Many people have asked about the changes I've seen in those short twenty years. There have been tremendous observable physical changes: Lake Cook Road was a two lane country road, no Northbrook Court, you could park alone Deerfield and w I wonder Waukegan Roads in the what the downtown area, of course future holds the gun club blasted away for us? M every weekend and a pony ride farm was located there. The schools were growing to cope with a burgeoning student body (some things have come full circle), and I could ride my bicycle out my back door all the way to Crystal Lake and never see a car. Traffic now defines us. Sara Lee, a good neighbor for forty years, is gone and the fragrance of the evening baking only a memory. The brickyard and the boat storage is forgotten by most of us. Volkswagen of North America was headquartered in Deerfield, but they left before the Lake Cook Corridor developed. DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY Effects of System Budget Cuts n the last issue of "Browsing" the State of Illinois Budget cuts for Library Systems were discussed. Many residents have asked how those cuts are affecting service at the Deerfield Public Library. The services were previously delivered by the North Suburban Library System but now the Deerfield staff must do all the leg and paper work. i has been seriously disrupted. A long-term solution will be to develop a new magazine directory, new computer products giving access and locations, additional local spending, and increased reliance on local networking. This will cost Deerfield money at the local level and deflect resources. What these costs are will be determined by experience over the next year. The service cuts have a direct impact upon delivery of magazine articles, books, and audio visual materials Deerfield does not own. Right now the Library is coping by using the telephone to arrange direct loans and access to non-library materials. The North Suburban Library System has instituted new protocols and procedures for sharing other libraries' collections and is in the process of compiling a computer product to aid this sharing. Students of all ages, retirees, working people, and businesses have all felt the cuts. Many residents have voiced anger at library staff for cuts the staff had no voice in making. The Library does not have unlimited resources to make up this shortfall. The question of whether or not the measures detailed above will return library services to the levels we used for twenty years is as yet unanswered. What is known is that the way we are currently coping will the shortfall is ineffective and expensive, often resulting in patron disappointment. A patchwork fix will not replace coordinated statewide efforts. ■ These are stop gap measures at best because service levels and resident satisfaction have been reduced. Coordinated and systematic library service REMINDER A more telling comment would be how much Deerfield has remained as it was: The same interesting residents, who show (Continued on p. 2) Suggestions?

I would never have expected that our school age population would rise again, but it is surely doing so, nor would I have predicted all the traffic, yet Lake Cook and Waukegan Roads seem to be the axle of the universe on any given rush hour. Computers have entered our lives and the library too— never to go away, I assume. My old departed friend Sam Fosdick used to say that Deerfield would become merely a collection of "real estate offices, hair parlors, and grocery stores" as suburbia moved beyond us to the western suburbs and our real shopping was done elsewhere.

He was sure that my oldest brother, fighting far away in Korea, would be home soon and wanted the tree there to greet him. That tree stayed up until June of 1953. There were so many expectations like that in 1952—with a new and trusted president coming into office—we thought everything was possible. Taking my tree down this year, I was struck by those wThen, as now, memories and the contrast to ^ look forward today—how times change. ^Optimistically to A long distance call from San wi new president Francisco, as my brother shipped out for Korea, for to heal serious instance, seemed like it came problems** from another planet. &The library made a difference in my life.

We lived at the end of an 18 mile dirt road and you could see those lights in our window for miles across the snow as we came home at night. We all wanted our favorite brother home safe, away from deadly harm and death he faced every day. He saw the Pusan Perimeter, Yalu River and the frozen Chosin, and we knew exactly what that meant. Seeing "his" tree every day gave us great comfort. I remember that winter of hopefulness very clearly—and how our optimism never faded, even as the tree shriveled. That tree became an unsspoken magic in our house— we wouldn't take it down because it was somehow protecting my brother. So many neighbors and friends had sons, who were wounded or killed, we worried eve We were pulling for Ike and a peace future—tne dawn of a new day.

First we have to overcome street crime, drues, Somalia, Iraq, Bosnia, a runaway deficit and a political system that has become so cruelly partisan. I wonder if hope can really influence or diminish the future? My brother came home safe in the Fall of 1953—he slipped in the back door unannounced, without a word and it seems to me the world he came back to has never been the same. Then, as now, we look forward optimistically to a new president to heal serious problems—but one who faces much sterner challenges, with a less firm footing than Ike did. Today we hold the same wish with the same optimism for everyone's brother and sister. So many of them face deadly peril everyday. With the end of forty-five years of superpower rivalry and confrontation we The two books I am recommending this month are Truman by David McCullough and Iron Fist by Jeffrey Rodengen—two books about the great American dream of rising from humble beginnings to success and greatness. I cannot imagine two biographies more different in style and content. Truman, the underrated underdoe, has somehow managed to become everybody's (including Bush and Clinton) favorite president today. Iron Fist perfectly describes Carl Kiekhafer, the hard driving brilliant, engineer and founder of Mercury Marine.

