Open the "Preferences" dialogue and select the "Libraries" tab. Then add the location where the Scratch for Java jar is located. Restart BlueJ - done. Scratch for Java will now be available in all of your projects that you open.

System Wide

You need to locate the "userlib" folder, found at <bluej-dir>/lib/userlib. Place the Scratch for Java jar into this folder. Restart BlueJ - done. Scratch for Java will now be available in all projects for all users.

If you have installed BlueJ via the installer you probably find the "userlib" folder here:

Windows: C:\Program Files\BlueJ\lib\userlib
MacOS: /Application/BlueJ/BlueJ.app/Resources/java/userlib
Linux: /usr/share/bluej/userlib/

Standalone

You need to add the Jar file for your operating system to the classpath.
