This shift was necessary as the collection has grown so much. Without enlarging the building, the lower level Fiction Room had been constructed and left available space for collection growth. The 800 s and the 900’s are now in the east room next to biographies. The videos are permanently on the north wall. Books on cassette tape are housed in temporary shelving in this room. In the west room, all Reference materials and the 000 s through 700 s were shifted forward on the shelves. Circulating business books are now merged into the circulating nonfic­ tion collection (in numbered se­ quence). A reference librarian can assist you in finding materials. In fall you will see more “sprucing up” of public space. Architect R. Scott Javore and Associates' plans have been approved and renovation begins!

Judith Hortin, Head of Reference, will limit class size to four people to pro­ vide individual training. A variety of days and times will be offered. Check schedule at front desk. Res­ ervations are required. We will call to remind you of your class as we expect to have waiting lists. Those lines from Allen Ginsberg’s epic poem, Howl, summed up and energized a whole generation in the 1950’s. I remember the first time I heard Ginsberg read live from his work; it was like being hit by lightning. Ginsberg's rhythms, wild phrasing, and meaningless imagery overturned everything I had been taught, ev­ and then they said that fl could renew my books over the phone. \ WOW! ^ erything that gave order and discipline to writing, espe­ cially poetry. I followed Ginsberg's career, work and ^M life, over the years and always felt that he was the moral ethical spokesman for my generation. I did not always agree with either his life or his work, but his insight and w artistry plumbed the central issues of our age. Yes, he occasionally verged on the bizarre in his appearance y and his poetry, but there always remained the vital, moral ethical voice that never failed to ring out defining free­ dom, individuality, and resistance to life lived as a cli­ che. Allen Ginsberg's work will live forever, discussed, He Hon! Best entry in theme for our 70th Birthday “cake” in the July 4th pa­ rade.

While that thought was still roll­ ing around in the back of my mind, Carl Sagan and Jacques Cousteau also died and then that idea began to really bother me. Who will speak for us? Certainly, I did not always agree with what Sagan wrote or said, but behind the man was that same moral ethical voice that had made Allen Ginsberg part of my life. Sagan spoke and wrote for years, but it took television to make him a household word. His concern for the fu­ ture, the environment and the whole world’s quality of life is unparalleled today. Ultimately Sagan became somewhat of a parody of him­ self, lending his thought and delivery to comics to mimic, but his moral ethical concerns remain clear and direct. I only wish the current movie, Contact, on which Sagan collaborated, was a more fitting tribute to the man. Sagan's books and thoughts will be with us for a long time. I first learned the name Cousteau when in 19541 bought a two-hose scuba regulator used for skin diving that was made in France and marked Cousteau-Gagnan. I used that regu­ lator to dive all over the state of Minnesota to discover the unimpeded joys of scuba diving. Later in the 1950’s Cousteau made his fame with his books and the obscure French naval officer, who in partnership with Emil Gagnon developed the first practical underwater breath­ ing device. Cousteau went far in his life, from inventor and itinerant diver to probably the most recognized and respected spokesman for our natural environment. He spoke, wrote and made films that delivered that same message over and over: our world is precious and man is working overtime to destroy it; save it now or it will be lost forever. Who will speak for us? The passing of these three diverse men is an incalculable loss to us as a society, made more important because there is no one on the horizon who can take their place. I see our generation as more inter­ ested in entertainment and glamour than in serious thought. The idea of the serious writer as a major force in our lives is a concept that is no longer important in our society. The ques­ tion now is who will be the next celebrity telling us they are going to Disneyworld. Since we get all our ideas and heroes from films, entertain­ ment and the media, it is an easy guess to pre­ dict an increasing trivialization and commercial­ ization of our lives. For now we are stuck with witless news anchors, talk show hosts, and sound bites. History proves everything in the world—economics, social thought, politics, world view—goes in cycles eventually we will return to a point where the genius, wisdom and humanity of Ginsberg, Sagan and Cousteau will be appreciated. Who will speak for us? In the meantime, I recommend this sam­ pling of their writing.

