folder and making sure that
there is a Green Dot beside the RCL.lbr entry. If not, "Right Click" on RCL.lbr
and select "Use". Only libraries that are selected for use, are available to
add components from.
Then in your schematic click "Add" (AND Gate w/ Cursor in Eagle toolbar), expand
the RCL library and select the resistor package you plan to use. You can change
the package later if you need to by using the "Change Package" command (see
Eagle Help).
If you haven't done so already, spend a few minutes going through the Eagle
Tutorial. I think you will find that it saves you lots of time in the end.
