He succeeds Suzanne Whetstone who served as administrative librarian for the past twenty years. Mrs. Whetstone has moved to South Bend, Indiana. Hicks, who is well known and respected in the Deerfield community, has a strong commitment to public service and plans to maintain the library’s fine tradition in the community. He hopes to improve the quality of service by adding more materials, providing access to those materials, and making best use of technological advancements available to libraries. He also wants to emphasize staff training and “the human touch’’ in delivery of service and materials. Always enjoying his contact with the public at the Reference Desk, Hicks has pioneered in offering patrons and teaching (other North Suburban Librarians) online information retrieval service. Deerfield was among the first libraries in the nation to offer searches to patrons at no charge.

He is active in the American Library Association, Illinois Library Association, and Midwest Federated Library Associa­ tion.

New Juvenile Books Devour A Book: Delicious Success Youth Services Department had an active and successful summer with 256 children completing at least one course in their menu selection” meaning at least five books were read by each. Parties for these readers and additional food theme workshops were of great interest. Children decorated candy houses at the Gingerbread House workshop, studied and ate spaghet­ ti at Spaghetti Days and participated in Native American Indian Day. Popular family nights were the shark program and the magic show. All activities were well at­ tended and readers definitely developed a taste for the library during “Devour a Book” summer of ’88.

Deerfield. IL 60015 Winter 1989 Vol. 4. No. 1 Welcome! New Head Of Reference I would like to take this opportunity, my first column as library director, to give a heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of people who took time to speak, call, or write to congratulate me on my promotion. After so many years of public service in what I thought was anonymity, your response has been overwhelming to me. It is so seldom that librarians get the praise and recogni­ tion you have extended. This promotion is now more than just a promotion, rather something very personal and rewarding to me. Thank you all, so very much, for your kindness. My goals for the next three years are re­ latively simple ones: Collection develop­ ment to more closely match your needs |nd desires, staff training to insure a conrinued high level of service, and a program of public relations to make sure all of you are aware of all of our materials, prog­ rams, and service. We have engaged a nationally known library planner to help us regain some of the charm our library has lost with the ad­ dition of all the new technology, mate­ rials, and books. We are as concerned as you are about our library’s future. ( / Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian Tax Time The Deerfield Library will be a site for Volunteer Income Tax As­ sistance this winter. There is no charge for the service co-sponsored by the IRS and the American As­ sociation of Retired Persons. No ap­ pointment is necessary for the ser­ vice available in the upstairs meet­ ing room, Tuesdays and Fridays from l-4p.m. February 3 - April 14. Please bring last year’s return. Income tax forms are available at the reference desk, but librarians are not qualified to offer lax assistance. Peggy McCabe at the Bibliofile Catalog Bibliofile Catalog Has Personal Touch Deerfield now has additional computer catalogs, the ‘‘Friendly Biblioftles which personify technology; they are be­ coming popular with users. The library’s old card catalogs went on­ line, on computer, two years ago. The old card catalog files were gradually phased out and removed from public service areas in December, 1988. Deerfield Library shares the online system, the Joint Compu­ ter Program for Libraries (JCPL) with Skokie, Morton Grove and Waukegan. JCPL, headquartered at the Skokie Lib­ rary, runs a GEAC Computer Corp. 8000 system. Presently the three Bibliofile CD-ROM catalog workstations are located in Refer­ ence and Young People’s Departments. Bibliofile contains the same author, title, and subject information found in the lib­ rary’s JCPL GEAC online catalog. Dub­ bed “The Intelligent Catalog” it is faster, smarter, easier to understand, prints off line at no charge and can talk and offer friendly instruction! Best of all, the Bibliofile, a “home grown product” is free standing (no telephone lines) and if the lib­ rary’s other computers linked to the JCPL Skokie office are down, the Bibliofile still works as a back-up! Bibliofile operates on a CD-ROM drive controlled by a hard disk which gives it a higher level of access programming. It does not have the Circulation capacity that the other computers have; it gives a book’s location, but not whether it is in the library or on loan. It is programmed and derived from our regular catalog database, how­ ever. The Bibliofile stand alone system does clarify searching on online catalogs. Try it, you'll like it! Judith Hortin has been appointed Head of Reference at Deerfield Public Library. This position was formerly held by Jack Hicks who is now library director. With five years experience as head of reference in public libraries in Manhattan, Kansas and Joliet, Illinois, Judy returns to her native Chicago. She has also worked in special libraries in Manhattan and Chicago and was in System Reference at Bur Oak Library System. Before becoming a libra­ rian, she was a teacher for the Chicago Public Schools. Now a Mt. Prospect resident, Judy said, “I have always cared about public lib­ raries and providing information. It’s hard to fill Jack’s shoes as I have always re­ spected his work. I am looking forward to meeting and working with the Deerfield community.” Judy holds a BA in English from the University of Wisconsin and a Masters in Library Science from Rosary College. She enjoys reading and, regarding other per­ sonal information, tells us she is a direct descendent of Benedict Arnold!

