I want to change place of ylabel near the axes.
See the ylabel shift option, which can be used to move the label by an amount, for example
\begin{axis}[ylabel shift = 1 pt]
...
\end{axis}
(You will need to have \pgfplotsset{compat = 1.3} or a higher version number for this to work.)

@Claudio I've added that comment. I always use the latest settings, so this is not something I have to worry about normally. – Joseph Wright♦ May 4 '12 at 7:31

2Setting
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.3}(or higher) will automatically move the label "as close as possible" (i.e. near the boundary of the largest tick label). Perhaps you do not even need a custom shift (although it might be necessary if tick labels have signs which increase the bounding box). – Christian Feuersänger May 4 '12 at 19:43
Try to add the ylabel near ticks option in the axis environment like this
\begin{axis}[..., ylabel near ticks, ...]
...
\end{axis}
There is no need to give a value for this option.

2The previous answer did not solve the problem, but the
ylabel near ticksdid. – perror May 7 '13 at 18:08
The following code shall works for you
%----------------------------------------------
\pgfplotsset{every axis legend/.style={
cells={anchor=center},% Centered entries
inner xsep=3pt,
inner ysep=2pt,
nodes={inner sep=2pt,text depth=0.15em},
anchor=south east,
shape=rectangle, %box shape
fill=white, %box inside
draw=white, %box color
at={(rel axis cs:0.90,1.0)} %box position right top
}}
%-------------------------------------------
\begin{axis}
[
ylabel style={yshift=0.4cm}, %shifting the y line text
]