A 1914 AAA tour guide told how to drive to Deerfield so you could lunch at Deerspring Farm. Cross country events and racing advanced technology and cars grew into reliable transportation. Roads lagged behind, but by the twen­ ties and thirties the Lincoln Highway and Route 66 spanned the nation. Eisenhower’s national defense high­ ways finally tied the country together and were the catalyst for growth of au­ tomobile travel as we know it today. These highways are probably the most influential agents of social change that this country has ever seen.They allowed for, encouraged, and fostered the growth of the suburbs; changed the way we relate to one another, changed where and how we could work, whom we would marry, where we would shop,where our children would be educated, where and how we vacation , how we live. As the use of cars expanded, re-ex­ panded, and became the most common form of daily transportation it was only a short time before they became the stan­ dard way to get to work, and the daily commute became a part of everyone's life. In the suburbs the station wagon-now vans and sport utilities-became Mom’s rite of passage. The use of cars brought with it the necessary rules and regulations to make their operation safe and effec­ tive. Unregulated roads were chaos:rules brought order, discipline and safety. Safety. That is the word behind ev­ ery single traffic rule that exists. Disobey the rules, and crash into another car. Run a stop light, and run down another human being. Speed, and kill the child as she runs for her puppy. It was really just common sense, over time, that led to all the traffic laws and regulations that govern us today. What I see on my daily one mile trek to the Library disavows all of this. What I see is a growing chaos; a daily reduction in safety, civility, and courtesy. Safety: safety is the biggest loss. I don’t want to hear that this is a police problem. Our police do a fine job, this is a social/behavioral breakdown of large proportions. Daily, I am treated to a Mom in a mastodon sport utility running a stop sign, not even really slowing down. Just check for a police car, and gun it through the intersection. I see a Dad on his way to the train failing to yield-right-of-way to school children walking to their bus stop. Cars of every variety speed through my residential neighborhood as if they were competing in the Indy 500. I see almost everyone turning without using their turn signals-both an element of safety and courtesy. I see the same cars park in our handicapped and no parking zones as the drivers run to do their errands-thumbing their noses at the purpose of those special zones. As they leave, they back into parked cars, eyeball the crumpled fender and drive off. This transcends rudeness into crimi­ nality. It accelerates on the expressway. Of course, you see all the failures above, only at higher speeds; no turn lights, fail­ ure to yield right-of- way, and speeding. Worse, you see tailgating, weaving in the lanes, passing when inappropriate, driving on the shoulder to get ahead of a line of backed up traffic. You see ag­ gression, hostility and anger.

Some of the behavior seems to be related to the size and power of today’s sport utility mastodons, some of it to an inner rage that is almost sociopathic. Not being a car designer, or a psychiatrist, I don’t have an answer to either of these problems. Personally, I believe this behav­ ior to be related to modern society’s ano­ nymity and social disconnectedness, but it is mainly just selfish rudeness. What we are losing is a sense of safety, because we are absolutely see­ ing unsafe driving, plus a loss of civility, and courtesy. Decency behind the wheel seems to have evaporated. I guess I would ask myself how I would like to run down and kill a small child while speed­ ing, cripple or maim an elderly driver through aggressive tailgating, or ruin a young person’s future before he or she even get their life started. I think we should start looking to ourselves if we want these antisocial behaviors to stop. If we don’t take responsibility, I can’t imagine how bad driving conditions will be in ten years. The book I am -recom­ mending this month, before it is too late for you, is Illinois Rules of the Road. Al­ ways a good read, drop by and read one at the Library. Or, ignore the book and get exposed to it in mandatory traffic safety classes after you get your big ticket. Orville Freeman, former Governor of Minnesota, had a great phrase about driving--”lt’s not a right, it is a privilege”. And there aren’t any excuses.

