    I love the ZSR because it is my home away from home. To me, the ZSR as a little piece of heaven among the the craziness of the college campus.

  • Parker Beverly

    Whether you need help writing a paper, space for a group project, help with researching a topic for a class, assistance finding a specific book, or even just a place to meet people for coffee, ZSR is the place to be.

  • Jimmy Camp

    New students should know that ZSR has more to it than meets the eye. ZSR has a variety of online databases that all students should take advantage of, as well as many other services such as the Writing Center and the Bridge.

  • Dalton Collins

    Dalton Collins

    New students should see ZSR equally as important to their Wake experience as their dorm room. It is where you will research for essays, study for finals, and stop for coffee. Perhaps you will even find a place among its staff like I did.

  • Nuala Conway-Pearson

    Nuala Conway-Pearson

  • Hannah DeMaioNewton

    Hannah DeMaioNewton

    While ZSR is a great place to study and get work done, the atmosphere that Wake Forest students, faculty, and staff have cultivated here over time represents the unity and determination to benefit others that define the Wake Forest community. As you spend more time in ZSR, pay close attention to the little details, like the art vending machine, murals, and mini library book exchange box tucked into a corner of ZSR’s side entrance, that show us just how integral our library is to our community.

  • Caroline Fahringer

    Megan Gast

    New students should know that ZSR is here to help them with whatever they need. I know it is intimidating, especially if you are a freshman, to ask for help but that is their job! Actually read and pay attention to the lists of services ZSR has to offer because those services WILL save you time and stress throughout your college career!

  • Layla Ghiai

    Layla Ghiai

    My favorite thing about the ZSR is that it’s a whole lot bigger on the inside than on the outside so it’s a pleasant surprise when you walk through the ZSR’s doors. I think it’s important for new students to know that ZSR is not just a physical resource but also an online resource for them to use. The ZSR website provides citation guides, databases, and many other tools students will find useful in their research.

  • Hannah Goodwin

    My favorite thing about ZSR is that students can reserve study rooms and checkout cables to connect a laptop to a presentation screen, which is perfect for group work! All new students should know about these resources!

  • Shosi Hansen

    When I was nervously moving in early freshman year, my parents and I visited ZSR. I fell in love upon seeing the view of Wait Chapel from the sixth floor windows and knew that the library would become my safe haven.

    The ZSR Library provides prime study spaces that promote focus and learning. I love sitting on the 6th floor overlooking the atrium down below.

    Dylan King

    I’ve found lots of great resources for projects (from historic analyzes for an English class to technical math textbooks for a specialized project) just by spending 5 minutes and checking on the catalog.

  • Sophie Lee

    Every student should know that ZSR is one of the sunniest spots on campus and has great studying, reading, and relaxing nooks.

  • Raniery Mendes

    Raniery Mendes

    I think all students, especially first-year students, should take some time to explore ZSR because it goes beyond being a library. It offers a comfortable, welcoming environment as well as plenty of resources – my favorite ones are the Writing Center and the study rooms. I am sure you will find your favorite/perfect study spot. (I recommend room 601 on the 6th floor – It offers a fantastic view of the campus). Also, ZSR has a great Staff team, so make sure to get in touch with them if you need any help.

  • Suprene Mohamedzein

    Suprene Mohamedzein

    One thing new students should know about ZSR is that there are research librarians available that can help you find, evaluate, and obtain materials for the different kinds of academic projects you may encounter here at Wake. You can use the subject or course-specific research guides developed by these librarians to figure out where to start or you can schedule an appointment with a specific research librarian to meet in person.

  • David Mulder

    David Mulder

    I love ZSR because I’m always discovering new things there: hidden study spots, books, whole shelves of knowledge I didn’t know existed. Even after many years of wandering the stacks, I still find plenty of surprises.

  • Lindsay Moran

    Lindsay Moran

    My favorite thing about ZSR has to be the people! Everyone is super nice and very willing to help. I have met some of my favorite people on campus through the library. Something new students should know about ZSR is just how many resources there are available! There are TONS of great academic resources, such as research librarians, Zotero workshops, citation help, but there are also non-academic things, like a movie room and fun events (Outbreak, Wake the Library).

  • Clare Myeroff

    New students should make sure to explore all the floors of the library when they have a chance– last year I discovered a new favorite study spot right before we left for break!!

  • Ally Ponte

    Ally Ponte

    I think all new students should know that the ZSR is not just a place to do homework. We have so many other resources in the library including the bridge, the writing center, the research librarians, and the one button studio. Everyone should go explore the ZSR at some point!

  • Martin Seng

    Martin Seng

    I love the ZSR because it provides a great environment to study and chat with friends. A class that I have really liked at Wake is African American Rhetoric taught by Dr. French. I like that class because it is fun and interesting and the class touches on a lot of controversial subjects.

  • Madi Shaver

    Madi Shaver

    I think one of the most unique resources and spaces to have on a college campus is the library. ZSR creates a wonderful atmosphere to get work done individually and with friends.

  • Julie Sun

    Julie Sun

    For new students, it is good to know that there is a room called ZSR Library Auditorium (room 404), in which scholars from all over the world would come and give lectures to students. These lectures cover different fields and are easy to be understood. So if newcomers find it hard to decide their major, then listen to these lectures might be a good starting point for them to discover their real interests.

  • Jonathan Trattner

    Jonathan Trattner

    I think new students should know about the recliners in the Ziesta room that are great for napping during long nights!
