If the environment variable INFOPATH is set, that is used.  Just put
the desired directory in there.

If that environment variable isn't set, the ELisp variable
Info-default-directory-list is used instead.  You can add a directory
to it with the following:

  (setq Info-default-directory-list
        (append '("/your/path/goes/here")
                Info-default-directory-list))

or

  (setq Info-default-directory-list
        (append Info-default-directory-list
                '("/your/path/goes/here")))

Try out both ones, I don't know offhand which one makes Info search
your directory first.

hth,
kai