We will do this symbolically on the first day of National Library Week. We will have bands and ice cream and music, but the real celebration will be the recognition of the people who have made us the exemplary library we are today. I know there are a lot of people to thank. We know many of the people we want to thank during the recognition part of our celebration: Bob York, Tom Parfitt, Mary Mazur, Pat Horne and Keith Nickoley, are the easy names. What we really need help with is all the names of all the people who helped pass out handbills, held coffee hours, spoke at schools — those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to pass the numerous referendums, bond issues, special legislation and court challenges that built this Library. It is often forgotten that this Li­ brary has had a long and colorful his­ tory full of wonderful personalities and issues. We have seen numerous tax fights, boundary squabbles, cen­ sorship battles, "Save Our Library " campaigns, along with agitated re­ former candidates. The present build­ ing and the services we offer did not just happen — they were the result of long, hard work by many concerned and visionary residents. The Library has withstood the test of time. If you know the names of those who made this Library possible, please take the time to write them down and let me know what they did — large and small — because every­ one is important.

The Library is 65 years old and they made it happen. We owe a debt of gratitude to those head Librarians who founded, nur­ tured, and developed the Deerfield Public Library. Starting in 1927 and progressing to today there have been: Mrs. Frank Russo, Mrs. Chester Wolf — for over 25 years, Mrs. Helen Haney, and the builder of this Library, Mrs. Suzanne Whetstone. They estab­ lished a Library that serves the com­ munity well and is a source of great pride. We also want to take time to ac­ knowledge the lasting contribution made to this community by a single individual. The Library will name its Young People's Department in honor of Dr. Diego Redondo. Since Dr. Re­ dondo touched and enriched the lives of so many of us — especially our children — it is fitting to create a per­ manent memorial for him. We will dedicate the Department in his honor during our Birthday celebration. Please let me know those names, and please come to our Party. You'll come for the nostalgia, but stay for the fun.

Across the Librarian's Deski Librarians are beguiled by the idea that they are harbingers, arbiters, and decision makers when it comes to taste, culture, education and all things literary. Especially in the growth and development of their own library's collection and services. I am as guilty of this as any librarian. Sometimes events bring you down to earth. This past winter saw the deaths of two long-time Deerfield Library patrons — Marion Cole and Sam Fosdick. They were both great library users who guided us, chided us, and led the Library to provide many of the materials and services we offer today. o O Q Forget Summer boredom and travel with us: Discover! • O Read ! will be the . theme for the children this year with a membership that promises ^ to be a passport to a summer of new discov­ eries and enjoyable Discover!

Both Marion and Sam knew how to use libraries, what a library should be, and how a librarian can mediate and facilitate the use of the collection to the public. They were both lifetime readers. Reflecting on Sam and Marion as patrons and people makes me realize how important and close the relation­ ship is that develops between a library, its librarians and the residents. Librarians often forget the tremendous impact the patrons have on what we do, who we are, and how we do it.

In the case of Sam and Marion I would say we were gently led to do our best. Marion's influence on reference service in this Library cannot be overstated. She insisted on a high level of service, interlibrary loan, and a strong reference collection. Marion never accepted a lame or tired answer in lieu of real service. She helped set our standards for refer­ ence and made us live up to them. Sam was a dapper and urbane gentleman who expected exactly the same high level of service. His rogu­ ish but gentle sense of humor often concealed a very incisive message. Sam's advice about our Business Ref­ erence Room has changed how that room is organized, what we have in there, and how the staff interprets the collection to the public. Knowing and working with Mar­ ion and Sam for so many years was always interesting. Many people think a public library would be a great place to work if you could just keep the public out. It is wonderful patrons like Marion and Sam who make library work and developing that library — its services and collec­ tion — so rewarding and such a plea­ sure. There are so many people who have influenced us over such a long period of time that it would be hard to name them all. Libraries are indeed peo­ ple places. Two of them, Marion and Sam, both people I am glad to have known, will be missed by all of us.

A statistic that sur­ faced as we pre­ pared our "Brief History of the Deerfield Library" — In 1930 we cir­ culated 1000 books per month; in 1991’92, we circulated 1000 per day! Yet Deerfield Library takes the smallest bite (2.5%) of the Village property tax payment and serves all ages. *** William Cormier reports a record 250 people came to the library for free tax assistance offered by the AARP and the IRS this year.