Deerfield, IL60015 To Honor The Profession’s Best and Deerfield’s Own In June, 1989, Deerfield's Robert R. McClarren, retires as Director, North Sub­ urban Library System, (NSLS) and re­ ceives the library profession's most pre­ stigious award: the Melvil Dewey Medal. The award, presented by the American Library Association is for “professional Achievement of a high order, particularly in the area of library management. . . and the tools and techniques of librarianship”. McClarren's wife Peg of 47 years, says, “His soul is being a librarian and of service. That is the essence of Bob”. This multi faceted, likeable state and national library leader often goes un­ noticed as he spends many a weekend “off duty” in casual garb wandering the stacks at his home library — Deerfield Public. He will be the star attraction at a reception Sunday April 16 at 2:30 p.m. at the library to which the whole Deerfield community is invited. McClarren has come a long way from his native farmlands of northwest Ohio as he prepares to retire after 22 years as Di­ rector of NSLS. He was first director of the system which now, largest library cooperative in Illinois, supplements local library service across the state and in­ cludes 319 member public and affiliated academic, school and special libraries. System services are used daily by Deer­ field Library patrons: These are interlib­ rary loan, periodical location, lending of audiovisual materials, special reference, service to the blind and physically hand­ icapped, and more. Vital Statistics Robert R. McClarren Robert R. McClarren Deerfield’s “Star” holds his under­ graduate degree from Muskingum College and served in the army in both World War II and the Korean War achieving the rank of Major. After receiving two master’s de­ grees, one in English and one in Library Science, Robert McClarren was Acting Director at Oak Park Public Library, but left to become library Director at Crawfordsville, Indiana for three years, Hun­ tington, WV for four and Western Coun­ ties Regional Library, WV for two. In 1962 he became Director of the Indiana State Library. He started with the North Suburban System in 1967. Promoting the cause of librarianship, he has been on the faculty at Graduate Schools of Library Science in Illinois, Texas and Wisconsin. He has held numer­ ous positions in the American Library As­ sociation including prestigious roles as Treasurer and Councilor-at-Large of this large national organization. He was Presi­ dent of the Illinois Library Association and also named Illinois Librarian of the Year. As this newsletter goes to press we have received word that McClarren has been awarded an honorary doctorate degree from Rosary College in Illinois. Join us in saluting your friend, col­ league and neighbor. As we celebrate the American Library Association’s “Year of the Librarian” during National Library Week: Robert r. McClarren RECEPTION SUNDAY APRIL 16, 2:30 P.M. Concert by internationally known Classi­ cal Guitarist Norman Ruiz, (also a Deer­ field resident), hors d’ouevres, and convi­ viality at Deerfield Public Library. R.S.V.P.945-3311 Birthday: March 15, 1921 Birthplace: Winameg, Ohio Current Home: Deerfield since 1967. Marital Status: Happily married to the same wife for 15,675 days. Children: Mark, 37, Todd, 34 First Library Job: Pre-professional: Page, Westerville, Ohio, Public Library. I collect: Archaeological Indian artifacts, Railroadiana (dining car recipes, menus, nappery, flatware, “silver” service, and pottery/china). Picture post cards, Items of postal history, Sunday School Union books, Tabacco silks, flannels, and leath­ ers (early 20ih century cigarette package inserts), Jazz records Favorite Pigout Food: B.C. (before cholesterol), cold Dungeness crab with mayonnaise, and fried country ham; A.C., unoiled, unsalted popcorn and home made oatmeal. I’d give anything to have met: My great grandfather, Dresden Winfield Huston Howard, and “Scurvy” Miller, top banana, Gayety burlesque theater, De­ troit, 1940. Best thing about Deerfield: Paved streets and the railroad through town. They didn’t teach me in library school: How to make library paste. If I could change one thing about my­ self: Increase the actuarial projection for my longevity. The book I’ve recommended lately: Mark Twain, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Greatest achievement: Participating in the establishment of cooperative library activities involving all types of libraries for the purpose of sharing their resources. The one thing everyone’s tried but me: Rafting the Grand Canyon. When I retire: I want to stay up as late as I want and then sleep as long as I want, and attend no more library board or committee meetings as a library staff member. �Sl’CXC'J’ . . . Recently there have been items in the newspaper and on TV about Librarians and the FBI. What the issue is all about is the FBI's interest in what people are read­ ing. I have been asked several times if that could happen in Deerfield, and since we use computers whether or not we keep a log of everything people read. Let's take last things first. We do not maintain a file of what our patrons read. We do have a record of what patrons take out, but when the materials arc returned, all records are erased. The computers are programmed not to compile a list of what a patron reads. First because it is a very bad idea, and second because it is specifically illegal to compile and reveal such a list in the State of Illinois. (Library Records Confidentiality Act, P.A. 83-179) This law clearly states that no one may view any Library record without a court order. So, we would cooperate with the FBI, within the spirit and the letter of a just and protective law. However, the only in­ formation our records will show are name, address, and telephone number. The book I am recommending this month is Ward Just’s new novel. Jack Gance, about a Chicago boy who attends the University of Chicago, studies politi­ cal science, goes to work for the local machine and ends up as a U.S. Senator. This is serious fiction about American politics, everyone’s favorite spectator sport. Lights, Camera, Action! If you miss a program at the library you may be able to catch it on Deerfield cable television or on tape available at the lib­ rary'. John Sanner, Deerfield resident has retired from a 22 year career at G.D. Searlc, and now has his own video service company. He will be taping Deerfield Lib­ rary programs. Presently they arc scheduled to air on Deerfield’s Library Channel 10 on Post Newsweek Cable. The time is tentatively Mon., Wed., Fri., at 8 p.m. The actual tapes, on Allergy/ Asthma, Shakespeare, Norman Ruiz con­ cert/reception, and Truman Capote book review may be seen on tv or borrowed from the library after their “live in lib­ rary" performances. Learning The Online Catalog Throughout the winter, the Reference Department offered classes on the use of the online computer catalog. While formal classes have ceased, librarians are happy to offer assistance with the catalogs. The old card catalogs are no longer in the lib­ rary. “Can You Recommend A Good Book”? If you’re a fan of thrillers or a devotee of historical fiction, there are two brand new annotated bibliographies for you at the library. Each list describes choice books from the past five years selected from Deerfield’s fiction collection. Hurry in to pick up your own copy before they disappear. Then you can read your way through your favorite genre all summer long.

