It would be nice if the library had simple books such as Chemistry for Dummies or others like that instead of the old hard to understand ones. I will pass this suggestion along to the person who selects our Chemistry materials. It is a hard subject, no doubt. Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: Simple Chemistry” ›
There should be more desks rather than "reading" chairs. Like in the old microtext room there should only be maybe one area of the blue chairs for "reading." Replace the other area with one or two more desks. Thank you for this recommendation. You are right, unlike most other college students in America, Wake students...

In my opinion, the situation with students leaving their stuff unattended in the library for hours on end is getting out of hand. As I am writing this, about 50% of the seats in the 4th floor study room (above the 24 hour rooms) have people sitting in them. However, there are maybe 1 or...

I think I speak for a lot of people who regularly study in the 24 hr room when I say it would be great if you did away with the alarm on the door of the grad lounge. Requiring a graduate i.d. to open the door is more than effective at preventing undergrads from entering... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: Alarm on the Graduate Lounge Door” ›
I’m not sure if the maintenance people are aware they disturb students in the 7th floor stairwells. Almost every day there are several members of the maintenance crew lounging and chatting in the 7th floor stairwells disturbing the students. I’m sure they are on their break and just want to sit down, but they do... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: 7th Floor Quiet Study” ›
I would love to see all the seasons of Cold Case in the TV show collection. Thank you for the suggestion. We don’t really have a TV show collection. We buy television series as requested by faculty and last year were able to buy some at the end of the year with money donated by... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: TV Show Collection” ›
The electrical outlets on the 6th floor of the Wilson Wing, along the green chairs, don’t work. Please fix them so I don’t have to move to work on my computer. Thanks for letting us know. We will call it right in to Facilities. Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: Outlets” ›
I’d like to know where the Reference department is physically located but I can’t find any department information listed and searching the site gives many links but no success. Aren’t librarians supposed to be able to organize information? The Reference Department is on the 4th floor of the Wilson Wing, behind the giant "Ask" sign...

I will pass them along to our... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: More Movie Suggestions” ›
I am working in the basement next to what looks like a closet number 152A. I just literally watched a cockroach run from under that door INTO my backpack. I’m not one to really get bothered by stuff like that but I feel like someone else might. And it was pretty disgusting. Thanks for letting...