Deerfield Library belongs to the North Suburban Library System (NSLS) whose budget has been cut by 3314%, or $900,000. At this juncture, it is hard to quantify how these cuts will affect Deerfield Library. Jack Hicks, Administrative Librarian said, "All the external sup­ port services that the public has come to count on will be restricted, or even eliminated." Some system services to which the public has become accustomed are interlibrary loan of books, Central Seri­ als Service which provides free photo­ copies of articles in magazines not owned by Deerfield, System Reference Service which acts as a backup for ref­ erence questions we are unable to answer, and the loan of audio visual materials to supplement our collec­ tion. Effective immediately, the serials service for copies of articles has ceased. Deerfield and all other Illinois libraries will face diminished services as all library systems in the state are affected. Fifteen staff members of the North Suburban Library System have lost their jobs as a result of this cut in state funds. Meet Library Administrators Better than an inanimate sugges­ tion box, Jack Hicks, Administra­ tive Librarian and a member of the Board of Trustees, will be available in person to greet you and to address any library issue in the library's front lobby the first Saturday of each month from 9 a.m. to noon. As funds are now restricted, Sarah Long, System Director, hopes that creative solutions may be found to reinstate system services. "We simply do not know yet how deeply these cuts will be felt by our patrons," said Hicks, "but we will keep our community informed." 'The reductions will be painful," said George Ryan, Secretary of State/State Librarian. Some fees for back-up library services may be necessary in Deerfield Library's future. warn Across the Librarian's Desk T he State budget cuts discussed in this newsletter send the omi­ nous and chilling message to librarians across Illinois that services our residents have come to expect and count on will be restricted or eliminated. Deerfield will be directly affected by these State budget cuts since they instantly stratify residents access to library services into the "haves" and the "have nots." We are all aware of the economic and tax problems Illinois and the USA face in general terms, but I am going to try to put it into real terms. Traveling Librarians share "good reads" at the Deerfield Senior Center. From left: Judy Hortin, Baiba Rosenkranz, Sally Margolis, Sally Seifert, Pat Palmer, Martha Sloan. Call us if your group would like a road show. I see libraries as such a strong exten­ sion to education in this country — cutting across age, educational, and (Continued on p. 2) �Librarian’s Desk (Continued fromn p. 1 economic barriers. If we continue to erode our educational base I wonder how this country will ever be competi­ tive again. This all has to do with will power and priorities. I was really disappointed when the NASA launch of the Hubble telescope turned out to be such a fiasco. The Hub­ ble project held so much promise for dis­ covery and technical advancement yet delivered essentially nothing. The will power was there, but the execution was lacking. What has this to do with libraries? Sim­ ply that the squandered Hubble budget would pay the State Library System shortfall for 200 years. I wonder where our priorities have gone? Starting soon, when a young child walks into our library and seeks help that we routinely have offered from State assis­ tance, he will be turned down. When a businessman seeks a magazine article we do not hold, he will go away empty handed. When a college student needs a reference question answered that is beyond our scope, it will remain unan­ swered. All at a time when our residents need more, not less, from our library services. I hope none of the children we turn away would have been a young Thomas Edison or Jonas Salk. I have no crystal ball to discern a glass darkly, but the cavalier way the Secre­ tary of State slashed library service gives me no optimism. Libraries provide so much service and information to so many citizens, yet we remain the lowest taxing component of any government — usually 2% or lower. The politicians will discover that they can cut all of the library money and still not effect any real saving. And at what cost? — shortsighted and illusory sav­ ings and permanent damage to library users in Illinois. Jack Alan Hilicks, Administrative Librarian “Street Smarts” Monday, November 9,7£0 pm The Deerfield Library Annual Report for 1991-92 is available in the library.

If a child is absent without notification, that child's place will be given permanently to a child from the waiting list. I Pre-school storytimes are one of a child's first group experiences. In an 8 week session, a group identity develops which is an important part of that expe­ rience. Therefore, it is essential to fill the group with those who are interested in attending regularly.

