The birds, for example where had they gone? Many people spoke of them, puzzled and disturbed. The feeding stations in the backyards were deserted. The few birds seen any­ where were moribund; they trem­ bled violently and could not fly. It was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens, and scores of other bird voices there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh. So began opening passages in Rachel Carson’s 1962 classic, cautionary, tale Silent Spring. The message of that book was immediate and lasting: what man does to alter his environment can sow the seeds of a terrible harvest. That book detailed the inexorability, precision, and terrible lasting price of unintended consequences. Those lines were recalled to me late this summer when my neighbors and I realized that the chorus of birds our neighborhood had always enjoyed was silent. Gone were the sparrows, the crows, the blue jays and robins, gone were almost all the birds except ones passing through. No longer was I awakened to the raucous caws of a family of crows that frequented my backyard, no more brazen blue jays. In fact no birds at all. The cause is, of course, the West Nile Virus. Illinois leads the nation in human cases of the illness and in the number of deaths attributed to it. For reasons seemingly unknown to sci­ ence, Illinois is the epicenter of this new and baffling illness and the first to fall are our friends the birds. As Rachel Carson had so accurately predicted, the birds acted as the barometer of the health of the environ­ ment. Well-meaning voices have been raised to resurrect the use of DDT—one of the most dangerous and persistent poisons ever devised by man—as a possible cure. One can only ponder if the old vaudeville punch line wouldn’t literally be true: the proposed cure being worse than the disease. I have watched through late summer and now into fall for a return of the birds to my yard. A few have come, but are quickly gone, and no crow caws for my arising. Over the years hundreds and hundreds of sparrows have called my backyard home and my birdfeeder their Sunset Foods. I have housed, fed, and nurtured a sprawling family of sparrows in my yard for twenty-five years. This spring there were brood after brood of new hatchlings in that birdhouse—the insistent peeping announcing a new brood and the exit of the fledglings. Recently, I started to clean out my bird houses as I do every fall—so that next year’s birds will have a clean start on their child rearing. The wren house was empty, the second general purpose house always cherished by starlings was too. But the home place for my sparrows brought upset. Amidst all the string, and feathers, and sticks, and fluff there were the little abandoned nests—forlorn in their vacancy. The final nest brought sorrow. In it were three tiny shriveled, mummified, sparrow nestlings and three unhatched eggs. The birds I carefully buried in my flower garden along with two cracked eggs. The third egg, perfect, speckled in mot­ tled gray, white and brown. I put it in a finch’s nest I had brought home from a backpacking trip of forty years ago. I don’t know why. This seems like a fall to reflect on unintended conse­ quences and the price to be paid for our folly, hubris, or ignorance. Those little dead birds broke my heart. I had not had the good sense to realize that West Nile could strike so quickly as to kill the parents in mid-flight. The victims of our stupidity are always the tiny, the power­ less, the innocent. The solutions I will leave to better minds. But as Rachel Carson warned—it is always a dis­ aster to rush headlong to conclusions, to push for solu­ tions that may destroy more than they save, or to trust loud voices more than good sense. Too many lessons, it seems, get forgotten.

Number A A Vision for the Library by Don Van Arsdale, Deeifield Library Trustee, Chair of the Long Range Planning Committee (and Director of the Winnetka Community House) D aniel Burnham said “make no small plans as they have no power to fire men’s souls”. Due in part to Mr. Burnham’s foresight and vision, we enjoy Chicago as one of the truly great cites in the world. Ten years ago, the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees and staff created a Master Plan for the library. Using community input, this process resulted in a plan which improved the library facility in many significant ways. Some of these improvements include: the opening up and renovation of the lower level resulting in the Tom Parfitt Adult Fiction Room, the installation of a public elevator, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements, renovation of the children’s reading room, instal­ lation of a new computer system, remodeling of the front lobby and the purchase of new materials. continued on page 2 Board President Sue Benn Retires We are grateful to Sue Benn who has served on the Deerfield Library Board of Trustees for 27 years and as president for the past twelve of those years. In April she will step down from her post. Originally appointed to the Board, she became interested in the library while working on book sales with the Library Friends Group. Subsequently, she ran for office and won four elections, each requiring six year terms. She has particularly enjoyed the board work because of the variety of personalities and friends she’s made along the way. . " «r- ^ ■v .j 1 ' I t * / . Sue Benn She has observed many changes in the Village since moving here in 1955 and raising her three children in Deerfield. “Life was simpler then,” she said “yet there has been continuity in the library. It’s like raising a child; you don’t notice the growth because you are so close to it.” She has overseen a new roof, boiler system, major building renovation, ongoing computer tech­ nology, policy changes and the challenge of making best use of available space. Her fondest accomplishment has been hiring and supporting Jack Hicks as administrative librarian. “Jack has hired an excellent staff, main­ tains contact with the Village, the library profession, computers and a myri­ ad of details.” Having worked so closely with staff and board on so many projects she feels she is leaving a family. She modestly says of her years on the board— “I got more than I gave.” An active community member, Sue was elected 2002 “Volunteer of the Year” at the Chicago Botanic Garden, and has many interests. She and her husband Walt particularly enjoy trips to visit her children. She plans to keep a close eye on the library’s future and to continue visiting almost daily as she does now. (She might even volunteer again for the “sticky job” of. lemonade service in the library which she has done every year for July 4th Family Day). On April 1 the Village will hold an election for a total of three openings on the library board. �Adult Programs Programs are free but reservations are requested.

