Learn to make friends who are not librarians outside or work - know there is more to the campus where you work than just the library - have ever attended a university/college sporting event? Have you been to an art show at the Univ Art Museum? Have you been to a concert at the school of music?
Try to think of how many friends you have outside the library or friends who aren't librarians. If the answer is less than 2 you need to get a life - get involved in something outside of work.

College & Research Libraries News should be required reading for every academic librarian as they assimilate into the library workplace. How else will one learn how to speak, make friends, and "be a person"?
Ask the readers: What other "assimilation" articles would you like to see printed in C&RL News?
