We have asked for your input through pencil and paper, meeting you in the Library lobby, or chatting across backyard fences. We believe we know what you’d like the Deerfield Public Library to be. We are now beginning an exciting time at the Library. We have to take all these thoughts, discussions, ideas and plans and begin to implement them. Soon we will begin looking for other volunteers to assist us in bringing to Deerfield the best library we possibly can. I hope you will consider joining us! We always welcome your feedback, suggestions and thoughts. Please email any board member (see our email addresses on the back of the newsletter) or drop a note in the suggestion box at the Circulation desk. I look forward to more conversations down the road. Despite renovations completed almost ten years ago, our aging infrastructure, now 35 years old, is in need of major replacements. The Library has engaged the engineering firm of Brian Berg and Associates to assess the specific needs and costs to repair our aging building. The assessment will include cost estimates, prioritizing and a timetable for upgrades to the roof, air conditioning system, air handlers, electrical service, plumbing and service elevators, all required to maintain this building. The Library is open 69 hours a week, serves close to 1000 people per day and tries to provide a safe and healthy environment for patrons, staff and a collection 186,000 items. Previous work on the infrastructure maximized use of available space and also included replacement of the boiler system, plumbing and heat/air controls and hydraulic cylinders on elevators. Following the assessment, the board and Library administrators will study the recommendations and proceed with repairs and replacements. Exact costs are unknown at this time but could be substantial.

Raises Money for Library Deerfield’s energetic Sue Vani, mother of two young children and Lincolnshire first grade teacher, decided that young children need­ ed to learn about philanthropy and that even pre-schoolers needed to find a way to give back to their community. She came up with the idea of K.LD.D.O.S. (Kids in Deerfield Doing Outstanding Service). Their first annual event was a very successful talent, fashion and art show July 21 at Deerfield’s First Presbyterian Church. Highlights included an Elvis impersonator (Kevin Mell, age 8) and hula dancers (Molly and Caroline Nakahara, ages 7 and 3). Kevin Quigley of Cherry Pit fame volunteered to emcee, and all proceeds from the show (which also included a raffle, artwork and crafts) were donated for toys for the library’s Youth Services Department. Vani said about $1000 was raised and already used to pay for a new train set, dollhouse, puppets, puzzles and more.

Each month the trustees are holding “Librarian in the Lobby” to discuss library issues informally with the public. Open library board meetings are held at 8 p.m. the third Wednesday of each month. THE MISSION OF THE DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY is to provide our community with open access to the world of information and ideas, encouraging lifelong learning and personal growth in a welcoming environment. Vani’s friends Danielle Pedderson and Marla Callistein helped Vani organize the very successful event. Their goal this year was to attract children to the library and provide activity for their younger siblings that would lead to a pleasant library experience. The library staff is most grateful to Sue, her adult helpers and the children who made it possible. 2005 Summer Reading Programs Best Year Ever! “Super Stories: Award Winning Reads” Adult Summer Reading Program boasted a record sign-up of 180, with over 70 completing their cards.

Daley Praises Libraries Mayor Daley recently addressed the American Library Association’s annual conference in Chicago. He said that in 2005 alone, Chicago had seven libraries under construction and 45 built or renovated in the past 16 years. He credits the taxpayers for allowing him to invest in libraries in the city and increase taxes for libraries. Libraries are important to the mayor. He said: “I look at libraries as a learning experience. They are part of the education system. It was never separate. When I became mayor, I said This is part and parcel of our educational commitment.’ We need libraries. They are just as important as building police stations. We are building fire stations, senior citizen buildings, schools and libraries because they become anchors of a community. &SG? When somebody sees a library being built in their community, what they see is confidence in the community. The library becomes part of our economic develop­ ment and that’s the key. All of a sudden new homes go in. People Deerfield Nursery School students tour the library and enjoy listening to a story say, ‘We’re now invested in the community...

