Daisha Bunn, Communications and Events Coordinator
Tell us about what you do at ZSR Library?
I manage many of our social media channels, create both digital and traditional marketing materials, coordinate and assist in events. In addition, I’m working closely with department chairs to create communication and marketing strategies. I also have the privilege of working directly with our Outreach team, which has provided me the opportunity to work closely with students.
What is your favorite book/podcast/movie?
I love reading, I’ve read 40 books this year already so this is a hard question! My favorite series thus far is “The Edens” by Denver Perry. While I like books that are an escape from reality, I’m a True Crime junky and LOVE Morbid: A True Crime Podcast. Favorite movie of all time is a tie between Practical Magic and Bridesmaids.
What is your favorite project you have worked on in your career?
My current favorite project is the More Than A Library Podcast. Not only have I gained new skills, but I discovered a passion for podcasting – the editing, the recording, the talking (who would’ve guessed), truly the entire process.
How did you start working in libraries?
Honestly, I never saw it coming (working in a library). I have always been excited for new places, new experiences and growth opportunities. You could say that is what led me to working at ZSR. While I was unfamiliar with the location specifically, I knew I had both the skills and desire to enhance the student experience. Ironically, ZSR embodies everything I am passionate about: inspiring learning, advancing knowledge, and building community.
What is something we can’t know by looking at you?
I have a 40 before 40 bucket list. Top 3 items on the list: Own a farm and 3 cows, dance in the rain in Paris, and take a solo trip to Greece.

Daisha, I love that 40 before 40 list! (and I’m so excited about the podcast!) Thanks for sharing and for being such an awesome outreach partner!
You are a delightful addition to the ZSR! I’m grateful we have you Daisha.
You are a wonderful asset to ZSR Library and to our team! We are so glad you are here! I want some cows too!!
I’m so glad you’re here, Daisha!
This is great, Daisha! Please invite me to the farm!!
Adding “the Edens” to my list! This whole thing is awesome and so are you, Daisha!
Love that you are lovin’ your work here, matching your interests and skills with our needs! I feel connection with your bucket list items since my Granddaddy owned a dairy farm, I spent my junior year abroad in France, and Greece is on my travel wishlist. I’m curious about why specifically 3 cows!
I am proud to know you, Daisha, and extra proud to claim you as my Salem sibling. Your verve and energy and style and spirit make me want to jump up and do things. Wish you still worked at Salem, but glad you are in our community.
I’m impressed with all of these things but perhaps mostly with your having read 40 books already this year given how incredibly busy you are! You are inspirational!
Hi Daisha
You are an inspiration to me, and I know that anything you put your effort and many talents to will be a success.
You are a phenomenal Woman and iam sure you will continue to inspire us.
❤️
We’re so glad you are here, Daisha! Thanks for making ZSR not only look good, but also for making it a fun place to be.
We are the proud grandparents of this amazing young lady. Our most favorite memory of her childhood was watching her captivate her audience while dancing on stage. Continue following your dreams and you will have that farm with 3 cows. We love you so much and you can always count on us.
Thanks for being here at ZSR–it was fun to learn more about you!
We love having you at ZSR! Can’t wait to learn your cows’ names… 🙂
