For preferred way read bellow this answer:

If you need to add a library to the Android Studio project navigate to your project folder with default path at: \YourProjectName\app\libs

You can paste your *.jar library there. Make sure your build.gradle contain this directive at dependencies part:

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}

To see the library at the Android Studio, switch to the "Project" view at the menu: Android Studio Project view

Preffered way:

Preferred way to import libraries to your project is by gradle dependency system. To do so, open your build.gradle file and locate the dependencies part. To import the library you mentioned, Volley, your dependencies part should look somehow like this:

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.mcxiaoke.volley:library:1.0.10'
}

You don't need to import the *.jar library manually any more. Gradle dependencies system will take care of it.

To find gradle dependency you need, you might use tools like:
