I would put your additional modules into a 'modules' directory with an __init__.py. For example: py> os.listdir('.') ['modules'] py> os.listdir('modules') ['my_module1.py', 'my_module2.py', '__init__.py'] py> file('modules/__init__.py').read() '' py> file('modules/my_module1.py').read() 'name = "module1"\n' py> file('modules/my_module2.py').read() 'name = "module2"\n' Then, if you place your python script in the same directory as the 'modules' directory, you can simply import the additional modules from the 'modules' package: py> import modules.my_module1 as module1 py> module1.name 'module1' py> import modules.my_module2 as module2 py> module2.name 'module2' Note that the 'modules' package needs to be at the same directory level as your Python module. If you want your 'modules' directory in a different location, you may want to go the way of Thomas Güttler's suggestion and modify sys.path. But I probably wouldn't if you don't have to.
