I found the following a very easy way to include libs not on the default path.
# Set the lib path for our own libs use FindBin; use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib"; This way if you want to have for instance: Net::Sendmail as a module all you need to do is create a directory: Net in the lib directory and put the module Sendmail.pm in that Net directory ending you up with something like this. /yourScript.pl /lib/Net/Sendmail.pm Then in your script you do as you always do to include a module. use Net::Sendmail; This also helps for portability, your script will pick the Sendmail.pmmodule that it finds on the path first, so if you are not sure when moving your application from one machine to the next if the required module is already installed this is a handy trick to use.