R380.025/WOR Adult Programs The Capote Mystique Wednesday, May 10, 7:30p.m. Virginia Carter, Deerfield’s favorite book review lady, will explore the world of Truman Capote, his most successful books and stories including the massive biography Capote by Gerald Clarke. Au­ thor of In Cold Blood, Breakfast at Tif­ fany ’s and smaller pieces such as A Christ­ mas Memory, Capote, was, according to Clarke, "a man of contradiction. He could be mean, spiteful, boring, churlish and hurtful. . .he could also be lovable and generous. . .at his best he was more fun than anybody else”. Robert L.

Truman Capote �Youth Services is Coining Spring Storyhours Begin Registration for spring storyhours in the Youth Services Department will begin on Monday, April 3. In-person registralion will begin at 9:30 a.m. and phone re­ gistration will start at 11:00 a.m. The storyhours will be held on: Mondays Tuesdays Wednesdays Thursdays 10:00- 10:30a.m. 1:30- 2:00 p.m. 10:00- 10:30 a.m. 1:30- 2:00 p.m. 7:00- 7:30p.m. 10:00- 10:30a.m. 1:30-2:00 p.m. 7:00 -7:30 p.m. The sessions will run from April 10 May 18. Registration will be on a firstcome, first-served basis, and you must show your Deerfield Library card. You may register one child besides your own if you have the other parent’s Deerfield Lib­ rary card. Preschool storyhours are de­ signed for prekindergarten children 3-5 years old. However, kindergarteners are welcome to attend one of the evening storyhours. The program features stories, songs, fingerplays, and other other ac­ tivities geared to this age group. New Juvenile Books On a recent trip to England Peggy McCabe of the Adult Readers Advisory Department did some scouting for books for the Youth Services Department. She brought back some additional books by E. Nesbit, including some about the Bastable children. For tum-of-the-century English family fun you might enjoy reading The Wouldbcgoods or The New Treasure Seekers. The Bastable children always seem to get in (and out) of trouble! Another book we’ve enjoyed and you might too is The Way Things Work by David Macaulay. Not only does Macaulay explain how machines do what they do do in a humorous and very palatable way, but he also shows how the concept behind one invention is linked to the concept of another. This is a book for the whole fam­ ily to share, including the least mechani­ cally minded. Trustee Reich Leaves Board * * I’m not retiring. I still live here. I just choose not to run,” said Charlene Reich, who has lived in Deerfield for 30 years and has just completed 14 years as a valuable member of the Deerfield Library Board of Trustees. (Elections for library board pos­ itions are April 4) Over the years, Mrs. Reich says it has been smooth sailing despite many changes, particularly in the area of library technology. “Computers, videos, books on tape, cd’s, a wonderful music collec­ tion — other options to reading — have in­ creased” she said, “yet reading is still up. The role of a board member is often misunderstood. Mrs. Reich likens it to running a home. You make policy deci­ sions, handle personnel, housekeeping, carpet, furniture, reorganization of space. Unlike home, the library has a budget of almost a million dollars and a large staff with complicated tasks of ordering, 99 budgeting, book selection, cataloging and so on. The staff works to make the library a place to be proud of, giving the public what they want. “We don’t pick the books or tell the librarians what to do; we hire experts for that. We set policies and the administration carries them out.” Mrs. Reich says she will miss being on the board where she has also served on the Policy Committee. She feels, however that it is time for new people to be involved. While an active spokesperson for Capture some excitement on our safari to adventure this summer when “The Great Book Hunt” gets underway. Our summer activities will start Tuesday, June 13 with registration for special programs and workshops. Monday, June 19 the Summer Reading Club will begin. Wed­ nesday nights will be filled with new ex­ periences during our Family Nights, and Thursday afternoons we'll always have movies to enjoy. So track down some fun at the library this summer! Our summer newsletter will have more details. Movies, Movies, Movies We’ll be showing some short movies in the months ahead on selected Saturday mornings from 10:00 - 10:30 a.m. for younger chil­ dren. The films will be: April 8— In Dutch Night’s Nice Rosie’s Walk May 13— Tammy the Toad Tennessee Birdwalk Strega Nonna Why not join us? the library, she also served as President of the Deerfield Women’s Club, and worked with church, PTA and County Literacy Program. She now hopes to devote more time to working as a volunteer teacher in the “English as a Second Language program. Her interest in Food and Nutri­ tion, a college major, is satisfied by in­ volvement in the North Suburban Home Economists Organization. Reich and her husband George have 3 grown sons. Serving on the board for 14 years has been a real learning experience, Reich says. The board has had a good mix of oc­ cupations and interests and she hopes they will continue to work in a congenial atmosphere. The board’s future deliberations will include a space plan that will make best and most efficient use of the library’s resources. A consultant has been hired for this purpose. “I want to leave everything in good hands” said Mrs. Reich. The staff and Deerfield community sincerely thank her for her enthusiasm, time, and commitment to the library. �(QUO QoUd 90S) • ' • pQJIAUJ QJ6 noX Noaivd ivisod an3ida33Q 961 °N TI *PI»!jJ»aa aivd aovisod sn Ajejqn onqnd piai.^oea 9d0 UdOddNON Spring 1989 Calendar April 3 Storyhourregistration9:30a.m. 8 Movies for young children 10:00- 10:30 a.m. 10 Storyhours begin 10:00 a.m. 16 Reception, Norman Ruiz Concert 2:30 p.m. 25 Nature and Wildflower Photography 7:30 p.m. May 10 The Capote Mystique 7:30 p.m. 13 Movies for young children 10:00- 10:30 a.m. 29 Memorial Day - Library Closed June 13 Register for Youth Services Programs 19 Summer Reading Club begins Free Blood Pressure screening: First Thursday of each month, 6:15 - 8:15 p.m. DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY Quarterly Newsletter Phone: 945-3311 Executive Librarian: Jack Hicks Library Board Tom Parfitt, President Rosemary Sazonoff, Secretary Tony Sabato, Treasurer Jack Anderson Sue Benn Wilbur Page Charlene Reich LIBRARY HOURS Mon. -Thurs.:9:30a.m. -9:00p.m. 9:30 a.m. -5:00 p.m. Fri., Sat.: 1:00p.m. -5:00p.m. Sun.: Closed Sun. beginning May 28 Editor: Sally Brickman Contributors Rick Bean Peggy McCabe Jean Reuther AskAProfessional.