Once again, we are looking to our residents for input on how the library can serve your needs in the future. We want to solicit your ideas about our services, materials, hours, staff, programs, and facilities. Your thoughts and opinions are essential to the success of our plan. If you are contacted by POL, please take the 5-10 minutes to complete the telephone survey. If you are con­ tacted to participate in a focus group, please consider say­ ing yes. We have contracted with the Public Opinion Laboratory (POL) of Northern Illinois University to conduct a telephone survey. Additionally, POL will conduct a series of focus groups where we will delve into the information gleaned from the telephone survey. We will listen and consider the results of these conversations as we begin planning and visioning the future of the Deerfield Public Library. The library services are here for your enjoyment. We know you want this to be an excellent community resource. We want to position this library to meet the needs of current and future patrons. Like Daniel Burhnam, we understand that to prepare for the future, you must plan for the future. Shelving in the “West Wing" main floor of the library has been remodeled for videos, DVD's, CD's and audio books. Now there is space to grow and to increase our collections. If you have any trouble locating materials, please ask a reference librarian for assistance. 7th Annual Rosemary Sazonoff Creative Writing Event For adults, the “contest” was a little different this year and very special.

In short, it is Federal legislation enacted shortly after the 9-11 catastrophe that allows the government—the FBI—to look at library patrons’ record files, Internet access records, and any other record the Library keeps on its users or rou­ tine internal files used to operate the Library. This can be done without ben­ efit of traditional due process proce­ dures and carries extreme penalties to the Librarian for non-compliance, quick punishment if information about this governmental access is revealed— to anyone. The genesis of this Act stems from the idea that the 9-11 ter­ rorists used libraries as a base for their communication activities. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis said ‘The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in the insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning but without understanding.” Libraries have tradi­ tionally been strongholds of the Constitution’s guarantee of freedom of speech, the right to privacy, and the freedom of inquiry. Patron privacy and confidentiality have always been guiding continued on page 2 °°3 lri% Summer Reading Programs: “Lights, Camera, Read” June 16 to August 8 Adults: Movie stars aren’t the only ones reading scripts this summer.

One wonders if to have privacy we will have to encrypt everything principles for libraries. Post 9-111 can’t say that is totally true—as all the rules apparent­ we do, every file we keep, every computer disk. That is of cold com­ fort to anyone, as the U.S. government owns and operates the ly have changed. The Patriot Act is seen by world’s most advanced, largest, and most efficient code-breaking some as reasonable surveillance and by oth­ ers as an unwarranted intrusion into our citi­ and cryptanalysis center—the NSA. So encryption would be a use­ less enterprise. The fact that our patrons’ records erase when the zen’s privacy. The Library is truly stuck materials are returned, or that our Internet records track only the user between a rock and a hard place. Has the Library ever been approached by the govern­ name and the time does not ensure privacy. I am dead-sure that the computer geeks employed by the government can resuscitate the trail ment for the review of a resident’s files? I am not at liberty to tell of any such record in their entirety and amplify the traces of any you that information. internet foray or e-mail no matter how long they have been erased. Some libraries have posted large signs warning their clients of this legislation. I have been asked why I have not put up disclaimer signs like this informing our residents that their library records might be reviewed by the government without notice. The answer is sim­ ple: if I put up warning signs I would compromise even more the public’s reasonable expectation of privacy by warning them that in the library, privacy does not exist. Signs cancel any vestige of privacy. The Library has always followed, and will continue to follow the Illinois Compiled Statutes—provision 75ILCS 70/1-2—‘The Library Records Confidentiality Act”— which deals directly with the explicit right of all citizens to have their library records held in con­ fidence, but