Giving to the Library
Invest in Academic Excellence
The Z. Smith Reynolds Library is the heart and center for academic excellence on campus. During the academic year, the library is filled with members of the campus community either studying, seeking information or materials, going to a class or lecture, coming to get their computer repaired at The Bridge, or simply seeking solace in a cup of coffee. By investing in ZSR, your gift – no matter the size – will have considerable impact on the entire campus community.
We encourage you to make a gift to the one of the following funds supporting the Z. Smith Reynolds Library today.
Help us support and further the education of one of ZSR’s greatest assets, our student workers. Your support will reward exceptional student workers for their dedication and contribution to ZSR Library’s above-and-beyond spirit.
ZSR Library Student Employee Scholarship Fund
A gift to the ZSR Annual Fund supports the overall academic mission of the library. Gifts to the annual fund have allowed us to add smart lockers for after hours pick-ups to our 24/7 study room, refresh technology, and upgrade furniture in study areas.
Give to the Library Outreach Fund to help support creative and innovative programming for our students, faculty, and the greater Wake Forest University community developed by our librarians and our student leadership group, the ZSR Ambassadors.
By supporting the Special Collections & Archives Fund you help preserve and provide access to unique materials such as books, papers, letters, diaries, artifacts, photographs, and memorabilia for Wake Forest students, faculty, researchers, and visitors.
