Mary, I would recommend the type of approach advocated here:
http://pragdave.pragprog.com/pragdave/2006/01/sharing_externa.html Basically you would create one AR model that establishes a connection to your legacy DB and one that connects to the other one, both of which are abstract and then you just subclass models from the appropriate DB - specific base class. Other options may be found here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUseMultipleDatabases Good luck!