Deerfield, IL 60015 Summer 1989 Vol. 4 No. 3 Sazonoff and Wolff Win Board Seats Sir Isaac Newton is reported to have said near the end of his life that he seemed to have been like a mere boy, playing on the seashore and diverting himself now and then by finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay undiscovered before him. That’s the way it is for me and many librarians: shelves of books that span dis­ tance, the ages, and all human thought, but are really a great ocean of truth just wailing there to be discovered. In this month’s column it is a privilege to recommend two local authors, each with intensely personal insights but with totally different styles and genres. It is ex­ citing to find a gem of a book, or an author you previously did not know, and to be able to tell a friend about your find. This gets to the heart of why people become lib­ rarians in the the first place: reading and sharing. One of the Chicago area’s finest writ­ ers is Chicago attorney and Deerfield resi­ dent Lowell Komie, whose perceptive and revealing short stories about lawyers have been critically acclaimed. I recommend reading The Judge's Chamber and Other Stories, a collection previously published by the American Bar Association as its first work of fiction. The style and wit of this book make it something very special to recommend to friends. The other area writer is Harold Gershowitz, a Northbrook resident and busi­ ness executive whose first novel has sold over 350,000 copies and received the Friends of Literature Award for Fiction. Remember This Dream is a thirty-year chronicle told through the eyes of two sis­ ters, one who emigrates to America while the other stays in Poland. The British equi­ valent of the Book-of-the-Month Club has acquired rights for its hardcover publica­ tion. Have a good Summer; we have an ex­ citing summer reading program for chil­ dren, lots of new books, programs for adults, and a great Fall ahead. Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian The “ffs” won it on April 4. Rosemary Sazonoff and David Wolff were each elected to six-year terms as trustees of the Deerfield Library Board. Sazonoff has been a Deerfield resident for 32 years and a library board member for 13 years. To her, books and libraries are very precious. She recalls volunteering at the Deerfield Library when it was in a storefront. A feature writer for the Lemer Newspap­ ers, she has been involved in numerous Deerfield community groups. “I am delighted to have the opportunity to help the library move ahead. 1 ran for office because times are changing and I feel I can offer continuity to the board. Wolff, a manufacturers’ representative for five metal fabricating companies, has lived in Deerfield for 17 years and has been active with the Deerfield Community Con­ cert Band and Big Band Sound of Deerfield. An active library user, he also looks forward to working with the board and staff toward continued growth “of one of the best modem suburban libraries in the state.” He hopes to become to involved with the North Subur­ ban Library System and “to show the adults and children how easy it is to unlock the sec­ >* rets of the past at the library, as these are the keys to the future. Nonresident Fees Increase The Deerfield Library Board of Directors approved a $125 fee for nonresident library cards effective May 1, 1989. Heretofore the fee was $100. Fees, Pai annually, cover library service for all family members. Last year 177 families held non resident library cards. They live in Ban­ nockburn, Riverwoods, and unincorpo­ rated Deerfield. The Illinois Secretary of State requires all public libraries that provide nonresi­ dent library service to charge a fee that is equivalent to the average cost a resident pays in taxes to support the library. The state provides the formula to the library. The boundaries of service for the Deer­ field Public Library are the same as the Village limits of Deerfield. These bound­ aries are not related to U.S. Post Office ZIP codes or the limits of West Deerfield Township. No Summer Sundays Between Memorial Day and Labor Day the Deerfield Public Lib­ rary is closed on Sundays, but it’s business as usual Mon. through Thurs. 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Fri. and Sat. 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friends Start Up Save the date — Sunday, July 9 at 2 p.m. to get together with interested Deer­ field friends and neighbors to talk about organization of a Library Friends Group. Discussion will include formal establishment of the group, projects, activities and responsibilities for library support and promotion.

