Carrier Route Presort Deerfield Postal Patron From the Director There is no end to the ways Mayor Harriet Rosenthal will go to support the Deerfield community, including the promotion of library services and resources. We were so lucky to be able to tap her energy and enthusiasm for the cover photo during a busy and demanding time. Mayor Rosenthal has served Deerfield as an elected official for 36 years, starting with six terms as a Village trustee. She was first elected mayor in 2009, serving three terms. Her continued dedication to service has contributed to the growth and quality of life in Deerfield. Also, the Mayor is a living encyclopedia of Deerfield history, process and procedures, and residents past and present. Her institutional knowledge, as well as her kindness, creativity, and good humor will be sorely missed. ___________________________________ As Mayor Rosenthal says, “What a Deal!” Need we point out how much money you save by checking out the latest books, movies, and music from the library? Physical or digital, it’s here for you. As seen on the cover, here are a few popular library resources you might not know about: Consumer Reports: Access articles from the web version of the popular magazine. Compare ratings for cars, computers, mattresses, and more before your next purchase. Mobile Hotspot: Not everybody has easy access to robust internet connectivity. This strong Wi-Fi connector will provide support for school, business, and entertainment. Typewriter: Time travel back, way back, through the magic of the unplugged keyboard experience. Fun for all ages. Ukelele: Bring live music into your home with this wonderful instrument and instruction book. It’s easy, light-weight, and sounds like a smile. You can find all of these items in the DPL catalog. Consumer Reports can be found at deerfieldlibrary.org/online-resources. For the other items listed above, type “Library of Things” in the catalog search box followed by the item name or just start scrolling. Also, feel free to call or email staff for assistance accessing all these special resources. This is just a nibble of the cornucopia of FREE offerings available to you at the Library. All you need is your Deerfield Public Library card. The smartest card in your wallet (or on your cell phone).

Schedule subject to change. For current hours, see deerfieldlibrary.org/contact. For the past two years, Library staff has researched the pros and cons of overdue fines, including potential usage barriers, efficiencies, and the Library’s bottom line. A first step in this direction was the launch of automatic renewals, which decreased our overdue fine collection. Still, of our 16,301 active cardholders (DPL cardholders and reciprocal borrowers), 1,408 cards are blocked because they have more than $10 in fines and fees. Of these cards, 497 are adult cards and 668 are youth cards. After careful consideration, the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees voted to eliminate charging overdue fines. This action will further support the Library’s commitment to open access. How will this work? Following is a brief overview, and full details will be shared on our website, social media, and e-newsletter closer to the launch date. Note: Due to COVID-19, the Library has not actively collected fines since early March 2020. In preparation for the switch over on December 1, we are in the process of retroactively eliminating fines, though replacement bills will remain on accounts. Timetable for notices in the Fine Free era will be as follows: 2 days before due: Courtesy notice will be received (email and text only). 2 days overdue: Notice sent. 7 days overdue: Notice sent. 14 days overdue: Notice sent. 21 days overdue: Notice sent and card is blocked. Until items are returned, patron will be unable to place holds, check out any materials, including the digital collection, or use the MakerSpace. 28 days overdue: Billing Notice sent for full replacement cost of item(s). If you currently have any overdue items at home, we would love to have you return them before December 1. With the continued quarantine of materials, the sooner you return your items, the sooner another patron will have access. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

We have experienced so many changes in the past few months and it’s hard to predict the future. I am so proud of how the library staff have pivoted to continue to provide so many services for the community. We have continued to offer a variety of programming including story times, art programs, book discussion groups for both adults and children, cooking classes, and special STEAM programs. Our community loves to read! During our building closure, we saw our average monthly e-book checkouts grow from 4,000 to nearly 7,000 checkouts in the past few months! Our digital video services, Hoopla and Kanopy, have also seen a noticeable increase in monthly checkouts. All these electronic services provide materials for adults and children. Our YouTube channel views have also increased from approximately 2,000 for the month to over 5,000 views. And, our podcast featured some great topics: The 1918 Influenza Pandemic and the Chicago Bulls connection to Deerfield. Our contactless curbside pickup has been wildly successful and we look forward to continuing that on some level as we move forward into the new world of living with COVID-19. This was a service that staff had previously discussed implementing and now was the right time to introduce it. COVID-19 is our new reality. We are planning ahead to provide for programs that can be either virtual or in person. We continue to add digital content to our collection. The DPL staff continues to serve our community with imagination, attention to detail, and a warm smile under their face masks. We look forward to the time when we can serve you both outside and inside the building.