The committee is inviting both applications and nominations for the position, which requires a master’s degree in library science from an ALA-accredited institution, successful experi­ ence in library administration, excellent interpersonal skills, personal integrity and a commitment to public service. To receive full consideration, nominations and applications, with salary history, should be received no later than April 15 and should be sent to Ken Abosch, Chair, Search Committee, Deerfield Public Library, 920 Waukegan, Deerfield, IL 60015 or kabosch@deerfieldlibrary.org Dedicated to the fullest meeting of the needs of his community of library users and fellow professionals, Jack Hicks is one of those few masters...visionary, imaginative, innovative, effective- Webster’s infinite list of appropriate adjectives is insufficient to describe this true master among us. Administrative Librarian to Retire in June Jack Hicks, Deerfield resident and professional librarian at the Deerfield Library for 34 years, will retire this June. Prior to his appointment to Library Director 18 years ago, he was head of the Reference Department. It has been a long road of dedicated professional service for Hicks, whose top priority all these years has been to serve the Deerfield community by overseeing a library of which Deerfield residents could be proud. In 1972 the library had a collection of 30,000 books. Today there are 185,000 volumes and a world of new formats and information technology. Over the years, Hicks remodeled, renovated and managed to make best use of avail­ able space so that patrons would enjoy a serviceable and attractive environment. Our remodeled (in 1995) separate Fiction room is a testament to Hicks’s art and his devotion to books. With honesty, sensitivity, integrity and creativity, Hicks has brought the library to the national spotlight as one of the finest and most innovative libraries in the country. As a reference librari­ an he left no stone unturned in researching for patrons. Serving the community, he opened the library for numerous community events, not the least of which was serving 82 gallons of free lemonade in the library every year for Family Days. In addition to repairing the building and the computers, constructing a puppet theater and writing its scripts, Hicks provided the first online information retrieval system in the north suburban area and instructed other communities in its use. He instituted “librarian in the lobby” one day each month, listened to the community’s wants and needs and responded to them. He had a vision for a 21st century library for Deerfield, but unfortunately that failed in the recent referendum. He has always put fiscal responsibility first, giving taxpayers the most for their tax dollar. Deerfield Library has more books per capita than any other north suburban library, while remaining the lowest taxing body in the Village. He is greatly admired by professional colleagues nationwide, board and staff. No question has been too small, no hours too long, no challenge too tough. Robert R. McClarren, a Deerfield resident and Director Emeritus of the North Suburban Library System, said, “Dedicated to the fullest meeting of the needs of his community of library users and fellow professionals, Jack Hicks is one of those few masters...visionary, imaginative, innovative, effective-Webster’s infinite list of appropriate adjectives is insufficient to describe this true master among us.” �Adult Programs Programs are free but we request reservations.

A freon leaks, and electrical fires—that I have been involved with for all those years. A lot of tasks not dissimilar from the myth of Sisyphus—working away at the big and little projects every day for 34 years and realizing that the work is never actually finished but is always a work in progress. A work we can always improve. It is important to remember that a library is a dynamic organization and that if it remains static, it fails. An untended library is merely a room full of books, not a function­ ing library7—and it will not be a busy place. There are always a hundred and one jobs, repairs, projects, enhancements, and changes taking place. The Library currently needs more than a few fluffy chairs and a coat of face paint. As I look forward to retirement in June, I realize that there is a lot more heavy lumber that needs to get hauled. The options for the future of the library are not infinite, nor can they be delayed to the time when the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. They boil down to some simple choices: 1. Remain in this building as is and replace or repair the infrastructure. This will cost more than several million dollars. 2. Add on to this building. 3. Build a new library on this site. The work of the consultants (space needs studies, 1000 respondent resident survey, and a handful of other reports that were done in 2002, 2003, and 2004) amply demonstrated the capital needs of this library, which remain valid today. The options are not equal, nor do they all really support adequate library service, and my concern is several of them are too costly for the miniscule return on the investment. Add to this mix District library concerns, rapidly evolving computer products, the Internet, and you can see the Board of Trustees have a full plate before them. What is necessary for those of you who recognize the needs of the Library is to support this Board as they move forward. Help them reorganize the Friends of the Library, build consensus and spread the Library message to all the residents. Support for your library is what is needed most as we move to the future. It is also very important to remember that, through the efforts of Treasurers like Tony Sabato and Bill Seiden, this Library has always operated within a balanced budget and is the lowest-taxing entity in the Village—open more hours and serving more residents than any other. The failure of the Library referendum constrains a logical and normal growth path for the Library, leaving limited options. The property to the north is no longer available. What will help the Library most to succeed is community support, resident involvement, and constructive dialogue. It is important to remember that nothing innovative was ever done without risk and that nothing worthwhile was ever easy. There is a lot of tree felling and hauling yet to be done. I encourage all of you library users, who know and use the library7 daily, to step up and help the new director and the Library Board—and I urge you to be resolute. You know you need a library now more than ever and have told us clearly you want it in exactly the same location. Services cannot be expanded, or even maintained at present levels, without substantial capital improvement. I end my 34 years in Deerfield June 30th. It has been a great run for me personally and professionally. Libraries have changed more in the past thirty years than in the past three hundred years. Deerfield was always at the cutting edge of those changes and developments. Personally, I have raised my family in Deerfield and made many great lifetime friends. I have a lot of plans for the future—travel, volunteer work, kayaks, motorcycles, and building projects. I am proud to have been Deerfield Library Director number five and wish my successor, number six, all the best. The Library’s Deputy Director, Sally Brickman is also retiring from full-time work. Sally has been my partner, the Library’s creative force, and friend for over twenty years and it is a partnership I treasure. I will miss the Library and our resi­ dents more than words can tell; people have always been the joy of my job. Thanks for the memories.

