One Book, One Zip Code The 2010 “One Book, One Zip Code” selection for adults and high school students is Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.

Her charming black and white illustrations help the reader see the countiy’s dramatic changes. The constant “but, why?” of childhood is the perfect vehicle for exploring the world-changing events of 1980s Iran. This is the third year for the “One Book, One Zip Code” pro­ gram. Previously, the communities of Bannockburn, Deerfield, and Riverwoods came together to discuss Mountains Beyond Mountains and Listening Is an Act ofLove.

A efforts to inform and seek feedback from Deerfield residents about Library needs and possibilities. During Februaiy, the Board formed a citizen input group of interested community members. In March, the Board will hold open house-style public information sessions for all interested Deerfield residents. For convenience, the days and times will vary, but the information will remain the same. The intent is to share information about the Library’s current building, infrastructure problems, programming and service limitations, future needs, and funding alternatives. In exchange, the Board will seek feedback from community members to help the Board consider and assess alternatives. In late spring, the Board will use an independent firm to conduct a scientifically-representative sample of randomly chosen residents for a telephone survey. The results will be shared with the citizen input group and others. In June and July, a second round of public information sessions will be held for all residents, to share results of the survey and other inputs, and to seek additional feedback. Through these public-engagement activities, by late summer, the Board hopes to determine which alternative may be the most attractive to community members. The Board will then decide how to proceed toward that objective, and how the project should be funded. Library Board Hosts Open House Events to Discuss Facility Options Interested community members are invited to attend one or more of the Library open houses scheduled for March. The open house will be an opportunity to learn more about the facility issues and needs, options being studied, and financing alternatives for building improvements. A formal presentation will take place at the beginning of each session; then attendees may stay for the discussion and tours. The Library Board is encouraging feedback from the community on the various Library options. Visit the Library Web site for further information and to register in advance. All sessions are at the Library.

The March series of Public Open Houses, the April/May telephone survey, and the Citizen Input Group have all contributed to our understanding of the perspectives, concerns, and suggestions about the future of the Library in our village. What’s next? The Library Board will review the feedback from the Open Houses, telephone survey, and Citizen Input Group. Based on these and other resources, the Library Board will select one of the original four options and begin to develop it further. They will determine a preferred course of action, and share it with the Village Board. Then, the preferred option will be shared with the community through the second series of Public Open Houses. Once again, public feedback will be collected and reviewed with the Citizen Input Group. By late summer, the Library Board will determine whether to proceed with a possible referendum. Want to learn more? Have an opinion to share? The Library Board will continue to invite participation through the next series of Public Open Houses. (See “Planning for the Future” for dates and times of the sessions.) Take a behind-thescenes tour. Learn about the issues. Compare us to other libraries. Consider the costs. To contact a Board member, call or email them using the contact information provided on the back cover of the newsletter, or the Library website. www. d eerfi e Id li bra ry.org 6- Number i Planning for the Future The Library Board is committed to keeping Deerfield residents informed about, and involved in, the future of the Library. Based upon feedback from the March series of Public Open Houses and the telephone survey conducted in April, the Library Board will select one of the four building improvement options presented and ask the architects and financial consultant to develop it further. During the next series of Public Open Houses, the selected option will be presented in more detail and additional public feedback will be sought. Each event in the series will follow the same agenda, offering residents a variety of convenient times to attend. One-hour Open Houses will be held Saturday, June 26 at 3 p.m. and Tuesday, June 29 at 7 p.m. Results of March Public Open Houses Five Public Open Houses were held in March to familiarize Deerfield residents with the Library building history and needs, additional expressed needs of the community, four possible building improvement options, and the costs projected for each option—including possible effects on a resident’s real estate taxes. About 42 members of the general public attended the sessions, and 30 completed feedback forms. In addition, members of the Citizen Input Group assisted the Board in evaluating the community feedback and provided their own perspectives at a special Board meeting held April 24. Of the four options presented, 35% preferred Option 3—Remodel and Expand, while 60% selected Option 4—Build a New Library. The remaining 5% chose Option 1 or Option 2 which provide for changes necessary to meet code, and limited other improvements. The Library Board continues to receive valuable input from the Citizen Input Group. Members are: Christine Barr, John Bartok, Cookie Center, Lorraine Clark, Lisa Crist, Betsy Eisenhauer, Luisa Ellenbogen, Brooke Fogt, Mark Fox, Mike Gruenhut, Laurie Leibowitz, Rick Lynn, Nancy O’Neill, Jean Reuther, Bob Rosenbacher, Judy Smith, Amy Thale, Jane Weinstein-Jacobson and Bruce Zimmerman. Results of Telephone Survey The Library Board hired the Northern Illinois University (NIU) Public Opinion Laboratory to conduct a telephone survey of 400 residents of Deerfield. Phone numbers were chosen at random from those assigned to the Deerfield area—they were not provided by the Library, nor did NIU have any access to the Library’s patron database. The survey was developed by NIU with Libraiy input. Results will appear on the Library's web site. The Library Board will use the findings, combined with feedback from the Open Houses and other sources, to make a decision about which building option to pursue, if any. Updates on the surveys, reports, and Board actions are available at http://www.deerfieldlibrary.org/deeifield/planning.asp. �Adult Programs Programs are free and open to the public.

