 ## Installation
 
 To use the Nominatim library, you need access to a local Nominatim database.
-Follow the [installation and import instructions](../admin/) to set up your
-database.
+Follow the [installation](../admin/Installation.md) and
+[import](../admin/Import.md) instructions to set up your database.
+
+The Nominatim frontend library is contained in the 'nominatim-api' package.
+To install the package from the source tree directly, run:
+
+    pip install packaging/nominatim-api
 
-It is not yet possible to install it in the usual way via pip or inside a
-virtualenv. To get access to the library you need to set an appropriate
-PYTHONPATH. With the default installation, the python library can be found
-under `/usr/local/share/nominatim/lib-python`. If you have installed
-Nominatim under a different prefix, adapt the `/usr/local/` part accordingly.
-You can also point the PYTHONPATH to the Nominatim source code.
+Usually, you would want to run this in a virtual environment.