Subscribe to our e-newsletter at deerfieldlibrary.org/newsletters �From the Director It’s safe to say that 2020 hasn’t been the year that many of us expected when the calendar flipped over on January 1. DPL is no exception. As a source for information as well as a community gathering place, the Library has been actively doing our part to flatten the curve of the spread of COVID-19. We closed our building to the public on March 13, 2020 and will remain closed until we feel confident that we can safely reopen the building. This was an incredibly busy day with 7,922 physical items checked out. We were so happy to see how much the community values the services we provide and how people wanted to stock up while staying at home. However, while the physical building has been closed, the Library staff have been diligently working to continue to meet the needs of the community by providing new virtual services. Staff worked quickly to establish lists of resources where people could find out information about COVID-19, recommended reading lists using our e-resources collection, digital storytimes and craft programs, an online chat feature, and book discussion groups. The Library staff are hard at work planning new and exciting programs but at this point, we aren’t sure if these programs will be in person or virtual. We will provide the most current programming information in our e-newsletter, on the DPL website, and on social media. If you are not yet subscribed to our e-newsletter, I strongly encourage you to do so at deerfieldlibrary.org/newsletters. We miss seeing everyone in person in the Library! At the time of this writing, the Library remains closed to the public and we are planning a safe, phased reopening to the community. Until that time, please continue to stay safe at home, and use our digital library resources. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Read Green, Live Green: A Great Way to Celebrate our Earth As we get ready to send this issue of Browsing to the printer, our Summer Reading Program plans are still “under construction.” To support the health of our community, instead of our traditional kick-off day, sign-up will all be done online. When plans are complete, full details will be posted on our website. We will send out an e-blast to let you know when we’re ready, so be sure to subscribe to the e-newsletter, deerfieldlibrary.org/newsletters.

One of our strongest partners is the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library. In the past 12 years, they’ve raised over $125,000 to supplement library programs and services. Most recently, they donated $25,000 for the laser engraver in the Library’s new MakerSpace. Following are just a few more examples of our many treasured partnerships. The Library has had a long-standing partnership with DPS 109. Our School Outreach Coordinator has cultivated relationships with school librarians, teachers, administrators, and students. With Jewett Park in our backyard, we have worked with the Park District staff on a variety of projects. In fact, at Jewett, there’s a bookshelf by the reception desk stocked with books selected by our Youth Services staff. We have worked with graphic design students at Deerfield High School to design our annual Summer Reading Program logo. This is the sixth year of our partnership. The logos fit our annual theme, and are used both digitally and in print. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with so many talented students. Every spring, we have a food drive to help the West Deerfield Township Food Pantry stock their shelves. Annually, from September through the end of the year, we collect winter coats for Lake County veterans and Rotary, and also take donations for the Toys for Tots program. Public libraries serve their communities in so many different ways. Nurturing our partnerships is one of them. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Create. Innovate. Collaborate.

Your participation in the 2020 Census is extremely important. The results will impact your life for the next 10 years. Census results determine dozens of major representation and allocation issues. This includes • Number of seats in the U.S. House (Illinois is in danger of losing 1-2 seats) • Federal funds (out of a national total of $675 billion) for: - Schools and Libraries - School meal programs - Roads and Highways - Public Transportation - Medicaid - SNAP and WIC - Housing assistance - Community services grants There will be one form per household, and will only take about 10-15 minutes to complete.

Details on page 2 �From the Director The end of 2019 marks the conclusion of our current Strategic Plan. This plan came out of months of work in 2016. I’m so proud of all the work the Library staff has done to meet the goals outlined in the plan. By the time this edition of Browsing is delivered, the new MakerSpace will almost be completed and ready to open to the public. The MakerSpace project came from our Strategic Plan. We found out that our community was interested in more technology and hands-on programs here at the Library. By adding the MakerSpace, we are able to offer these new experiences. Watch our website, deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace for updated information about the Grand Opening for this new space. In the upcoming year, the Library will continue to explore and expand our efforts to provide the community with open access to ideas and information in a welcoming environment. We continually evaluate our programs and services. It’s hard to believe that we are just a few months away from entering a new decade, and one that comes with an extremely important initiative: Census 2020. The Library will be working to promote and provide information about the Census. Did you know that this is the first time in history that you will be able to fill out your Census form online? An important role for a public library in the Census initiative is to provide a safe place for people to fill out the online Census form. Watch our website for more information about the 2020 Census.