frankly that law is preempted and powerless in regard to the Patriot Act. I will take every measure in my power to ensure each resident’s right to privacy and confidentiality—but I am duty and honor bound to fully comply with the spirit and the letter of the Federal law. In the electronic age we are living at our most public. Everything we do is transmitted or recorded electronically, our paychecks are wire Graphic Artist Betty Reschke: In Memoriam On April 23,2003 the Deerfield Library staff lost a dear friend, who this year cele­ brated 34 years as a library employee. When our California-born graphic artist Betty was first employed the library was located in what is now the West Deerfield Township Office. In the present building her artistic flair blossomed in a “behind the scenes” I have no problem with the concepts surrounding national security. Surely, only a fool would think that we are not all vulnerable to internal terrorist acts and that these acts do not pose a serious, palpable reality. It is impossible for us to consider these issues wholly within the framework of the old ideas we held near and dear before the tragedy of 9-11.1 guess what bothers me about the Patriot Act is not that libraries have been thrust into the middle of a debate not of their making where they had no input, nor the lack of traditional due process, nor the invasion of privacy, nor the implied violation of hard won and cherished First Amendment rights. What does trouble me is that the Patriot Act can easily be seen as an insidious encroachment, first-step, beginning of an omni­ scient government. I certainly question the need for that step in a Constitutional Democracy. I am afraid, after all, that “the fault dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves”. Jack Alan Hicks workroom. She sewed hundreds of original puppets for the library’s puppet theater, pre­ pared posters for our programs using an ancient printing press, built large structures such as the 4th of July bookworm, a bam, a mural, exhibits and displays and fashioned countless creative projects. She responded immediately to our often last-minute requests. When she took ill several months ago she was re-sewing, for the umpteenth time, the cloth furniture and inhabitants of the little tree house (dollhouse) that has been a fixture in the Childrens’ department for decades. Betty had a multitude of interests including golf, swimming, jazz (especially at Ravinia), nature, the Southwest, and her Michigan summer retreat. Her many talents and cheerful smile will be greatly missed by the library staff and the public who so admired her hard work. In a 1997 Deerfield Review article celebrating the library’s 70th anniversary, Betty’s photo was featured and she modestly responded about her long tenure at the library “It’s just an enjoyable way to pass the time!” Betty lived in Highland Park and leaves two daughters. Her husband passed away several years ago. Youth Services’ Cindy Schilling holds the new puppets made by Betty this year. Cindy, a 13 year library employee, has just recently received her Masters in Library Science and we are proud of her! �prom Sunday Mueller, Newly Elected Library Board President What ayear ahead on the library board! 0„e of the challenges and greatest responsibilities of a board is long range planning, taking that long, hard look into the future and developing a vision as well as the plan to achieve it. Your library board is in full gear in this endeavor. We have been pleased to see the telephone survey results of over 1,000 area residents. Your thoughts and suggestions are helping us identify the issues to be explored in the 15 focus groups to be held this summer. If you can participate in one of these groups, please do. Our job as board members is to represent you, the community and all its diverse components, to our library. When considering changes to its operation, we strive to keep in mind all our constituencies and tty' to balance the needs of each group. Fortunately, the members of our board directly rep­ resent most of these groups and we are all frequent users of the library’s materials and facilities. Our efforts are easily a “labor of love”. I am pleased to serve as the incoming president and have several goals for the year ahead. Chief among them is reaching out to those of you who visit the library less frequently. I hope we can familiarize you with the wonderful services avail­ able there, including the services of our very peo­ ple friendly reference librarians. They stand ready and eager to help you find answers to your ques­ tions, to show you some of our amazing reference materials, and to help you search the ‘Net quickly and effectively.

