Where is the best local place to store software repository?


I have 13 dvd set debian 8.5. I store it in /mnt.
I point /etc/apt/sources.list to it.
This works, but is there a more standard or official way to do it?

the first step if you have a problem is NOT to start a new thread, but to search for documentation.
e.g. like this: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=debian+wiki+local+repository