Trustees voted to put a referendum on the November 2010 general election ballot asking for funds for the Library Improvement Plan. (See related article.) As President of the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees, I am proud of the public process used to develop the plan. A 23-member Citizens Input Group (CIG) helped the Library Board gather and evaluate feedback about Library needs and options through a series of seven community open houses in March and June. The Board also sought input about improvement options through an independent telephone survey of community residents, as well as one-on-one conversations. As a result of what we heard, Library Trustees combined elements from several options and downsized the most ambitious improvement suggestions. The Library Improvement Plan expands on what is now available and possible. It will bring our Library into the 21st centuiy in order to provide Deerfield with the greatest possible value from this important community asset. On behalf of the Libraiy Board, I want to thank everyone who participated in this process by sharing ideas, feedback, and questions. Especially, we want to thank the members of the Citizens Input Group for being the additional eyes and ears for the Libraiy Board, by helping trustees gather input from Deerfield residents. We look forward to talking with community members over the next few months as we provide more details about the Libraiy Improvement Plan. "•WS. *6' Number 2 Library Improvement Plan Over the past year, the Libraiy Board has carefully evaluated options for improving our nearly 40-year-old libraiy building and its capacity to serve Deerfield residents. Libraiy Trustees sought input from Deerfield residents and studied how best to meet the libraiy service needs of our community now and into the future. At its July 21,2010 meeting, Libraiy Trustees reviewed all these findings and voted unanimously to seek funding through a November 2010 referendum for a Libraiy Improvement Plan. The plan will upgrade infrastructure, reconfigure and renovate existing space, and expand the Libraiy by about 10,000 square feet. The Deerfield Public Libraiy has been well used since the building opened more than 39 years ago. Since 1971, Deerfield’s population has changed and usage has increased. New types of materials, services, and technology have expanded the ways residents can use and benefit from the Libraiy. “While we’ve been able to update some services to meet changing needs, we face challenges in delivering 21st-century service from a building that was built in the last centuiy. Our residents deserve a full-service library that is better able to meet the growing demands and changing needs of our community,” said Ken Abosch, Library Board President. After considering a range of options and reviewing community input, the Libraiy Board developed a Libraiy Improvement Plan that it feels offers the greatest value in the most cost-effective manner. The project is significantly downsized from a 2004 referendum which sought to build a new libraiy. The 2010 referendum amount of $11,775 million is less than half of the amount sought in 2004. The existing building will be renovated and expanded, providing new and better spaces at a more economical cost. Exciting new areas and features will be designed for flexibility to meet changing space and patron needs into the future. The Libraiy Board plans to spend $2 million of its reserves on the project. The reserves were accumulated specifically for this type of need: to update and replace infrastructure, or other capital project needs related to the building. More information about the proposed Libraiy Improvement Plan is available on the Library’s website at www.deerfieldlibraiy.org. In addition, Public Information Meetings in September and October will provide architectural conceptual drawings and more information about the project.

