CPAN

The Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (CPAN) is a repository of Perl modules and scripts submitted by Perl programs worldwide. It is by far the most valuable resource for Perl programmers, so if you haven’t browsed through CPAN, go there now, and expect to stay a while. There are many mirrored CPAN sites around the world, but the preferred entry point is http://www.cpan.org.