The circulating business books have now been integrated into the regu­ lar nonfiction collection in call number order. Not only had the business books outgrown their space in the business room, but there was much confusion caused by |5p> books of a similar nature (real estate < • books, for example) being split between different collections. When remodel­ ing is completed there will be more space in the Business Room for the library’s other business collections: reference books, investment ser­ vices, annual reports, and current issues of business journals. The Business Room also provides a quiet and pleasant refuge for investors, job hunters, consumers and local busi­ ness people. Some of the reference books §>!©0idl<sg^ recently added to the Business Room Easter Sunday, April 12 Memorial Day, May 25 include new Chi­ cago directories useful for job hunters or local busi­ nesses: Chicago Area Business Direc­ tory, Chicago JobBank; Sorkins Di­ rectory of Business & GovernmentChicago Edition (\7 vol.) and new special issues of business journals: Business Journal Book of Lists (for Lake County); and Crains Chicago Business Top Business Lists.

Special Services /fr The Youth Services Department not only offers pre-school storytimes, /X but also invites preschool classes for department tours. A librarian will read a \ story, give a tour, or help children learn where to find books they might like. We also will visit preschools to tell stories or promote library programs. As they get older, children take class trips to the library to learn the library's computers, find magazine articles on-line, or find science fair information. Often books on specific school projects, such as Native American Indians, are set aside for use in the library. Visits to schools help us promote our books or reading programs. Tours for scout troops often are held after school. We can offer materials, demonstrations of microfilm machines or computers to fit your needs. As part of our mission to support the community’s lifelong learning goals, we treasure our relationship with the schools and local groups. �Ceases! um l*«ss|»<gs>rfr Library cards expire every 3 years for resi­ dents of incorporated Deerfield. To update your card, you must show some form of i.d. You keep the same card and we update it on the computer for you. If the card is worn, we can replace it. If you cannot find your card at check­ out time, we can check you out with a valid i.d. and a 25 cent fee, or we can hold the item (non video) for a few days until you return with your library card. Asking for identification in both of the above cases is done for your own safety. You must register for your own library card, not someone elses. The only exception is a juvenile (under 18) whose parent must register or update, showing i.d., for them. We punch a hole on juvenile library cards to show that the holder is under 18 years and cannot rent videos. Treat your library card as you would a passport! If you are a Deerfield resident and tempo­ rarily or permanently unable to come to the library because of illness, injury or disabil­ ity, we can deliver mate­ rials to your home. Sim- ^ ply call the library and ask for Karen Kleckner. She, or her staff, will contact you to find out what materials you want and select materials or locate specific requests.

Focus on Youth Services Department Now that the finishing touches are being put on the main floor renovation, architect Scott Javore, the board and the staff are setting sights on renovation of the Youth Services Department. Newly appointed department head Chris Kopeck said, “I am very excited about the upcoming renovation. We are planning to keep the department child friendly, but also make it more inviting for young adult patrons. We plan to separate the young adult fiction and will be adding a study carrel and window seats. We will be increasing shelf space in both the picture book room and the juvenile area. New carpeting and bright colors will highlight the room. We will also be doubling the number of display cases. The department will remain open during renovation, offering the same quality service, and we want to thank patrons in advance for their patience.” Chris Kopeck was selected from among several candidates for the position of Head of the Youth Services Department. She holds her Master’s Degree in Library Science from University of Illinois and worked in a public library in Orlando, Florida prior to being hired as a children’s librarian in Deerfield a year ago. “Over the past year, the community has made me feel wel­ come” she said, “and I look forward to serving them in this new capacity. If you have comments or suggestions about improving service, please talk to me or put a note in the suggestion box at the front desk.” Librarian in the Lobby 9 - noon, 2nd Saturdays, September 12, October 10, November 14.

There will be much activity in the Youth Services Department this summer. The summer read­ ing club, Time Trek Readers and numerous activities (see page three) will be humming along during major department renovation. At least one portion of the area will be kept open to patrons at all times and, when necessary, programs will be held in the upstairs meeting room. Donald F. Wrobleski of DF Wrobleski Architects will be principal architect for the renovation. Wrobleski was architect of the remodeled Fiction Room, and he will be extending the 20th century modernist classic design and palette of light and materials of the Fiction Room into the Youth Services area while specifics will be different. New carpet and furniture, more win­ dows and angled (faux) sky­ light should brighten the room without structural work. Stack space for books will increase by 1/3. “The idea is to make it more comfortable, efficient and organized” said Wrobleski. The project should be completed by fall.