The Library’s Punch and Judy Players will celebrate their 30th birthday with a performance of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic —Treasure Island - an exciting tale of pirates Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. (space limited, register early!) For all ages! The Library’s puppet theater was built in 1973 by Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks and was intended to last no longer than two or three years. That first year the theater was featured as the Library’s float in the Fourth of July Family Days Parade and was the focus of a summer long puppet workshop for sixth graders in the Youth Services Department. What grew out of a $400 gift from the Deerfield Newcomers Club in 1973 has 'M .1 now lasted 30 years and entertained thousands of children and their parents. Thanks r t v Newcomers. That first year saw the beginning of a repertoire puppet company—The Punch and Judy Players—which over the years has staged hundreds of performances. The plays remain the old standards—Sleeping Beauty, Treasure Island, Rumplestiltskin, Puss in Boots, Beauty and the Beast, St. George and the Dragon, Pecos Bill, Frog and Toad, Anansi the Spider, Three Billy Goats Gruff, as well as some written by Library staff—Dinosaurs in Deerfield and Masters of the Hidden Planet. The Punch and Judy Players themselves come from all the Departments in the Library— Jack Hicks and Sally Brickman, fy? Administration; Chris Kopeck and Cindy Schilling from Youth Services; Judy Hortin from Reference Services; Sidney Barnes, Circulation; and many others over the past 30 years. Our puppets were all designed and hand sewn by our Staff Artist, Betty Reschke. One of our greatest rewards comes when young parents relate to us that they saw a perfor­ mance at the Library when they were young and they have now brought their children to see Punch and Judy. Some people have asked why we still do puppet plays in the age of video and computer games. Simply because puppets are a counterpoint to Hollywood and TV. You do not need computers, play stations, Dolby, Panavision, Rambo, Power Rangers or Bat Man to entertain children and they get a full and steady dose of that kind of electronic entertainment elsewhere. We are convinced that puppetry reflects literature, encourages children to read, and makes the books they have read come alive to them. The puppets are in a child’s scale, they are a live performance, they stimulate imagination, and they are not seen elsewhere with any regularity. So, we invite one and all to celebrate 30 years with us as we perform an old favorite—Treasure Island. �Adult Programs Programs are free but reservations are requested.

The POL’s random telephone survey of 1,003 library users found that the library is serv­ ing the community well, with a great deal of satisfaction regarding current hours of operation and high positive ratings. “86% of library users rate Deerfield Library as “excellent, or very good”. Highest ratings went to a “helpful/knowledgeable staff’. A very large 85% of respondents were library cardholders and 73% of respondents had visited the library in the past 12 months. How do people use the library? Five main reasons include: recreational fiction and non­ fiction reading, borrowing videos, utilizing materials and programs, and using the library reference materials. The survey also showed that the majority of residents, regardless of length of residency in the community, responded favorably to expansion and most preferred expansion at the present location. A space needs study last spring by Anders Dahlgren of Library Planning Associates found that the library (currently at 31,162 square feet and fully used), should be 38,600 to 54,000 square feet just to meet the current needs to accom­ modate a growing print and non print collection as well as to meet the needs for reader seats, offices, library programs and story time rooms. Unfortunately vertical expansion in the present location is complicated and difficult as the building’s roof is not stressed for the load. During the summer the POL conducted twelve focus groups for staff, village officials, kids, parents, seniors, non users, younger childless residents and Riverwoods/ Bannockburn residents. All of the information culled from the survey and focus groups will become part of a long range plan to be developed by the library board. A long range planning committee of the board has already devoted many hours to preparing a documented plan/vision for the library which will best serve its thousands of users. The survey showed that patrons see the library’s role as a cultural and intellectual community center of the village with something to offer everyone; this will be taken into consideration in future planning. Reference copies of the completed space needs and community survey reports are avail­ able to the public at the Library’s Reference Desk. This online subscription database is avail­ able to all, free of charge, on computers in the Deerfield Library’s Reference Department. It is also accessible to Deerfield Library cardholders at home or work via the library’s website, www.deerfieldlibrary.org (Then click Online Databases, then Infotrac and be ready to enter your Deerfield library card number when asked). A useful tool for investors, business people, consumers and students, the Business & Company Resource Center database includes: magazine, journal, & newspaper articles (many full-text); indus­ try overviews & rankings; and a broad range of company information including financials & reports. In addition to the many periodicals indexed in full- text arti­ cles, other database sources include: American Wholesalers and Distributors Directory, Brands and Their Companies, Business Rankings Annual, Encyclopedia of Associations and more. For additional information and assistance please contact a reference librarian.

