I worked this out with Jordan, following the instructions here:

https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guide_libraries

• First, he had to share his standalone script with me, so I had read access to it (probably setting the script as public read would work too).
• Then he told me his project key.
• I took his project key and inserted it in "Find a Library", in the "Manage Libraries" menu.
• For this to work, Jordan had to export "a version" of his library - so third parties can rely on stable code and upgrade at their own rhythm.
• As Jordan's script runs automatically on onOpen(), my code had to define a function onOpen() that called his script onOpen(). To do this, the library manager gave me an identifier for the imported library.

Sample code once the library is imported and the library manager gives you an identifier for the library:

   function onOpen() {
     GivenLibraryIdentifier.onOpen();
   }