Another Farewell The staff also bid a fond farewell in spring to another long-term staff member, Ken Hoffman. Ken retired after 16 ycar^^fe of service as Head of Maintenance. Oftcr^^ referred to as the “heart of the library, Ken was always there when needed and usually cheered the staff with a song as the day began! He will be missed! Peggy McCabe To Retire Peggy McCabe After twenty years at the library. . . “On a dark and stormy night in London, England, I was born,” said Peggy McCabe, Deerfield’s well known Reader Services’ Librarian. Actually, it wasn’t really dark and stormy but it was London*. After 20 years of selecting fiction for the Deerfield Library, Peggy likes to fantasize! Her Scottish father, a golf professional, and English mother, settled in Deerfield many years ago, but later moved to Crystal Lake. Coincidentally, Peggy and her husband also moved to Deerfield 30 years ago. She has lived here ever since. After graduation from Lake Forest College, Peggy taught English at the college. She later received a Master’s Degree in Library Science from Rosary College. In 1969, to fulfill terms of a scholarship awarded by the state, she began a two-year stint at Deerfield Public Library. However, when her husband died at 45, she began a library career that stretched to 20 years. In those days the library was located in what is now the City Hall Annex and she was the only adult librarian working with Administrative Librarian Suzanne Whetstone. Peggy’s title changed several times and her duties were many: reference work, fiction selection, programming, service to the Blind & Physically Handicapped, and even a shot at cataloging. In the early days there were only books; she built the record/cassette col­ lection, as well as the large print and talking books collection. She has particularly en­ joyed the reference work. “The library has grown tremendously during the time Peggy has been here” said Jack Hicks. Administrative Librarian, “and Peggy was instrumental in much of that growth. Her imprint is on our building, our collection, and our services; she has given much of herself and her talents”.

Be a Friend, Have a Friend �Aviate' *76e When I was a lot younger, and working at a summer resort job, I lived in a lake cot­ tage where Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald had spent the summer season following the publication of This Side of Paradise. Like many Minnesotans, I was very proud and awed by the local authors-Sinclair Lewis and F. Scott Fitzgerald. To live in the same house (it is still there) was very romantic and exciting. At that time I had read all of Fitzgerald’s novels and many of his magazine pieces. I have recently reread This Side ofParadise and Tender is the Night and find that Fitzgerald’s literary hold on me is as strong and lyrical as ever. Another Minnesotan, Charles Lindbergh, has always held a fascination for me, (though I enjoyed his wife-Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s books more) and I recently reread his 1953 book, Spirit of St. Louis. It is so much superior to the j revisionist histories, like the puerile 1977 Lindbergh Alone, by Brendan Gill. As a middle aged adult I was even more moved and touched by the lucid and enigmatic Lindbergh than I was when I read that book in my twenties. It is interesting to contrast the two Min­ nesotans. Lindbergh was slightly the younger of the two; he rejected the values of monied society, yet moved within the society that Fitzgerald was desperate to penetrate. Fitzgerald craved and lived on publicity but could not control it; Lindbergh shunned publicity yet used it with professional ability when it suited his purpose. Fitzgerald wrote of the upper leisure classes and the human universal he so poetically perceived. Lindbergh had a great grasp of the ethereal, the mysterious and the aesthetics of the natural world. Fitzgerald died young and rejected; Lindbergh lived through a period of public rejection to lead a productive and very interesting life. To get to the point, I highly recommend you read (or reread) both of these fine authors if you have not done so recently. | The contemporary book I am recommending this month is A Fann Under a Lake, by Martha Bergland, a well told story of two Illinois farm families and their attachment to the land. Strong women characters define this novel of the plight of the modern farmer in competition with I economic realities.