Ruth was barnstorming across the country with cronies and stopped, for reasons unknown, in my Uncle’s hometown of Rockwell City, Iowa. He wanted to play golf and asked for the top golfer in town as a partner. That was my Uncle, then a teenager, Alan Voss. Aside from family photos and memories and faded “Rockwell City Advocate” newspaper clippings, that minor piece of Rockwell City history is lost forever in the vast series of events that happen in towns small and large across our country. Oh, yes, Alan won the golf match. My Mother always said the Babe was driving a “big, open, yellow touring car” himself. Such oral history and family stories enrich our past and have much to tell us today. These stories tell us where we came from and who we are. Unfortunately, this kind of history seldom gets written down and then is lost forever. Everybody has a story to tell and we want to collect and print those stories that relate to Deerfield. When all these stories are 4 continued on page 2 °lun>e\ 19, “umbe' ^ ' • j/t Long Range Plan Continues to Develop By Sunday Mueller, Board President Over the last year the Library Board of Trustees has been hard at work in developing a long range plan for the Deerfield Library. When it is finalized, the board will release its written plan to stand as a blueprint for the future. Key components of the plan will include both the library’s operations and facilities. Public Opinion Laboratories (POL) of Northern Illinois University conducted a telephone survey this past spring, completing 1,000 interviews with Deerfield, Bannockburn and Riverwoods residents. Many of the respondents especially valued the library’s accessible location and Children’s Department. The Adult Fiction Room received high marks and there was a stated desire to enhance the audiovisual and non­ fiction holdings. Other respondents indicated use of multiple libraries, and the data was helpful in providing insights about the reasons for that use. Hoping to gather in depth opinions about the library, the Board commissioned POL to conduct focus groups. Twelve focus groups were held over the summer with ten different subgroups of residents. Grouping the participants allowed the moderator to explore issues of special interest to that particular group. As one might expect, the opinions from these groups were varied but common themes were identified. Since the library’s current physical space is fully utilized, we hired Anders Dahlgren of Library Planning Associates, Inc. to assess the current space needs of the library. Using more conventional space allocations (wider aisles, lower shelving) as well as the proper amount of seating space, it would take a building about 50% larger just to house our current holdings and services. Dahlgren is now working on an estimate of long range space needs based on projected holdings, program of services, new services and overall projected growth for the next 25 years. As we continue this process, there will be more information needed and many options examined. As you can guess, the board has spent many hours on this project and knows there are many more ahead. The board is totally committed to creating a vision that best meets the needs of current and future library users — using the interviews, focus groups and space needs study as a source of direction. We will share this vision as it unfolds in ftiture issues of Browsing. Want to be “in the know” about what’s going on in the world?

You are Welcome to Attend, 2pm, Sunday, March 21. The Unveiling of the Lars-Birger Sponberg Painting A resident of Deerfield for over 50 years, artist Lars-Birger Sponberg has painted a Midwest landscape that is gracing the wall above our Circulation Desk, the first thing you see as you enter the library. Sponberg’s career spans nine decades, and his work has been shown in solo exhibits and group shows in the Chicago area, Sweden and New York and can be found in numerous private and corporate collections. Most recently he has painted “Midwest landscapes” as seen from the road­ side. They invite the viewer to enter into the rural landscape on intimate terms. The library’s painting, McHeniy County, according to Sponberg “was in my mind for quite some time. Basically it is a real scene (near Richmond, IL) but I’ve changed and added and done what artists do.” His intention was to make a good painting, and the scenery is secondary. Lars-Birger Sponberg works on our library painting in his Deerfield home. Deerfield’s Peter Nye and the Chicago Blue Grass Band Deerfield’s Peter Nye and the Chicago Blue Grass Band will entertain at the March 21 event with “slamming traditional bluegrass music with a big city wallop”. This internation­ ally acclaimed group, a favorite at the Old Town School of Music, will focus on the heart­ land. (See Adult Programs) Refreshments for the afternoon will be donated by Deerfield’s Whole Foods Market. We love Deerfield and want the library to be important to the community. A focus on Deerfield is our library’s overriding spring theme. As you look through our newsletter, you will see that we are highlighting our community, its citizens and its talents.

We would like to share with the community our work in progress. Our goal is to plan for the library to continue to be a source of pride to Deerfield. The current library was built in 1969 to house 61,500 items in 32,500 square feet. Today that same space houses 180,000 volumes. At that time the library employed 14 staff. Today we employ 46 staff mem­ bers. We have added music, video and audio collections. There were no comput­ erized catalogs, Internet and no cabling for a computer network. There was no separate fiction room. Since 1992, the library has expanded facilities and services within the limitations of the present building. We have reached our space limit and cannot adapt newer technologies or new services to our existing structure. Our vision statement: The Deerfield Public Library is an educational resource, cultural center, community gathering place, and a gateway to technology. The library will promote lifetime learning. We will offer all the programs, materials, and ser­ vices necessary to participate in the world of ideas and provide our patrons with the tools to succeed in the future. O Steps the board and staff have completed: • Formation of a long-range planning committee • Review of previous long term planning committee reports • Review of several years of suggestions from Librarian in the Lobby • Seminar