The recent approval of the Library’s request for funding for the Library Improvement Plan is a win for everyone in Deerfield. This gives us the opportunity to improve our library building and services, which will benefit the entire community. We have begun to get questions about how soon we will proceed. There are many steps to be completed and approvals to be obtained as we move forward. For example, we need to complete the architectural designs, and then share them with Village Commissions as part of the approval process. Certain questions or concerns may require some adjustments to the design or other changes. When the approval process is final, we will need to go out to bid for construction, then evaluate the bids to assure we are getting the best value and quality for the project. At best this process will take several seasons, if all goes smoothly. We appreciate the ongoing interest of our residents, and we will continue to keep you updated via our Facebook and Website pages. We received very positive feedback about our openness during the referendum, and we plan to continue sharing our progress with you along the way. Of course you are also welcome to attend Library Board meetings, or read the minutes of these meetings on our website. Keeping you informed and involved is important to us, so please share your questions and comments along the way. Mary Pergander Library Director 'lift | THANK YOU, DEERFIELD mm ■ i r»Y ft II/ rjkLk FA wn . ‘ Lr - _U ft’ : Library Improvement Plans Move Forward The November 2 referendum for $11,775 million to fund the Library Improvement Plan was approved! Over 58.4% of Deerfield voters voted yes, with 41.5% voting against. The plan calls for improvements to the Library building and services, in order to meet the needs of Deerfield residents for the next 20 years or more. Space will be reorganized, remodeled, and expanded. The building layout will become more open and flexible to allow for changing needs and multi-purpose uses. Adults will have more quiet reading areas. Additional computers will be added for adults and children, and a new Technology Lab will offer instruction and workshops. The Youth Services area will be improved, along with a larger and better designed Youth Program Room. All restrooms will be ADA compliant. Self-check kiosks and a convenience center will be added, and the meeting room will be enlarged. The building’s aging infrastructure will be upgraded or replaced, and the parking lot will be improved. “The vote is a win for everyone in Deerfield. This gives us the opportunity to improve our Library building and services, which will benefit the entire community,” said Ken Abosch, President of the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees. “The Library Board is grateful to eveiyone who provided ideas and feedback as we developed the Library Improvement Plan. We also want to thank Deerfield residents for the time they took to become informed about the referendum.” The Board will proceed with the Libraiy Improvement Plan in the most expedient and efficient manner possible. There are many steps involved, including finalizing architectural design, reviewing of the plans by Village commissions, completing construction documents, and bidding the various phases of construction work. It’s not possible at this time to say exactly when construction will begin. Please check the Library’s Web site for the latest information about implementation of the Library Improvement Plan. �Programs are free and open to the public.

That is a P' A question I field many times a day from residents interested in knowing how our construction plans are coming along. Our design process is just kicking off. The Library Board is seeking input from a variety of sources to refine the design concepts. In the near future, we will also begin the Village Commissions approval process. Consistent with our commitment to keep residents informed and involved, we are planning a community meeting this spring to share the renderings of the design to that stage. This would include the interior, exterior, landscaping, and energy plans. Please watch for announcements of the date and time. At Although actual construction is still far off, there are sounds of construction near our Circulation department as we install a RFID system for patron convenience and improved accuracy. A new interior “window” has been created. Library materials returned through that window are automatically checked in, reducing error and getting materials back to the shelves more quickly. We are also combining our Teen and Media service desks into one unit at a more convenient location for improved service. Look for our new, welcoming Information desk and hot beverage vending near the Library entrance, and patron-oriented checkout stations in Youth Services as well as at the Circulation desk. (Thanks to the Friends for purchasing the first of three new stations!) We welcome resident feedback to make these services even better in the new construction. Bottom line: We never stop seeking ways to better serve our library patrons and community. Faster, More Accurate Service with RFID and Self Check As the Library plans for a large-scale renovation project, we are making a series of service improvements that will have immediate benefits for our patrons before implementing them in a reconfigured building. We have recently put Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags in all of our materials to increase the speed and accuracy of checking items in and out of the Library. RFID will check in items instantaneously, with nearly 100% accuracy. Items will automatically be sorted upon check-in and get back on the shelves and into circulation more quickly. RFID tags will also allow patrons to quickly and easily use new checkout machines installed on the Library’s upper and lower levels. Self-check stations help patrons get their selections out the door and home to eqjoy sooner. Staff members will be available all hours of operation to assist patrons with these new stations. Patrons who require assistance with library card registration or questions about their account will now be able to take their time working with a circulation staff member away from busy checkout lanes. In addition, an Information desk near the front gates will also help patrons get speedy responses to our most frequently asked questions. Implementing RFID at this time will also greatly improve the Library’s ability to keep track of materials during an extensive renovation project. Read more about the Library’s next steps in the Message from the Director. Where’s One Book, One Zip Code? Discussions and events tailored to the 2011 community-wide \ reading program selection, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer, will take place this fall to bii© 8@©Ss coincide with the 10-year anniversary of September 11, 2001.