Deerfield, IL 60015 Winter 1989-90 Vol. 5, No. 1 the e *De4h A hearty welcome to the new North Suburban Library System Director, Sarah Long. Sarah has had an interesting library career, including a stint in England. She comes to our local system from Portland, Oregon. Sarah is quite well known in the world of libraries, and we are fortunate to have her as head of NSLS. I wish her all the best in the coming years. The nice part is that she is a Deerfield resident. The book I am recommending this month is Among Schoolchildren, by Tracy Kidder. When you think of fine creative writing, fiction is usually what comes to mind; but I feel that some of our most creative writers today are writing in the non-fiction tradi­ tion. Four are John McPhee, Richard Rhodes, Paul Fussell, and Tracy Kidder. Together they have written nearly forty books—all of them fine, creative writingall fascinating. Some of the recent titles are: John McPhee—Outcroppings, Rising from the Plains, Heirs of General Practice. Richard Rhodes—Farm, The Making ofthe Atomic Bomb, The Last Safari. Paul Fussell— Wartime, Thank God for the Atom Bomb, and interestingly, a book about my all-time favorite author, Siegfried Sasson’s Long Journey. Tracy Kidder has back-to-back best sellers in his books House and Among Schoolchildren. These are outstanding books. Among Schoolchildren traces the yearly accomplishments of a very uncommon grade school teacher as she practices her skill among seriously deprived fifth graders. Kidder captures the daily classroom life, the interaction of the children and the caring that the teacher, Mrs. Zajac, brings to each child and each day. The Chicago Tribune described this book as “stirring hearts and minds...in the necessary, caring heroism of a dedicated fifth grade teacher. This genre of creative non-fiction is not a new phenomenom, but these writers bring enormous talent, style, and craft to bear on a type of book too frequently overlooked. I urge you to read one of their books. Talking Books for the Reading Disabled The Deerfield Library participates in the Library of Congress National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. This is a free national library program for visually and physically handicapped persons who are unable to read or use standard printed material because of blindness, visual disabilities, or physical limitations. The National Library Service produces full length books and magazines on recorded disc and cassette and in braille. Special cassette and record players are provided in order to listen to these books. Persons who fill out an application (signature from a certifying authority verifying their physical difficulty is required by law) may enroll in Deerfield’s talking book program. They may borrow from a variety of 27,000 titles on disc and tape, as well as over 8,000 titles from the regional braille library. The options include popular interest books, best sellers, classics, mysteries, westerns, romances, poetry, histories, biographies, music instruction, children’s books, and foreign language materials. Participants may also subscribe to more than 70 popular magazines in recorded format and in braille. They may request specific books, or may select from a variety of catalogs. Participation in the program ineludes free, no time limit, use of the special special playback equipment and a free talking book catalog mailed to the residence six times a year. All of these special books on tape go through the mail postage free. Headphones and pillow phones are also available. To apply for this service, contact a librarian or Nancy Faulk at the Circulation Desk. Deerfield Library’s regional source for these materials is the Suburban Audio Visual Service of The North Suburban Library System. In addition to this special National Library Service, the library has a substantial large print book collection, and an increasing number of audio cassette books on tape that can be played on regular cassette tape players. These in-house collections, of course, require only your Deerfield Library card, 99 Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian We start ’em early....Seven month old Lauren Potempa of Deerfield, a regular at the library, rests on the Circulation Desk while her mother checks out books. �Adult Programs There is no chargefor library programs, but reser\>ations are requested.

Active Friends Set Goals/Plans The newly formed Friends of the Deer­ field Library have established a service goal (possibly library service to shut-ins), elected officers, begun a membership cam­ paign, formed a board, and started plann­ ing two major activities. They plan to develop a community wide calendar/bulletin board to list organiza­ tions’ meeting dates, times and locations. This should eliminate overlapping of scheduled meetings/events. Committee planners can fill out forms for calendar listings in the library in early January.

Psychotherapist and col^B lege instructor, Peter Sternberg, M.S.W. will look at how these “unopened letters can become a rich source of growth, self understanding, creativity and problem solv­ ing. Participants should plan to attend both sessions where dream material may be presented and questions answered.

Appropriate for new as well as past participants, the sessions promote thoughtful inquiry. To register, call 433-7884. Oast As the decade comes to a close, and holi­ day time brings us thoughts of good will to all, we would like to express publicly our thanks to some Deerfield residents who have given of themselves and worked hard, (some behind the scenes), to bring better library service and/or programs to the com­ munity. Our 1989 library angels are: Bill Bixby, Virginia & Nick Carter, Tom Jester, Richard Lyon, Bob McClarren, and Steve Neulander. Also a note of thanks and a happy new^B year to our Library Board of Trustees who work long hours with no pay for the benefit of Deerfield Public Library. Their names are on page four. �Staff Changes Rick Bean, reference librarian at Deer­ field Library for over four years, has left become a reference librarian at DePaul niversity. Mr. Bean, well known to many Deerfield patrons, accomplished a number of professional duties at the library includ­ ing valuable assistance in the preparation of the online catalog for public use, a Business Resources Index and public relations activities. Two librarians, Cindy Wargo and Karen Hicks (no relation to Jack) are now sharing the position vacated by Mr. Bean. Cindy and Karen are not new to the library as they formerly shared part time weekend posts at the reference desk. Both are Deerfield residents, hold masters’ degrees in library science from the University of Illinois, are married and have young children. Cindy’s past experience includes 11 years at Evanston Public Library where she was Head of the Reference Department. Karen was a librarian at Maine West High School in Des Plaines for six years, and reference librarian at Cook Memorial Public Library for 2Vi years. Tom Sherman, newly appointed Head of Building Maintenance, was a page at the Deerfield Library for 6 months prior to his appointment. His diverse background inudes gardening at the Botanic Gardens, >use painting, and selling at Kroch’s and Brentano’s bookstore. Youth Services Winter Story hours Pre-school storyhours, designed for 3-5 year old pre-kindergarteners, will run Jan. 22-Feb. 26.

The parking lot has been restriped with an increased diagonal double row con­ figuration that permits 17 new parking spaces, including an additional handi­ capped space. Suggestion for this change came from seniors Tom Zahnle and Ed Hollar. Karen Hicks Cindy Wargo Tom Sherman New Software Programs The Youth Services Department has some new software available for patron use on the Apple HE. Among the programs are: “Curious George Goes Shopping” — Children become involved in helping George find various items on his shopping list. “Math Rabbit” — As they play circus games, children develop skills in counting, adding, subtracting and recognizing number relationships. “Where in Europe Is Carmen San Diego?” — Older children will enjoy track­ ing down a thief in one of 34 European countries. Saturday Stories Kindergarteners and first graders are in­ vited to the popular Saturday Stories which will be held December 16 and February 10. These sessions are similar to the preschool storyhours but feature longer, more com­ plicated stories and often a short craft project. There will be separate registration for each program, beginning one week prior to the program. An additional 100 people per month are taking advantage of reciprocal borrow­ ing arrangements of the North Suburban Libraries. (This permits members of other communities to borrow Deerfield books— and vice versa.) They’re borrowing at a rapid rate. Monthly borrowing for all items at Deerfield continues to average a steady 22,000. Literally hundreds of junior high students visited the library for instruc­ tion/orientation in Fall. The library’s Harold Gershowitz November program elicited the following response from an attendee “This was a great moment for me. Moment means the hour plus spent here.’’ The charismatic local author of best seller “Remember This Dream” donates all proceeds from his book to the Holocaust Memorial Fund. The book was 10 years in the writing, in long hand on a legal pad during weekends. Need a tax write off? The Youth Ser­ vices Department needs used blenders, computers, and record players in working condition for future programs.