I don't know what the patrons anticipated, but I do know they are generally surprised by my answer. I guess they think that I'll be overcome with gloom. Nothing could be further from the truth. The presence of Barnes and Noble, Borders and Crown in our community is great! Books are my life, as they are for most librarians. fit acknowledges Every time I go into those three bookstores, it's like a what we always knew— Deerfield librarian's reunion—about is a book-centered a fourth of the customers are librarians. The more community. P access to books and ideas, the better. There are so many fine books printed every year that we never see in our review media, so many subjects that are only partially available through trade jobbers. Bookstores in the community—this is a librarian's dream—to be a able to handle and browse so many new books. I am proud to be a librarian in a community that three major bookstore chains have targeted as a productive market. We in the library always knew we had great library users, but to have three major conglomerates validate this by locating stores here is a compliment from the savvy marketers of the business world. It acknowledges what we always knew— Deerfield is a book-centered community. The bookstores and the library have similarities and significant differences. We have a deeper and wider collection of fiction, they have a wider spread of newer (Continued on p. 2) Vol. 8, No. 3 JOIN THE CLUB!! READ! For Adults Celebrate America's Diversity June 5Aug. 20!!

Due to popularity we'll accept duplicates! Librarian’s Desk (Continued from p. 1) materials. We overwhelm the bookstores with our reference collections, business directories, indexes, and our wonderful children's department. Competition? The role of the library is so different I certainly don't see competition. More of a complement. We can learn from them in the areas of display, marketing and customer service. The fact that Barnes and Noble has chosen to schedule book discussions and children's story hours head-to-head with our established programs is taken by us as the sincerest form of flattery. The one tool that any of them have—that has obvious and exciting implications for libraries—is Borders' music access computer. I have been asked to rate the three stores, but that would be bordering on an endorsement. Thank you! A Sam and Mary Fosdick Memorial Garden of perennial flowers will be planted in front of the library this summer. Thanks to AAUW, Author Gertrude Rubin, and Junior Women's Club of Deerfield who have been among book donors this year. We don't have a coffee shop (yet) and 1 love that aroma as I browse. But we have two things that are far better within a half a block—the great Deerfield Bakery and that Deerfield institution—Harry's Grill. So when the spirit moves you, visit the three terrific bookstores we have in Deerfield, and then visit the Deerfield Public Library. Great food for mind and body a half block apart. I think you'll agree we stack up pretty well to our commercial bookstore neighbors and we're free. A final note—the firecracker annual report we handed out on July 4,1992 has won the Library Public Relations Council Division I Award as the best (small library) annual report in the country last year. Congratulations to Sally Seifert, our Public Relations Director.

We all know about Abraham Lincoln, but the story of Illinois is an incredible tapestry of people and events that cover far more than only one man. For instance, how many people know that George Rogers Clark marched a Revolutionary War army straight across Illinois to attack the fort at Vincennes, Indiana, from the west? Or, that at its peak, Cahokia Mounds was one of the largest cities in the world? £ My wife and I have enjoyed traveling ** J?ttend the around Illinois visit­ Fall Festival ing places such as at the Village on Kaskaskia, the Sun., Sept. 12** Menard House, Fort Du Chartes, Vandalia, New Salem, Springfield, Cahokia Court House, Bishop Hill, Nauvoo, Galena, Shawnee Town and the Cahokia Mounds—a site of such interna­ tional importance that it has UNESCO protection.

The Library has also added a Visual-Tek magnifying reader, a TDD telephone for communications and will add a new ADA catalog terminal. The Chicagoland Radio Information Service has also provided two radios which offer news from local newspapers for patron use. If you or anyone you know requires any accommodation or if you have a question about ADA compliance, please call the Administrative Librarian at 945-3311. The library maintains a large selection of large print books, books on tape, and has home delivery through our Books-To-Go program. We also can be a contact for the Library of Congress talking book program, The Library staff is always interested in your suggestions.