Currently, we are completing the design approvals process through the Commissions and the Village Board. We are also looking for a suitable temporary site during construction. Here is our estimated calendar: • September, 2011 — Begin creating construction documents • January, 2012 — Go out for construction bids • February, 2012 — Move into temporary site • April, 2012 — Begin construction on remodeling and expansion • Late fall 2013 — Return to 920 Waukegan We appreciate the input and feedback we receive from residents along the way, whether through our public information sessions, emails and comment cards, visits with our Board members at Farmers Markets or just in line at the grocery store! In discussions about the building project, we are often asked how the Library is addressing the rapid increase in electronic formats for books and movies. We already have e-books and e-audios available, along with a limited video selection. Currently, e-book demand is surpassing our available copies. We will soon make more e-book copies of popular titles available to our users, while still offering a wide selection of new and beloved print books. We are taking these changes into account as we plan the new spaces for the Library, allowing MORE to be the dominant word—more books through the combination of print and e-formats, more space to read in a comfortable chair, more room for individuals using laptops, more private spaces for small group discussions, more space to spread out study materials. Throughout the changes to come, we will continue to share our developing plans and progress with residents through our website, print newsletter, Facebook, and other means. We hope you will follow along!

We’re Reading Together, Again! Our community-wide reading program, One Book, One Zip Code, coincides with the 10th anniversary of September 11,2001, an event that drives the plot of this year’s selection, “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” by Jonathan Safran Foer. In the book, nine-year-old Oskar Schell embarks on a secret mission to find the lock that matches a mysterious key that belonged to his father, who died in the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11. This brings Oskar into contact with survivors of all sorts on an affecting, often funny, and ultimately healing journey. The 10-year anniversary played a big role in the One Book, One Zip Code committee’s selection. “One way we learn about the past is through stories,” says David Hirsch, long time member of the committee. “Fiction is a powerful vehicle for us to explore our relationships with each other and with events like 9/11. One of the most wonderful things about reading this book at this time is that it enhances both the experience of reading and our understanding of the com­ plexities of 9/11. We hope that this book adds a significant layer to the commemoration of 9/11.” Another way we hope to add a “significant layer” to this important remembrance is through our programming. On Sunday, September 11, following the civic ceremony at Deerfield Village Hall which starts at 1:30 p.m, Rabbi Aaron Melman of Temple Beth Shalom in Northbrook will speak about his personal experiences as student chaplain of the New York Fire Department on 9/11. At 6:30 p.m. on Monday, September 12, at Deerfield High School, David Hirsch will interview the author via Skype! Plus, Whitehall of Deerfield will give away two Nooks and Barnes & Noble gift cards. Other One Book programs are highlighted in this issue of BROWSING or at onebookonezipcode.org. Special cards for sharing thoughts of 9/11 will be available at every event, at the Library, at the Patty Turner Center, at the high school and elsewhere. People can drop off their cards or mail them to the Library, which will collect the cards in a book that will be added to the collection. Please join us in reading together, again! 5 �LHOP-IN ACTIVITIES STORYTIMES Registration begins August 29 Family Times After School Stories Saturdays, September 3-November 26, 11 ami All ages and their parent or caregiver Come to the Storytime Room for a drop-in storytime for the whole family.

