Abstract
This paper ruminates on my first year as an academic librarian on a health sciences campus. Discussed topics include lessons that were learned, reflection on what I wish would have happened differently, and nominal but helpful advice for recent graduates with little experience in libraries or those making a career transition into librarianship.