Deerfield, IL 60015 the, dli&KViitiM '<$, "Dedh Anyone who has ever been in my office knows 1 am a Civil War buff; the walls are covered with prints of battles, significant events and personalities of that war. I come by my hobby by inheritance: two of my great-grandfathers served with the Union—one in the Ohio 2d Heavy Artil­ lery7, the other with the 9th Illinois. My in­ terest has been rekindled lately because of the excellent exhibit, “A House Divided," currently on display at the Chicago Historical Society, and the release of the film "Glory" about the 54th Massachusetts Infantry. The latter has all been made more appropriate because February was Black History Month. We have many book titles dealing with the Civil War, fiction and non-fiction. The classic combat novel of the Civil War The Red Badge of Courage, sums up the pro­ blem with most of the historical fiction of that period. It was written by a non­ participant after the fact. I am a firm believer in historical fiction. Dicken's por­ trait of 19th century London will always be the authoritative one no matter how many revisionist history books are written today. From Here to Eternity by James Jones and Norman Mailer’s Naked and the Dead define World War II for us. It is different with our Civil War; the best materials that we have are the diaries, letters, battlefield art, Mathew Brady photographs, the museums and their memorabilia. Gone for a Soldier, Echo of a Distant Drum, and Battles and Leaders ofthe Civil War are all good examples of first person narratives. The Women and the Crisis, Lee’s Lieutenants, and The Twentieth Maine are typical of the fine post-war non­ fiction that we have. As for historical fiction, I would recommend Jubilee, Killer Angels, Across Five Aprils, Unto this Hour, and Gone With the Wind. I still enjoy Carl Sandburg’s biographies of Lincoln and Mary Chesnut’s diaries. The Civil War has often been called a fire bell in the night—an exciting time in American history. What could be more ex­ citing than the events in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union for the past six months? The momentous changes we have seen hap­ pen are incredible. I am sure people will read about this thrilling era in history books a hundred years from now. But until then I’ll stick with my two-volume edition of The Gettysburg Papers.