Library News North Suburban Library System (NSLS) Director Sarah Long, Riverwoods attorney Bruce Huvard, Deerfield Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks, NSLS president Robert B. Lyons. At the North Suburban Library System Annual Banquet, Library Advocate Awards were presented to Jack Hicks, Bruce Huvard and William Seiden (Library Board Treasurer) for establishing a private library corporation in Riverwoods, giving residents with no library service the opportunity to obtain access to full library services at the Deerfield Public Library. �Across the Librarian’s Desk I n 1968 a friend of mine, Rowland Higgins, who now teaches mathe­ matics at Cambridge, England, wrote a letter to the London Times suggesting that all Olympic competitors—from all nations—march and compete in identical white uniforms. This view was not dri­ ven by post-modern nostalgia but by a genuine fear that amateur sport was becoming far too politicized and profes­ sional. The letter was printed in the crank file. How prescient Rowland was. The Olympics truly did descend to perilous political depths as Iron Curtain countries and western democracies struggled with each other for political dominance. The result was every imaginable attempt to subvert the spirit of the Olympic Creed and the rules of fair competition as state run machines immersed themselves in blood doping, drugs, surgeries, gender ambivalence, ruthless competition, bro­ ken lives- making the Olympics a sham. The end of the Cold War did not end the abuses, merely transferred them to the commercial arena. The day 30 year old, hardened, professional basketball players suited up as the “dream team” was a low spot for amateur athletics. The charm, naivete, innocence and the purity of ama­ teur youth was replaced with professional greed—and not just on the part of the athletes. The warning signs were there but we chose to ignore them in our lust for gold medals. What a descent from 1936 when Eleanor Holm Janett was dis­ missed from the Olympic swimming team for drinking champagne on the boat to Europe. Perhaps there is no value in innocence, amateurism, or honesty any longer. Corporate giants around the world turned the Olympics into a bottom feeder’s food frenzy. Logos, sponsorship, glamour and hype attached themselves permanently to the Olympics at America’s 1984 Los Angeles gala and provided a fatal poison. continued on back page Adult Programs Programs arefree but reservations are requested Beethoven at Ravinia Wednesday, June 23, 7 p.m. Dr. Brennetta Simpson, 4^ Assistant Dean & Director of l Undergraduate ^ Studies at / Northwestern University School of Music discusses Beethoven.

In the April 13 Deerfield consolidated election, three Deerfield Library board members were each elected to six year terms. John Anderson and Yvonne Sharpe were re-elected to the Board and Sunday G. Mueller won the third open position. Mr. Anderson has been an active library board member for 22 years; Mrs. Sharpe, for seven years. Mrs. Mueller, mother of four, is an avid library user who is active in the schools and American Association of University Women. Across the Librarian’s Desk continuedfrom page 2 Many of these sports companies exploit vir­ tual slave labor in Third World countries; since that is unpalatable we avert our gaze. Instead of a once-in-a-lifetime experience for wide-eyed young athletes, jaded profes­ sionals now make a living out of being full­ time Olympians, appearing at Olympics after Olympics until they are too creaky to make a go of it, effectively denying youth and innocence a chance. The other extreme is twelve year old gymnasts with severe overuse injuries, and anorexia, from too many hours on the bars. Shame, shame, on all of us. Sunday/Holiday Closings Closed: Sundays beginning June 13 through September 5. On Sunday, July 4 we will be serving lemonade for Family Days.

