APM: Installing modules locally on a shared server

[Goldilox]

I need to install some modules locally on a shared server. I do not have access
to root and it is a pay service with no support, especially with this issue. I
have figured out I need to add my local dir to @INC

PERL5LIB=/path/to/my/perl-lib; export PERL5LIB;

but now I try to run: perl -MCPAN -e shell

and it basically tells me I am not root

so I need to get the modules installed to: /path/to/my/perl-lib

Can anyone point me to a tutorial?

Thanks