It was an inspiring moment we should all cherish. The excitement of the moment got me to thinking about what was going through Bill Clinton's head as he stood there and watched this historic moment unfold. Not to worry, I thought, I can read his memoirs and know exactly. Or can I? First-hand presidential intent and insight is not <Ut WAS AN easy to find. INSPIRING MOMENT Many of our presi­ WE SHOULD dents have written ALL CHERISH. M books. Some of them, like Reagan actually have left us with an extensive written history. But do they tell us any­ thing, or do they just record the events, whitewash their consciences, or knock old adversaries? Lyndon Baines Johnson wrote a number of unreflective books. Today, Johnson is quite in vogue for revisionist historians to defend or destroy. What really went through Johnson's thoughts as Viet Nam— his personal Armageddon— played itself out is unrecorded. Harry Truman wrote prolifically, but not really for public consumption. As fond of his writings as I am—for his knowledge of history, his acute observations, his intelli­ gence and grasp of a situation—he puts an oT Missourian spin on each episode he describes, especially when it comes to peo­ ple he didn't like. Smart man, though. (Continued on p. 2) c# DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY Vol. 9, No. 1 New Computer System on PIorizon The library computer catalog consortium (including Deerfield, Skokie, Morton Grove and Waukegan), is in the final phase of selecting a new computer system. The new system will offer increased access to materials, higher speed, greater reliability and features only dreamed of when our system was purchased nine years ago. Library Patrons Approve Car system has served us well, but software and hardware cannot be enhanced to take advantage of technological advances, A system will be selected by December, with conversion and installation to be done in summer of 1994. The finalist systems offer ease of use, intuitive functions, and a high degree of user friendliness. Thanks for your patience In a user satisfaction survey conducted during the summer by Miriam Pollack, of the North Suburban Library System, the Deerfield Library received a 97% approval rating. The range of comments on services and staff was interesting and valuable. The data will be used in our long range planning this winter. The library is in the final stages of renova­ tion to meet requirements of the Ameri­ cans with Disabilities Act. This will include, but not be limited to TDD, self­ opening front doors, handicapped restrooms, handicapped accessible elevator, lowered drinking fountains, and outside ramps. Your continued comments and suggestions are welcomed; we have a suggestion box at the front desk, and Librarian in the Lobby Mondays 7-9 p.m December 6, January 10 and February 7. At that time you may meet informally with one of our board members and with Director Jack Hicks. Due to renovation, we have lost the down­ stairs meeting room for an indefinite period. Since meeting room space is now restricted, community organizations are advised to plan meetings in other loca­ tions. We also have had to temporarily restrict lending of videos as storage space was reduced by elevator construction. News to note: Please bring your library card with you to check out books! If you do not have your library card with you, it will cost a quarter to check out books, effective January 1, 1994. With no library card, you also need to have i.d. and have your name in our computer system. Library users who purchase a non resident card: be aware! The State Legislature has passed a Bill that restricts use of non­ resident fee cards to the library where they are purchased, beginning January 1. Our former costly and unreliable boilers have been replaced by a new computer controlled heating system. We look for­ ward to a toasty winter in the library. It’s tax season again... Yes: Free income tax advice will be offered at the library Tuesdays and Fridays, 1-4 p.m. February 1-April 15. This program is sponsored by the IRS and the AARP.

Prudence Moylan, Professor of History at Loyola University, Chicago, observes that women of 200 years ago struggled with issues similar to those of today. Librarian’s Desk (Continued from v. v Richard Nixon is probably our only president to respect reading and writing—he has given us astonishing insights at events he partici­ pated in. But along with every one else at the time of Watergate, I was struck by how little I knew of Richard Nixon, the man. He seems today a shrouded picture of Dorian Gray. President Bush has written, but his wife's dog book out sold him ten to one. Ronald Reagan's wife has written, Gerald Ford has written, Jimmy Carter has written. I don't think any of these folks have enriched our knowledge or written the definitive history In the Library Thursdays, 10:30 a.m. A12 top Tips for Stress Management Tuesday, January 24,7:30 p.m. Dr. Sally Witt, Psychologist in private practice in Arlington Heights, will include communication, relationships, life style and a relaxation experience in suggesting ways to beat the stress trap.

V January 13 A Good Scent From a Strange Mountain by Robert Olen Butler Selections from this collection of short stories about Vietnamese expatriates living in New Orleans. A Pulitzer Prize Winner. V February 10 The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne Considered one of the masterpieces of American literature, this is an allegorical story of the conflict of personal desire in conflict with a community of laws. Calling All Local Authors!!! The Deerfield Library plans to celebrate our community's own authors during National Library Week April 17-23. We'll honor Deerfield published authors with a spring reception and include your works in our collection. Please contact Martha Sloan or Sally Seifert if you wish to be included. mmm of their own administration. Can we expect Clinton to do better? Also, clouding the issue is the ghost writer. Were any presidents good writers? Read Lincoln's speeches if you doubt his greatness. If you think Roosevelt's writings were ghost written, look at the handwritten corrections on his "Day of Infamy" speech and you see great writing. But if you want to read fantastic mem­ oirs, read Ulysses Grant. He speaks from the page like a hybrid of Lyndon Johnson and James Herriot. Illinois' Grant is a wonderful writer with charm, grace, wit, toughness and a ___________________ ____ ____ __] grasp of everything that was going on around him. However, criticisms of his Presidency say the same things about him—in reverse. His book was a best seller. Will Bill Clinton write the definitve account of what happened in Washington when Israel and the PLO made peace? Probably not, but that doesn't diminish the moment. That account will be written sometime soon, and you will find it here in your library.
