might do the trick. Note that 'use lib' takes a path, not a namespace as an argument ...

    And ditto with tools/ToolLog.

    The OP could use a rel2abs call in case he changes his directory later: 

    use File::Spec::Functions qw(rel2abs);
use lib rel2abs(tools/DBQuery), rel2abs(tools/ToolLog);

    Still, I'm wonderin, with such an elaborate directory structure, why the module name/namespace hasn't been extended to include the extra top level? 

    use File::Spec::Functions qw(rel2abs);
use lib rel2abs('tools');
use DBQuery::Data::BackendMap;
use ToolLog::Logging;
