    The author uses two basic formulas for the digamma function \(\psi\) (z) to derive series that involve the numbers \(\zeta (2n+1)\). An example of such a series is \(\sum^{\infty}_{n=1}(-1)^{n+1}\zeta (4n-1)/4^ n=1/4.\) The series are also expressed in trigonometric form for special choices of the variable and their use in representing the solutions of the wave equation is indicated.