Once the final location is agreed upon and the lease signed, we will make only the minimal changes necessary to meet building codes and make the spaces usable for our purposes. Nothing fancy! We will also obtain a special use permit from the Village to operate the site as a temporary Library. *r*»;*'m LAV Our move from the current building to an interim site is planned for late spring. Some meeting room functions and programs will be curtailed around mid-December, as we begin packing and preparing for the move. Be assured that as soon as we know where we’re going to be, we’ll let the community know all the details, including— importantly—how we will continue to provide great service. We’re also moving forward with the renovation of the current Library, including making final design decisions for the interior, selecting the color palette with floor and wall finishes, and creating construction drawings for the project. We have selected Mortenson as the Construction Management firm. You can follow our progress on our website and Facebook, or by attending our board meetings. Please see our website for dates, times, locations, and prior board meeting minutes, too.

For example, we are dedicating more dollars to extra copies of titles for which there are long waiting lists, and ONLY Deerfield cardholders will be eligible for those added copies. This will lessen the time our patrons spend waiting for a popular e-book. We will also temporarily adjust our materials budget while we are in the small temporary space to purchase additional e-books to meet demand. % BOOK On Track for Deerfield’s Winter Celebration December 3rd A very special run of very special model trains by our friends at North Central O’Gaugers is a highlight of Deerfield’s & hi * Winter Celebration, Saturday, December t it *■ 3,9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This must-see model fy*: r railroad exhibit features fictional favorites like Thomas the Tank Engine and The Hogwarts Express, as well as popular regional and historical lines.

If you need help downloading, stop by the Reference or Multimedia Desks for help! �Go Beyond Google • • • Sometimes, you just need more information—or you need to be sure that the information you're getting is accurate, current and reliable—than the results of an “I’m feeling lucky” Google search. Here are two true stories featuring websites recommended by ourfully-qualified research professionals, also known as Reference Libranans! MedlinePlus Recently, I had a patron ask for information on diabetes. The patron was just diagnosed and looking for reliable information but without all the medical jargon. In addition to our books (located in non-fiction, call #616.462), I introduced the patron to my favorite go-to place for medical information, medlineplus.gov. I love this site for several reasons. First, it is specifically written for patients, their families, and friends creating one of the most easily understood medical information sites out there. Second, it is produced by the National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health making it one of the most reliable places to obtain information about diseases, conditions, and other medical issues. MedlinePlus has three very helpful sections, “Health Topics”, “Drugs & Supplements” and “Videos and Cool Tools”. “Health Topics” is like an encyclopedia and provides an overview of the topic including symptoms, treatments, prevention and much more. The “Drugs & Supplements” section answers questions about why a medication would be prescribed and how it should be used. The “Video and Cool Tools” portion offers interactive tutorials and videos regarding specific topics. After reviewing these segments, the patron was thrilled with the information we discovered! This resource provided the patron with an easy to understand explanation of diabetes without dumbing down the information. As a bonus, the patron felt much more confident about what questions to ask the doctor during the next visit. CNET AARP Tax-Aide Moves to the Patty Turner Center AARP Tax-Aide—a free tax help service the Library has hosted for many years—will relocate to the Patty Turner Center as the Library begins its own relocation to an interim site. Starting February 3, IRS certified volunteers for the AARP will be on hand every Tuesday and Friday through April 13 from 1-4 p.m. at the Patty Turner Center, 375 Elm Street, 847-9404010. You don’t need to be an older adult, a member of the AARP, or the Patty Turner Center to receive assistance. Please bring copies of last year’s returns and all tax forms you receive (W-2s, 1099s, etc.). Please call the Patty Turner at 847-9404010 starting Monday, January 30, to make an appointment. A patron needed some help choosing a tablet computer. She was going on vacation and needed something that would allow her to watch a movie on the plane, check her e-mail, and read an e-book, and it still had to fit in her bag. After taking a look at Consumer Reports online (available free to Deerfield cardholders on the Library’s website), I introduced her to CNET.com, a website known for its technology reviews and how-tos. She watched videos of tablet shopping tips and reviews, compared web speed and battery life of different models, and read thoughtful reviews from CNET editors. She was able to search through the list of tablets by price range, manufacturer, screen size, and more. She found two that she really liked and she was going to see what they looked like in person at the store. She was a happy camper! CNET is a great way to stay up-to-date with technology. They review everything from cell phones to GPS systems to digital cameras. Their video reviews are especially informative, since they spend time going over the whole device, showing off all the buttons and demonstrating how it actually works. They also offer a lot of information and advice on what to purchase and how to use it in your daily life. It’s an interactive website with videos, podcasts, and more traditional articles. They invite readers to post comments and suggestions, so there’s plenty of real-world feedback as well. The website can seem a little busy, with all of the different information they’re sharing, but they do make it easy to search by category or by reviews, videos, and how-tos. I would definitely recommend this website to anyone interested in up-to-date tech reviews and information, and especially for people who get more from watching reviews than reading them.