We all know the benefits of a burgeoning economy, but—and this is a big but—there are places where greed, money, bribes and corruption do not belong. They do not belong in any way, shape, or form with the Olympics. Coiporate power has no place in amateur competition. Proof of this point is the irony that the last great moment in sports for the U.S.A. was the completely amateur team that won the Editor: Sally Seifert The disgrace now brought to the Olympics by the Salt Lake City bribery scandals reveals a worldwide free-fall from ethics and standards. It seems now, in the aftermath, that everyone involved either takes bribes, pays bribes, looks the other way, or just doesn’t care. Bribery and corruption are, of course, a way of life in all too many coun­ tries. The whole point of the Olympics was designed to prove that honest, fair, competi­ tion in sport, could be a starting point for honest, fair dealings between nations. What the Olympics has become is a mirror of our­ selves, nationalistic, grasping, greedy—a charade, not a pretty picture. Perhaps the Olympic motto of Higher, Faster, Farther should be replaced with “just get it.” Is it too late to try Rowland’s idea of white suits? Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian You Deserve the Best, and so do all our other borrowers: Would you believe? We send out $100 in postage weekly for overdue notices (it used to be $15 a week). Damaged library materials number into the thousands per year. Water damaged books start a major deterioration process. When cassettes are left in the sun in a hot car, tapes melt. A dog chewed comer shortens the life of a book as pages break down. Sometimes we get books that have taken a bath along with their borrowers...not good! Patrons must pay for damages plus a processing fee. Could everybody please be more careful with library materials?

Those words have a special resonance for me. This month marks the end of almost eight years of remodeling and renovating the library. The intimacy I have had with this building in those years has indeed shaped me. I would like to think the building is now in as good a shape as it was when I first came to work here twentyeight years ago. All departments have been renovated, the ADA code has been addressed, a new elevator has been added, and new boiler system has been installed. On December 12, we will rededi­ cate our refurbished Youth Services room, named in memory of Dr. Diego Redondo. In many ways the past few years have been like playing an extended game of Snakes and Ladders or an object lesson in the herding of cats. Anyone who has ever supervised a home remodel­ ing project will understand exact­ ly what I mean. I am now on a first name basis with electricians, plumbers, painters, carpenters, continued on back page Year of Renewal This is Deerfield Library’s official theme for the year 2000.

It has been my privilege to work with four gifted and talented architects: Cecil Gobeaux, Don Wrobleski, Karl Sugihara and Scott Javore. A special thanks to interior designer Juele Blankenburg. It has been an interesting odyssey. The library staff and Board could not have been more helpful or supportive. The foresight of Mayor Forrest and the Village Trustees made all of our renovations possible. These projects were carried out with the use of Tax Increment Financing and did not cost the taxpayer any money. The library incurred no debt—and no new taxes. Two remarks stand out in my memory that shaped the mind-set of the entire project. They stand out because of their easy wisdom. The first was from our former Board President, Tom Parfitt, when our ADA building audit had been done by O’Donnell, Wickland, Pigozzi and Peterson. We needed to change and alter many things in our building to be ADA compliant; frankly this would cost a lot of money and dis­ turbed everyone on the board. We named our Fiction Room for Tom because of what he said that night, “This is not a set back, this is an opportunity.” The second came when we were in the design throes of the lobby renovation and the architect was describing how a double-hung door (which we now have) fully complied with ADA because of the low pressure needed to open it. Yvonne Sharpe got right to the point by asking. “What if the patron doesn’t have any hands?” So we added an automatic door, too. I believe those two insights defined everything we Deerfield Public Library 920 Waukegan Road Deerfield, Illinois 60015 Deerfield Public Library Jack Hicks, Administrative Librarian Library Board Sue Benn, President David Wolff, Secretary William Seiden, Treasurer Ken Abosch Jack Anderson Sunday Mueller Yvonne Sharpe Library Hours Mon.-Thurs: 9:00 am - 9:00 pm 9:00 am - 6:00 pm Friday: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm Saturday: 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm Sunday: Editor: Sally Seifert have done in the past eight years. Do the thing right, in spirit as well as statute. Not the cheap­ est, not the most expensive, we chose the right way throughout the whole project. Bill Seiden always kids me about the six Family Day Parade 1st prizes I have in my office. I am proud of them because they make it clear how this library relates to and reflects the community and residents. This library is part of the community. We help kids learn to read, do story hours, provide fiction books, answer refer­ ence questions, teach research skills, help plan science fair experiments, teach the Internet and do puppet shows. We supply all our Deerfield residents with their reading needs and informa­ tion needs and provide lifetime learning. So, as Winston Churchill said, we shape our buildings and thereafter they shape us. The bricks and mortar period is over. Now the hard part begins—planning for the future. The Board and staff will not waver from that responsibility. It will take hard work and courage to develop a vision for the future. Technology, remote access, fiber optic networks, distance learning, and computers will shape our future. To have a vision and plan in place will take study. The revitalized Youth Services Department reflects our commitment to the young people of Deerfield—our future—and the room makes some promises. It promises chal­ lenge and reward, service and wisdom, comfort and warmth. Most of all, I pledge that it promis­ es an entrance to the future for all our children. *3 — Wck Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian Non Profit Org.