From putting barcodes in books 23 years ago to working behind the Circulation Desk since 1985, Joan has handled nearly every book, CD, DVD, and video game in the Library’s collection. She will retire on May 25, 2007. While raising her family in Northfield, Joan helped create a Friends of the Library group that established the Northfield branch of the Winnetka Public Library. The branch relied largely on volunteers, and Joan did everything from paint­ ing walls to helping patrons. In 1984, she made the leap to paid library employee when she came to Deerfield Public Library to help barcode the library’s collection. After the barcoding project was complete, Joan joined the Circulation Department full time. She quickly moved up to Assistant Head of Circulation and has been the Head of the department since 1998. Joan has eqjoyed many aspects of her job, especially work­ ing with the patrons. “Many are friends at this point. We worry about them when we don’t see our regulars for awhile.” Though she will miss being part of special moments like helping a child get his or her first library card, Joan is looking forward to the many activities her retirement will allow her to eqjoy. Joan has children living on both the East and West Coasts and plans to make frequent visits. When at home, she’ll be taking classes and enjoy­ ing her membership to the Chicago Botanic Garden. And, her friends at the library hope, coming back to be waited on from the other side of the desk. % \he //X Studying without the Shhhhhh Meeting Room Policy (Back by Popular Demand!)

You Gotta Have Friends A new group, the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library, is forming to promote the enrichment of the Deerfield Public Library. The Friends work together to encourage the community to have an increased understanding of and apprecia­ tion for the materials and services available from the Library; to supplement Library services, programs and materials in accordance with the Library’s policies and needs; and to provide fundraising and advocacy for the Library.

New Youth Services Librarian Mary Scholtens joined the Youth Services Department in January. Mary recently graduated from Dominican University with a Master’s degree in Library and Information Science, with a concentration in youth services. Mary has been reading ever since she can remember and her current favorite book is Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett. Ait is another one of Mary’s interests, particularly pottery. Mary did her undergraduate work in ceramics at Hope College in Holland, Michigan, and she currently spends her spare time creating pottery in her studio. Acknowledgments Deerfield Public Library gratefully acknowledges the many monetary gifts it received through the years in memory of Amy Simon. These donations were primarily used to purchase materials for the Youth Services Department “to expand knowledge of the world and its people.” Recently, the family and friends of Olivia Lucy Yang donated to the Youth Services Department in Olivia’s memory. The Library selected Asian-themed books and language CDs for children. In addition, the family of Carolyn Colburn designated Deerfield Public Library as a recipient of gifts in Ms. Colburn’s memory. The Library has since purchased several books in her name. The Deerfield Woman’s Club has also regu­ larly contributed toward adult books in memory of its members. The Library is honored to be the recipient of these memorial gifts. �Book Discussions in the Library You can find copies of the books to be discussed at the Circulation Desk one month prior to discussion. ■ Thursday, March 8,10:30 a.m. Case Histories by Kate Atkinson Private detective Jackson Brodie takes on three seemingly unrelated investigations, including that of two women who discover a shocking clue to the disappearance of their sister thirty years earlier. ■ Thursday, March 15, 7:30 p.m. Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer Oskar Schell, the 9-year-old son of a man killed in the World Trade Center attacks, searches the five boroughs of New York City for the lock that fits the mysterious key his father left behind. ■ Thursday, April 12,10:30 a.m. East Wind, Rain by Caroline Paul When an unidentified plane crashes on the remote Hawaiian island of Niihau in December 1941, the islanders do not realize that the aircraft is a Japanese Zero and that the surviving pilot has just taken part in the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
