[the other module mentioned being DBD::CSV]

The DBD modules are database specific drivers for DBI. So if you use DBI
to connect to "dbi:CSV:f_dir=foo", it will call DBD::CSV behind the
scenes (similarily, if you connected to "dbi:Pg:dbname=foo", it would
call DBD::Pg, etc.). The DBD modules are not intended to be used
standalone, you always use them indirectly through DBI. See the perldoc
page for DBI which explains the architecture quite well.