The Library—staff and Trustees—and the professionals at PSA Dewberry, are all committed to making the renovated building as green as possible. Here’s a list of items already incorporated in the plan: • We will monitor construction activities for possible pollution in and around the site. • Additional green spaces will be added to the parking lot. • Many native and drought tolerant plants will be used in landscaping. • There will be secure bike racks near the building to encourage fewer cars. • To reduce heat-island effect the roof has a high solar-reflectance index. • The interior lighting will be light­ harvesting and occupant-sensing. • Restroom fixtures will be low-flow. • We will allocate space for increased recycling. • Where possible, building products and finishes will incorporate recycled materials. • Where appropriate, building materials and products will come from within 500 miles of the site. • Adhesives, sealants, primers, paints, etc. will be low in volatile organic compounds. • Where possible, flooring and furnishings will be low-emitting as well. • The design team includes LEED professionals in architecture, engineering, and interior design.

Message from the President Deerfield Public Library is expected to move to Cadwell’s Corners as a temporary site during the remodeling and expansion of the 40 year old current library building. The current Libraiy is 32,500 sq. ft. The temporary home will be about 22,000 sq. ft. Regarding our temporary library home We have reached another milestone in our Library Improvement Project. We are finalizing lease negotiations with the owners of the Cadwell’s Corners shopping center. The former furniture store is the anticipated temporary home for Deerfield Public Libraiy. We are also seeking approval from the Village of Deerfield. The Library Board would like to thank resident Jack Frigo for his invaluable service in guiding us through the temporary property selection process. WHERE? The Deerfield Public Library is currently located at 920 Waukegan Road in Deerfield. Cadwell’s Corners is 1.3 miles south, at the north east corner of the intersection of Waukegan Road and Lake Cook Road in Deerfield. The Libraiy will occupy the far south unit, formerly the Honquest furniture store. The space is only two-thirds the size of our current building. Nevertheless, we are committed to continuing quality library services while occupying our temporary home. Through creative planning we will be able to bring our full collections of books, movies, and music. There also will be computers for adults and children. Some of our programs and meetings will be held off-site, and we appreciate the cooperation of the Village, Park District, School District 113 and local businesses to make this possible. WHEN? The Libraiy is expected to close its 920 Waukegan Road site in early May and reopen at the Cadwell’s Corners site in early June. The temporary home is expected to open in June, just in time for the Summer Reading Clubs. Changes to that site will be minimal - just enough for safety and comfort. We want to focus our construction dollars on the permanent location, rather than the temporary one. FOR MORE INFORMATION There are many ways to learn more and follow our progress: • Go to our website at deerfieldlibrary.org. Updates will be posted regularly. • While there, sign up for Be First to Know, our e-newsletter, and the news will come to YOU! • Follow us on Facebook for updates and links.

We Remember. t • The Board of Trustees and staff of Deerfield Public Library were deeply saddened to learn of the sudden passing of our former, long-time library director Jack Alan Hicks in late December. He was hired in 1972 as a Reference Librarian, and then served as Administrative Librarian from 1988 until his retirement in June of 2006. Jack was a library icon throughout the State, an early innovator of library technology, and created an experience for Deerfield Public Library patrons which was unique among Illinois libraries. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
