I am a renter that recently talked my landlord into allowing me to use
the fireplace in my half of the duplex. I am noticing a large draft
created by the fireplace and have read about my gas heat going up the
chimeney. I want to install an outside air source for the fireplace
but am having trouble finding instructions for doing so. If anyone
can refer me to information regarding it I would greatly appreciate
it.

i would see whether yours is a decorative one or actually designed to
heat the room or home. what is its present fuel and design, maybe
there is a working stack temperature required for the updraft.
