I am working on a Python project
and have to use a third party library which is not uploaded in pip

Thus, I am going to put it in my project, Like this

project---- L mypackage L somemodule.py L somemodule2.py L third-party-package L anymodule.py

But, I am not sure this is good directory structure for python3

If I have to use many third-party-packages which are not uploaded in pip
Then I have to create many third party package folders like below

project---- L mypackage L somemodule.py L somemodule2.py L third-party-package L anymodule.py L third-party-package2 L anymodule2.py L third-party-package3 L anymodule3.py

May be the better structure likes below

project---- L mypackage L somemodule.py L somemodule2.py L lib L third-party-package L anymodule.py L third-party-package2 L anymodule2.py L third-party-package3 L anymodule3.py

But in this case, It will create import errors inside third-party-pacakge Since the root package is now lib

So what is the good structure? For this kind of case???