Story on page 2 �From the Director In past columns, I’ve alluded to the planned renovation of our Media area. As this newsletter goes to press, we are about ready to begin construction of our new MakerSpace, a collaborative workspace. First, the shelves will be rotated, and the Media desk will be moved. Later in August, we anticipate full construction to begin, which should last approximately 4-6 weeks. Watch our social media channels and website (deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace) for information about the opening of the new space. The Library is committed to meeting the needs of our community. We undertook this project as part of the Library’s current Strategic Plan. From our research and planning in 2016, we knew there was an interest in increased STEAM-related offerings. The STEAM acronym stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Since 2017, we have continued to add new STEAM programs. These have included our popular 3D printing programs, as well as Tech Drop-ins, that provide a casual opportunity to see new technologies in action.  We have also added non-traditional items, like our Discovery Kits, to the library’s collection. The Discovery Kits focus on STEAM and other creative concepts with hands-on making. A kit is a curated collection of items available around a theme. The new MakerSpace is going to house STEAM-related equipment and provide additional table seating for people to use all hours the Library is open. When the construction is completed, we will have a new, larger service desk across from the book return, which will serve Media and additional patron needs. There is more to share! Turn to page 11 for a rendering of the new space, as well as a list of some of the equipment that we will have available.  Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Local History at Your Fingertips Do you like your Deerfield High School yearbook picture?

We have accomplished a number of the things outlined in the plan, such as increasing our program offerings, and adding more copies of popular materials. The final component to this plan is to reexamine our space to create more seating, as well as introducing more technology for the community with a new collaborative workspace. At the March 2019 Board meeting, the Board hired a local construction management firm, W.B. Olson, to manage this project. Over the summer months, we will finalize the documents and timeline the construction process. In the lead up to the start of the construction, you’ll notice that some things in the media section may be shifted. We anticipate the start of construction will be later in the summer, and we expect it to last approximately six weeks. Automatic renewals are here! Yes, it’s true. If your checked out items are eligible for renewal, it will happen automatically, up to two times! This new service offered by DPL provides the convenience of enjoying materials for a longer period of time with less worry about returning them on time or remembering to request a renewal. Your to-do list just got a little shorter! The collaborative workspace is a multifunctional space designed to help the Deerfield community learn, create, collaborate, and have fun with technology. We will provide everyone with equal access to materials and resources that encourage learning in a welcoming environment. We will be moving our very popular 3D printer into the new space, and additional items under review for purchase are a laser engraver, 3D scanner, and STEAM kits. The workspace will include AV equipment such as a sound booth, microphones, and a camera. We plan to have creative crafting equipment, such as a sewing and embroidery machine available for use. Finally, we’ll move our Digital Media Lab from the basement so that all our patron-use equipment is located in one space. Watch our website and social media channels for more information on this exciting new addition to DPL. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director How does it work? • Two days before the due date, eligible items will automatically renew for the full renewal period. • What’s not eligible? Any item on hold for another patron, Lucky Duck books, new videos, and items acquired through interlibrary loan. • Digital items (e-books, e-audiobooks, streaming movies and music) are not affected. How will I be notified? • Patrons who have an e-mail address in their account will get a courtesy notice letting them know which items were not automatically renewed, and which items now have a new due date. • Patrons who receive text message notices will receive a courtesy notice listing the items that were not renewed. How can I sign up for a courtesy notice? • To sign up for email notification: ask in person at the library, by phone, or update your patron account on the Library website: deerfieldlibrary.org, Click on “My Account” on top right side. Reminder: You can check on your due dates anytime using the “My Account” link on our website. 2 �R Please register in advance at the Library, by phone at 847-945-3311 or at www.deerfieldlibrary.org.

