According to its manpage,
perldoc will search in any directories in the environment variable
PERL5LIB. So if you wanted some POD documentation in a
Pod directory or a
doc directory and some mixed into libraries in
lib and other mixed into executables in
bin, you could just write a small script that did:
PERL5LIB=./Pod:./lib:./bin perldoc "$@"
to tell
perldoc to search in those three places.
