How can I Import a custom library

Is there a way to get my custom library on Quantopian?
I have some libraries of common things and copy/paste them in each algorithm. It would be easier to manage, if I could just import them.

There currently isn't an option to import custom libraries into Quantopian. The only libraries which can be imported are on the Algorithm IDE Whitelist and the Research Whitelist. Definitely this has been discussed as a feature.
