Isn't it the _Value_ of $rsFollow->{'Book Title'} you want to print? Like $rsFollow->{'Book Title'}->{Value}.

$rsFollow->{'Book Title'} has _many_ other attributes, like Name, Type and Status. I think VB assumes that it is the Value you want to print, while Perl don't.

You can print the all the attributes of it with:

foreach (keys %{$rsFollow->{'Book Title'}}) {
  print $_."\n";
}