We surveyed Library patrons to gather their feedback about what they want in their Library. The staff and board are proud of the work that has been accomplished. We have increased unique types of items in the collection, added a self-checkout station for ease, adjusted check out periods and added new spaces for our youngest patrons in the Youth Services Department In response to the enhanced emphasis in education for science and math, the Library has responded with an increase in technology programs. Some of our most popular programs have been rooted in the maker technology. The maker movement is a technology-based extension of DIY culture that intersects with computer culture. This focus has coincided with our interest in repurposing some of our space. In 2018, the staff and board began working with Product Architecture & Design, a firm that specializes in creating flexible library spaces. We evaluated various options for reconfiguring our physical collection, and have decided to repurpose the space that houses our DVD and CD collection. We anticipate that we will see this transformation to begin in the summer of 2019. We will be moving the Media Desk from a somewhat hidden position to a more accessible location. This new collaborative workspace will provide our community innovative access to technology. We are excited to invigorate the space, and will provide further details as plans develop. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Deerfield 1959: New Insights At the end of 2018, the Libraiy launched a new website, The Fight to Integrate Deerfield: 60 Year Reflection (deerfieldlibrarj.org/FID). The website documents an important and complex time in the history of Deerfield and the United States. With the website, the Library is presenting an array of special programs and exhibits to illuminate our community’s stoiy. This is not a new story. There were community programs on the 1959 integration crisis for the 40- and 50-year anniversaries, and it has been part of the Deerfield schools’ curriculum for years. This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for our archives, new revelations, and several recent and forthcoming books and projects that feature Deerfield’s integration case. Website The new website includes online exhibits, interviews, discussion guides, booklists, a timeline of events, and our historical archives. This will serve as the online home for our resources for years to come so that, beyond our program series, future generations will have access to the materials. Historical Archives The preservation of our physical archives has been an important component of our 60 year reflection project. Standout items in the newly digitized history collection include newspaper articles quoting Eleanor Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr., anti-integration editorials, and items related to the formation of the pro­ integration Deerfield Citizens for Human Rights. Exhibits 2 Temporary exhibits will feature original primary source materials including propaganda, protest handouts, newspaper articles, and rare photographs on loan from the Art Shay Archives. Exhibits will be on display in several locations throughout the Library for the duration of the program series. for the Library’s permanent collection. The photos represent a documentary and artistic record of the fight over integrated housing in Deerfield. Art Shay Photographs Share Your Story A generous donation from the Friends of the Deerfield Public Libraiy has made possible the purchase of two photographs by longtime Deerfield resident and world-renowned photographer, Art Shay, We are interested in personal stories, memories, contemporary reflections, and physical documents related to the fight to integrate Deerfield.

YES! (details on page 2) �This newsletter’s focus is on the non-traditional items that DPL has to offer. It’s an interesting idea. What is a “non-traditional” item? According to my dad, a DVD is something that he considers non-traditional. My dad is a voracious reader and library user, and he uses his public library for books. As I reflect on my almost 20 year career as a librarian, I remember when computers were considered nontraditional. Computers! Something so ubiquitous today was quite the big deal when I began my career. The first public library I worked at after library school had a shelving range dedicated to regional Illinois phone books. Speaking from personal experience, those were a hard thing to shelve! We also had CD-ROMs instead of online databases and a vertical file. A vertical file was a filing cabinet that had folders of “current” information, as well as things like maps. In my tenure at that library, we got rid of the phone books and the vertical file to add more, you guessed it, public access computers. Public libraries have been adept at evolving and changing to meet the needs of their individual communities. Deerfield is no exception. In the past year, our collection of non-traditional items has grown considerably. As a public library, we are about meeting our patrons’ information needs in a variety of formats. We have learned that this can be in the form of a Roku or a telescope or even a board game. Check one out today! Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Take home a telescope (and more)! Once upon a time... long, long ago (ok, maybe just 20 years ago), most public libraries had only print items for check-out, plus small collections of audio and video materials. Fast-forward to 2018, and the DPL collection has creatively expanded to provide an enhanced experience for our community. Siona and Eva Rajshekhar (1-r, cover) are two of the Library’s most enthusiastic users of “non-traditional” library materials. These Wilmot students have found that their experience with DPL’s Discoveiy Kits stimulated an interest in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities. They have continued working in these subject areas both at camp and school. Their interest in architecture and engineering resulted in the cool wood structure on the cover, built with DPL’s KE\A kit. Siona and Eva report that the structure represents the future headquarters for their business, still in the planning stages, for “spy missions or dog walking, or both!” Come on in and learn more about all this fun stuff. You’ll find our non-traditional materials in the Youth or Media departments.

Q 3 �Adult Programs I I I DEERFIELD fj| Please register in advance at the Library, by phone at 847-945-3311 or at deerfieldlibraryorg. Registration opens Wednesday, November 14. In 1959, residents of Deerfield learned a housing developer planned to sell homes in the village to black buyers as well as white buyers. Many residents opposed integration and sought to halt the development. A smaller group, the Deerfield Citizens for Human Rights, formed in support of the development. In the weeks that followed, Deerfield residents passed a park referendum designed to condemn the developer’s land. The crisis in Deerfield became a national story, attracting the attention of Martin Luther King Jr., James Baldwin, and Eleanor Roosevelt. After years of demonstrations and legal battles, the land became parks that stand today. Continuing a community tradition, the Library is inviting residents, historians, and experts to offer new insights into this history. We have updated and digitized our archives, made new acquisitions and discoveries. The Library is also partnering with Deerfield schools to enhance existing curriculum. We invite you tojoin us for a series of discussions, lectures, exhibits and other opportunities to reflect on the 60 years since the fight to integrate Deerfield began. Programs and exhibits run from January 21-May 2,2019. Full details at deerfieldlibrary.org/FID. Have a story to share? Email deerfieldhistory@deerfieldlibrary.org to get started.