to identify core values • Salary Survey • Demographic Study • Commissioned and reviewed Space Utilization survey by nationally recognized library consultant Anders Dahlgren • Prepared technology assessment and plan • Public Opinion Laboratory of Northern Illinois University designed and carried out phone survey of over 1000 area res­ idents and conducted twelve focus groups • Conducted a needs assessment based on all of the above • Anders Dahlgren prepared a detailed strategic facilities plan, assessment of library service goals, service delivery options and space needs. He recom­ mended the need for an 80,979 squarefoot facility with an optimum of 86,583 square feet. The Identified space needs (*n no special order): • Drive-up book drop • Room to expand collection • Expanded audio visual department. • Expanded and well organized audio book area • Easier access to all materials: 4- foot aisles and appropriately sized shelving (no higher than 6 feet and lowest shelf 2 feet off floor) • More tables, carrels, casual seating and available quiet space. • Additional parking • Self check-out technology and automat­ ed book routing and materials control • Information desk at library entrance • Study rooms • Theater/auditorium Larger public computer access area Community meeting space Copier and word processing center Technology training area Suitable office and technical space for staff Young adult room Local history area Arts and crafts program area for children • Exhibit space for art and cultural exhibits • Refreshment area I it 5 Service Needs: • Extended hours • Wireless computer access for patrons • Interactive learning centers • Expanded and more easily accessible audio visual material • More programs for all ages • Facilities and equipment for regular movie nights, concerts and theater presentations Additional Staff Needs: • Staff to cover extended hours • Information technology management specialist • Technical assistant for library computer users • Audio visual area personnel • Staff for information desk • Graphic artist • School outreach coordinator • Community outreach coordinator Steps to be completed: • Create staff service goals and objec­ tives. • Hire architect for structural study of current building to examine feasibility of expanding current building on present site. • Review building consultant report. The results will determine whether to 1) build up, 2) build a new library, 3) build on this site, or 4) find a new site. • Identify and hire an architect to work with Mr. Dahlgren, board and staff to write a building program with specifics. • Hire an expert in funding development for library building projects to explore financing. Possibilities might include formation of a district library, private donations, and fund raising. • With expert and community involve­ ment, develop a specific plan for a capital project and implement financing recommendations. • Implement building plan. • Design, acquire, and place library fixtures. •si 1| i I* . �Drop-In Events & Activities Lucky Shamrocks March 1-31 Put your wish on a lucky shamrock and we’ll hang it up for the leprechauns to find! ■ Reference Librarian John Keisey offers a program on job searching on the Internet at the Village of Deerfield’s Job Seekers Workshop 8:30am Saturday, March 13. ■ Note the new Catalog Quick Search “button” on our home page, www.deerfieldiibrary.org.

Pickens with the unveiling of a plaque in his honor outside at the west end of the Library, as part of the Deerfield Memorial Day ceremonies. Ensign Pickens had been training as an aircraft carrier pilot at Naval Air Station in Glenview where, sadly, a number of pilots were killed during their training. The library has always known there had been a plane crash on its property. Recently, through diligent research by librarian Cindy Wargo, we have learned that it was a U.S. Navy F4F Wildcat whose pilot, Ensign Milton C. Pickens of Houston, Texas crashed and perished. Ensign Pickens, 20, won his Navy wings in December, 1943 and married Dorothy Prindle of Houston the same day. Assigned to the Naval Air Station in Glenview, he crashed on May 26,1944. He was buried in Houston. At the time of his death, his stepfather and two brothers were also in military service. Number *■ Across the Librarian’s Desk The staff and Board are coming to the conclusion of the long range planning process. Public hearings for input by our residents will be held this summer. Over the past two years, a 1000-respondent survey has been taken, twelve focus groups were conducted, technology has been reviewed, demographics have been studied, service levels have been assessed, and contemporary Illinois libraries have been visited. The Board and staff have prepared preliminary reports dealing with these issues. Space and building needs have been studied by Anders Dahlgren, nationally recognized library consultant, who produced two studies. One is an assessment of the space needs for the current operation which identified a current need for 54,000 square feet. The second study, a long range space plan, detailed the need for a building of 70,000-80,000 square feet. The staff reports, survey, and Dahlgren reports are available at the Reference Desk for review. The building is currently being studied by the architectural firm of Javore and Associates to determine what possibilities exist for the present structure and site. The final two pieces of our planning process will be a series of public hearings for direct input from our residents and the compilation of the strategic plan itself. The Library is faced with limited options. The structure’s roof and structural columns are not stressed to take the floor loading needed for book stacks, making it expensive and difficult, if not impossible, to simply go up a floor or two. If the Library expands horizontally, we will lose our parking and access. What the resident survey revealed was that our residents want the following: the Library should stay in or near the current location; a drive-through is an urgent need; bigger and better meeting rooms are desired; quiet study space is needed; a separate area for teenagers is called for; DVDs, video and audio products are in great demand; longer hours are desired; parking, ingress and egress are issues with our users; and there is an insatiable demand for more Internet and computer services. continued inside �Adult 'Programs Reservations are requested for most programs Memorial Day Plaque Career Advice Monday.

