This is from the perlrun man page:

       PERL5LIB    A colon-separated list of directories in which
                   to look for Perl library files before looking
                   in the standard library and the current
                   directory.  If PERL5LIB is not defined,
                   PERLLIB is used.  When running taint checks
                   (because the script was running setuid or
                   setgid, or the -T switch was used), neither
                   variable is used.  The script should instead
                   say

                       use lib "/my/directory";
