+## Installation Guide For: PyPI Users
 
 The [synapseclient](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/synapseclient/) package is available from PyPI. It can be installed or upgraded with pip. Due to the nature of Python, we highly recommend you set up your python environment with [conda](https://www.anaconda.com/products/distribution) or [pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv) and create virtual environments to control your Python dependencies for your work.

+> **NOTE** <br>
+> The `synapseclient` package may require loading shared libraries located in your system's `/usr/local/lib` directory. Some users working
+with `conda` have experienced issues with shared libraries not being found due to the system searching in the wrong locations. Although
+not recommended, one solution for this is manually configuring the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable to point
+to the `/usr/local/lib` directory. [See here](https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/12800) for more context on this solution, and for alternatives.

 The dependencies on pandas, pysftp, and boto3 are optional. The Synapse `synapseclient.table` feature integrates with Pandas. Support for sftp is required for users of SFTP file storage. Both require native libraries to be compiled or installed separately from prebuilt binaries.