A Timeline of Library Long-Range Planning: Kesponsiblity and Responsiveness to our Community January, 2002 March, 2004 Board signs resolution to inves­ tigate identification and acqui­ sition of property in the north­ west quadrant for library expansion. Board and Staff meet to identity goals and core values. March, 2002 Technology plan defines future library systems and product needs. Summer, 2002 Library announces plans and goals for long-range planning process. June, 2002 Executive Service Corps conducts job and salary review for all employees. June, 2002 Board and Staff complete Demographic Survey of Deerfield. November, 2002 Library’s value is recognized by DBR Chamber of Commerce’s Special Award for 75 years of outstanding contributions to the community. March, 2003 Village Comprehensive Plan unveiled for public comment. Spring, 2003 Library Board Long-Range Plan Chair Don Van Arsdale outlines plan for 1,000 respondent survey, focus groups. Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks and Architect Frank Gehry talk about the future of the Dee}field Library at Gehry's California headquarters. Summer, 2003 Public Opinion Laboratory of Northern Illinois performs survey which indicates that residents want 1. the Library to stay in present quadrant; 2. convenience: drive-up access, lower shelves, wider aisles; 3. an enlarged and diversified Youth Services Department; and 4. increased access to technology and the Internet. Winter, 2004 Library Planning Consultant Anders Dahlgren completes two studies, which determine 1. we need a building 50% larger than our current one just to efficiently house current holdings and services. (Current library, built in 1969, housed 61,500 items; same space now hous­ es 180,000 items.); 2. future space needs will require an 86,000-squarefoot building. Fall, 2003 Public Opinion Laboratory conducts 12 focus groups to gauge and confirm resident needs. Winter, 2004 Library newsletter informs the community of the planning process and the Library’s vision. May, 2004 Structural analysis of current building and feasibility study determine that enlarging present building is almost impossible, very costly and would not solve present space problems. July, 2004 Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks informs the board that the Library’s present infrastruc­ ture will soon require $2 million of repair. August, 2004 Executive Service Corps coor­ dinates all findings of the past few years into a complete report: The Library’s Strategic Long Range Plan. FUTURE PLANS: Engage a major architect, hire a library consultant to work with the architect, conduct a referendum. The community will be included and informed of all processes to come. �Adult Programs Programs are free but reservations are requested.

The volumes are: Discovering Cultures, Cultures of the World and The Elements. Chris Kopeck, Head of Youth Services, said “We would not otherwise be able to purchase these sets which will help children learn more about and discover the world around them”. The fund, established in Amy’s memory in 1991, is targeted to “expand our knowledge of the world and its people”. In the Library Voter Registration Voters Turn Down Library Advisory Referendum The Deerfield Public Library had an advisory referendum on the November 2,2004 Deerfield ballot requesting “bonds in the amount of $25 million be issued for Library purposes of the Village of Deerfield, in Lake County, Illinois for addition or construction of a new library building of at least 80,000 sq. ft. including site acquisition, parking, library materials and technology and related fixtures, furnishing, improvements and costs”. The final vote tally was 31.43% in favor and 68.57% against. The staff and board would like to thank all those who supported the library and most particularly Deerfield resident Bill Darrow and his citizens’ group who worked so hard to communicate the library’s message. We also greatly appreciated Amie Grahl, Deerfield Review editor, who gave the library's referendum a wonderful endorsement in the Pioneer Press on October 21. This was the first time in over 35 years that the library had gone to the taxpayers for building funds, asking for community support to replace the present library which has outgrown its 1971 building. More space and equipment are required to respond to the needs and requests from the Deerfield community. The library board will continue to plan future library service which the community wants and deserves. Deerfield Area League of Women Voters co-sponsors voter registration with the Deerfield Library from 10-2 Saturdays, February 19 and 26 and March 5 for Lake County residents. Bring identification.

