Importing external module in IronPython

I'm currently working on an application written in C#, which I'm embedding IronPython in. I generally have no problems about it, but there's one thing that I don't know how to deal with.

I want to import an external module into the script. How can I do that? Simple import ext_lib doesn't work. Should I add a path to the lib to sys.path? Maybe it is possible to copy the lib's .py file into app directory and import from there?

EDIT: I finally chosen another solution - compiled my script with py2exe and I'm just running it from main C# app with Process (without using IronPython).

Anyway, thanks for help ;)

If you have installed IronPython from NuGet packages and you want modules from the CPython Standard Library then the best way to do it is by installing the IronPython.StdLib NuGet package which is from the same authors of IronPython.