The issue is a lot more involved than the wrong animal in the wrong place at the wrong time, or the sanctity of the life of a single deer; it reaches into the deepest recesses of our ecological system and our con­ science. The problem is more complicated than either side of the protagonists seem to grasp or admit. The shooters’ solution is both cruel and simplistic because it does nothing to permanently change the ecosystem—the deer will simply return. The anthropo­ morphism of these deer is proba­ bly an even greater sin because these animals are not little people running around in furs and they deserve an environmentally sounder and a much more digni­ fied defense. I understand and sympathize with both sides of the quandary. Everyone agrees that this is one of the most beautiful animals on earth; but it is felt to be a menace to safety, health and gardens by one faction and the living incar­ nation of wild nature by the continued on back page YEAR OF RENEWAL FUN! d Library Week, Open Mouse 2-4 pm, Sunday, April 9.

As a person who has been treated for Lyme disease, I get a bit fearful because the disease con­ cern is seldom even mentioned. What absolutely stuns me is the level of emotional froth both sides can chum up when there is a far greater travesty right in the middle of the controversy; in fact, a river runs through it. The Des Plaines River. If you don’t know the Des Plaines, a one day paddle by canoe from north of Libeityville to Deerfield Road will delight and amaze you; or try any of the extensive trails. One hundred years ago a kid could swim and fish in that river. It was a pristine, crystal clear stream; home to beaver, otter, mink, pike. Eels, who were born in the Sargasso Sea, migrated there to spend their summers. Deer, bear, cari­ bou, elk, badgers, wolverines and most likely buffalo once roamed its shores. Many older Deerfield residents still reminisce about the old Des Plaines swimming hole. It is a river of sub­ lime physical beauty—lyrical really—reduced in stature by the level of junk we allow to be pumped, dumped, or drained into it. Starting in our backyards it flows all the way to the Gulf of Mexico trailing our debris. The river is now home only to the bottom feeding, lowly and shunned, carp. If we are concerned about the deer, we should be mortified by the water quali­ ty of this beautiful river. I know that everything pumped, dumped, or oozed into the river meets or exceeds all the EPA standards; but the cumulative effect is something of which we should all be ashamed. I would suggest that in the first decade of the 21st century there is absolutely no reason or excuse to put anything into our rivers and streams. We must do better. Fifty years since the publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring we seem to have changed little and learned less—showing the same passion for the life of this river as we show for the life of one deer would be a starting point. Surely the river deserves life as much as any single creature—more, because it touches upon thousands and thousands of lives. Ryerson Nature Preserve is one of this region’s most wonderful treasures, well main­ tained, scenic, a step back into another era. A perfect counterpoint for me to the digital age. To walk on Ryerson’s paths is a privilege I recom­ mend to everyone. But I always come back to the river. Sitting by the little falls at the dam in a drifting snowstorm transports you to silent forests and distant vistas. The pungent odor of chemicals always spoils my reverie and brings me back to reality. Is this the legacy we leave our children? In the optimism of the new millen­ nium and the digital age can’t we find a solution to clean water so that voyageurs of a future age can share the experiences with the voyageurs of the past? I challenge any doubter to take my infallible Des Plaines River test. Go to the dam in Ryerson, fill a 12 ounce glass with the water spilling over the edge and drink it. If you can’t do it, tell me why. The book I am recommending this month is Annie Proulx’s Close Range about life on the harsh plains of Wyoming.