They grasped that a new library is needed in Deerfield and that it would be an exciting resource for the whole community, providing a wider range of educational, cultural, and information ser­ vices to everyone. Also, I would like to thank Bill Darrow and the Friends of the Library for their enthusiastic efforts on our behalf. Secondly, I truly appreciate the thoughtful endorsement of the Library referendum made by the editorial staff of the Deerfield Review. Diverse opinions as shown in the ballot box are the foundation and the beauty of a democracy. That’s why the Library chose to go to the voters to determine if the desire to expand the Library was reflected in the community. After three years of planning, we knew it was important to hear what all the residents had to say. We had tried our best to publicize our planning process: we had articles in every issue of our Browsing newsletter for the past three years and numerous articles in the Deerfield Review, plus our one-thousand-respondent citizen survey and twelve focus groups. We held a library open house and provided ample settings for the community to ask questions. The next step would have been to hire an architect and a library consultant to design a library and produce architectural plans. That step would, by necessity, have been a very expensive one. Before that was done, we needed to know exactly what the residents were willing to pay for. continued on page 2 25 Years of Cooperation Between the Deerfield Schools and the Library! Students’ lack of library know-how led Geri Spinella, (then a language arts teacher, now assistant principal of Caruso Middle School), to consult with Jack Hicks, (then a reference librarian, now library director) to begin a joint library instruction program that has been running for 25 years. The program was designed to bring students into the public library to learn how to use library resources. Jack Hicks said, “Our goal was to widen students’ horizons for doing their assignments. We have many resources that the schools do not have. As Deerfield Library was among the first libraries in Illinois to offer new information tech­ nology, Geri was anxious for students to learn new tech­ nologies. Also, since we are open evenings and weekends, students can come in to use library materials after school hours...good value for Deerfield taxpayers whose children are in school!” This program requires hours of coordination between the teacher and the librarian, scheduling times, selecting topics, and preparing many resources. Once here the students also work with the Youth Services and Circulation Departments. The Library welcomes this opportunity to show young users what the public library has to offer, particularly online magazine databases with full-text articles, available for printing or emailing. Also, the students are pleased to find that, with their library cards, they can use home internet access to reach the Library’s online databases. This January and February eight Caruso Middle School classes came into the Library twice for an hour each time to pursue their personal research projects. Coordinators were Judy Hortin, Head of Reference, and Caruso language arts teacher Leslie Gordon. Leslie, who has been with the program for 20 years, said, “For many of our students, it is an eye opening experience to see how much they can find in the Library on one topic.” Both the Library and Caruso hope that this cooperative mission gives students a skill that will serve them throughout their academic careers and beyond. �Adult Progri Programs are free but reservations are requested. experience necessary: please bring writing materials lor simple, optional exercises. is a return trip by Gerri who regaled the Sazonoff winners several years ago.

Those renovations were designed to give the Library ten to fifteen years added lifespan. The goals of the remodeling have been reached but can go no further. Over the past three years, through surveys and resident input we have heard clearly that our residents want the Library to remain where it is in the center of town. We have also heard from residents that they want more services, more meeting room space, more programs, books and other materials. Currently, we must turn a sympathetic but deaf ear to these requests. The result of the vote leaves us with few immediate options other than to redefine service within the present building. Library staff are pursuing alternatives for the replacement of the roof membrane, air handlers, and air conditioning condensers and compressors. These repairs can mean expensive investment in an aging structure. The vote also means the closing of the window of opportunity to pur­ chase adjacent property for logical expansion. A number of civic leaders have spoken about the importance of this quadrant remaining the “governmental” quadrant, but that is now beyond Library control. Some people have urged me to move heaven and earth to purchase the apartment building to the north of the Library. Such a move would break faith with the intentions of the taxpayers and is not one I will initiate. Though loss of that land limits our future options, frankly we do not have the resources to purchase that building—that would take third-party intervention. This is the first time in thirty-five years we have asked Deerfield taxpayers to approve a referendum. The Library, in fact, has a spotless record of operating within budget over those thirty-five years. Much has been said about the size and cost of our proposed library. In the past ten years, all over the United States, there has been a renaissance of library building. At the same time more than twenty-five libraries have been built in Chicagoland. We are very familiar with all of this construction and the opportunities it has brought to their communities. These new libraries do indeed represent a point of departure over libraries of the past. The communities that have built new libraries have observed that in the age of Internet, the need for library service has not diminished but has grown. Contemporary libraries are techni­ cally and structurally complex buildings that are expensive. Add to that the fact that structural steel and aluminum have risen in price over 30% in the past year, and the cost of new libraries comes into perspective. We will continue to do what we have always done best: address the needs of the community for the future and keep abreast of emerging library trends in technology, programs, services, and materials. To those ends the Board has been working with the Executive Service Corps to begin work on a strategic plan that will address the future of this building and user services, all based on progressive professional, personal service. The Board is committed to providing vision and leadership to ensure that the Library is not on a trajectory that could see it fall behind libraries in neighboring communities. 4j*+' & Jack Alan Hicks Ninth Annual Rosemary Sazonoff Creative Writing Contest—March 7-April 9 honor the memory of former Library trustee, community activist and jour­ nalist Rosemary Sazonoff, we shall again feature our writing contests, one for adults and one for children.