Deerfield. IL 60015 Summer 1990 Vol. 5, No. 3 /lcn,<x44 t&e What is going to happen to fiction in the next few years? A real genre staple has been the anti-Russian-Berlin Wall-British-spyas-savior book. Deighton, Clancy, LeCarre, Follett, Ludlum, Higgins—the list goes on forever—have made a cottage industry and sizeable fortunes bashing the USSR and the Berlin Wall. What are they going to do without those all-powerful com­ rades to knock flat? The thread of so many books has been villain-as-non-person; hurt, violently punished, crushed and shot to pieces because he deserved it. Since fiction so often closely reflects values of the Society in which it was writ­ ten, what will the future hold and will the new array of slimy villains be from the U.S., or Asia, or the Middle-East? These books have angry themes of alienation, with convenient targets for our aggressions. Hopefully, Fiction will see a renaissance of creative ideas with a message of reconcilia­ tion, gentleness, and healing. Can the literary conventions we have all come to accept collapse of their own weight like the Berlin Wall, or will we insist on a clone-like perpetuation of the themes of hate and alienation for the next decade? I certainly hope that writers don't seek out the nearest enemy and reinvent this genre all over again. With the runaway success of *' the movie, “Hunt for Red October, maybe I'm the only one who would like to see an end to hate and fear in our everyday reading. The book we are recommending this month comes from Martha Sloan, our Readers’ Services Librarian, who thinks very highly of Floating in my Mother’s Palm, by Ursula Hegi, a novel which evokes a warm and loving childhood in postwar Germany where Hiker’s name is never mentioned. ----- Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian No chance for boredom when you ‘ ‘beach it” staying tuned to Station READ for fun, reading relaxation and prizes in the Youth Services Department this summer. The Summer Reading Club begins the week of June 18 and enrollment is unlimited! Books you read will be record­ ed on a jukebox folder. Preschoolers and kindergarteners can join their own Read To Me Club, and fill their beach bucket folder with their favorite titles. The last day to report on books will be Friday, July 27. Remember: the greatest reading hits will be found at 1990 on your Waukegan Road dial! Grab your radio, beach chair, sunglasses and books and join us. See Young People’s page inside for more sum­ mer fun at the library and stop in for a summer program booklist. So, What’s New? Look around and you will see many new improvements designed to serve you better. —Photocopy charges have been reduced from 15 cents to 10 cents. —Lights in the upstairs meeting room improved to raise the candlepower and light diffusion; dimmer switches for con­ venience, Juno track lights “on stage’’ so evening program speakers can be seen as well as heard! New microphones and sound systems also have been installed in both meeting rooms. —New shelving in the fiction room to pro­ vide more space for new fiction, all Large Print books, and most of the libraries’ short story collections. Short stories including mysteries and science fiction are now com­ ing together in one place for convenient browsing! —Minolta Reader Printer replaces a 17-year-old Kodak machine that no longer is repaired by Kodak. The Minolta 605 uses standard paper and dry copier chemicals, zoom lens and motor drive for clearer, cleaner microfilm copies. It makes white on black or black on white paper copies. Assistance from librarians is required for use. —Window film on the west windows, 3M gradient densisty mylar film designed to cut the heat penetration by 60%, cut glare by 57% and block all ultraviolet rays for coolness and comfort in the library. —New IBM series computer for public use in Young People’s area. —Coming attractions: Look for a new system that will bring you current “hot” books faster, and look for a new sign out­ side the library to make the library’s loca­ tion more visible. �Adult Programs Programs in the library arefree, but reser­ vations are requested. Alaska Thursday, June 28, 7:30p.m. Keep cool with Anne and Charles Vesely, world travelers, who present the beauty of McKinley National Park. Eskimo lore, glaciers, the pipeline and many wonders of our 49th state. Their slide presentation uses two projectors, a dissolve unit, narration and music. Coffee/Conversation/Book Discussion Join New Reader Services Librarian Martha Sloan two Thursday mornings for informal discussion of “good reads”. This will also be an opportunity for you to share with others books you have enjoyed on a special theme. Thursday, July 12, 10:30 a.m.: Memoirs of Childhood, books you’ve liked, ones you’ve missed. Thursday, August 2, 10:30 a.m.: On-theRoad Books of the 80’s: young and old have now joined in the Huck Finn tradition; let’s talk about it! And The Winners Are As a National Library Week celebration, the library sponsored a Reach for a Star Contest, asking patrons to tell which books made an impact on their lives. The votes are in, as Deerfield Friends of the Library members Cathy Chay, Lois Stransky, and Jean Lucas judged the entries: First prize: Children and Their Parents: Toward Maturity, by Suzanne Fremon, 1968, submitted by Joan Freedman. This book changed the kind of parent I was and had lasting effects not only on me but on my children. It helped me focus on our main goal of fostering their positive growth and development and our relation­ ship with them.... 99 Second prize: Remembrance of Things Past, by Marcel Proust, submitted by June Hamer. “My favorite books are the seven volumes of Remembrance...From this work I have learned to love everyone and see beauty everywhere. The writing is so brilliant, exquisite, and refined that I am not willing for a day to pass without dipping in­ to one of these volumes. In time of crisis, remembering the priorities...helped me respond and brought us together in work­ ing to solve each problem. 99 “I Can’t Find That Book” TRAVEL TOUR: Historic Homes in Chicago Saturday, July 28, 9:00 a.m. An air conditioned deluxe motorcoach will meet us at the door of the Deerfield Library at 9:00 a.m. to explore early residential areas and homes in the City of Chicago. Included in the tour will be a visit to the Henry B. Clarke House built in 1836; it is restored to its original state and filled with authentic objects from this time period. In addition to a complete luncheon at Le Loup, we will be touring landmark neighborhoods with a number of architec­ tural styles, and visit a charming liv­ ing/studio/gallery space of one of the city’s creative artists in Bucktown. We shall return to the library at 2:45 p.m. Cost of the tour is $39.50 per person, and this nonreftindable payment (to Deerfield Library) is required before June 27. Come along! (What happens when you lose your library book, cassette, etc.) If you lose an item, our goal is to recover the original copy whenever possible, because replacing materials can easily cost the library almost twice the purchase price. Why? Because replacement involves up­ dating computer files, reordering and recataloging the book, re-labeling it with new pocket and cover, and preparing it for circulation. To cover these costs, many libraries charge patrons large fines or a processing fee in addition to the price of the book. Here at Deerfield, we only charge the purchase price, but we do wait two months for the book to be found before billing you. Dur­ ing this waiting period, circulation staff will remind you about the missing book each lime you use your library card—unless you beat them to it by saying you found it! Moral of this story—the book may be in your car, or hidden behind the VCR—keep searching! Third prize: Profiles in Courage, by John F. Kennedy, submitted by Howard Richter. “A single line, ‘of course everyone is familiar with the courage shown by John Adams in his defense of the British soldic in the Boston Massacre’ stumped m history teacher, 2 librarians and a U. of Penn, professor. It became the term paper of this previously non motivated high school student leading to my original research in Boston and the National Ar­ chives before I was 17, and later an M.A. in history. 9i Other books that stretched our Deerfield residents to reach for a star included: Such a Vision of the Street Remnants: the Last Jews of Poland Return of the Twelves An Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin Rocket Ship Galileo The Double Helix At Risk The Giving Tree A Summer to Die God’s Little Acre A Tree Grows in Brooklyn Crime and Punishment 30 Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary Eleni The Fountainhead The Bible Atlas Shrugged Little Women The Chronicles of Narnia Madeline The Road Less Traveled The Memoirs of George Sherston The Eyes of the Dragon Charlotte’s Web In Search of Excellence Laura Ingalls Wilder Bound for Glory Winner’s Edge Commanded to Live When Children Ask About God Keep the Lights Burning, Abbie The Autobiography of Bill Peet No Smoking!
