-### Installation with Pip
+RIA Toolkit OSS is available as a standard Python package on both RIA Hub and PyPI:
+- [RIA Hub PyPI Package Registry: `ria-toolkit-oss`](https://riahub.ai/qoherent/-/packages/pypi/ria-toolkit-oss)

-While RIA Toolkit OSS can also be installed from the RIA Hub PyPI Package Registry, RIA Hub does not yet support a proxy or cache for public packages. We intend to add this missing functionality to RIA Hub soon. In the meantime, you need to use the `--no-deps` option with pip to skip automatic dependency installation, and then manually install each dependency afterward.
