True, you don’t need a library card for all these activities, but everyone should have this awesome card in their wallet. Library cards are available for ages 5+! to remind the public that a library card is a way to explore educational and recreational resources. Public libraries are great equalizers.

At Deerfield Public Library, we are very proud of the variety of services we offer our community. Throughout this issue of Browsing, we will be highlighting some of the great things that you can do with your DPL card. We hope you will find something new and unique.

Story on page 2 �From the Director In past columns, I’ve alluded to the planned renovation of our Media area. As this newsletter goes to press, we are about ready to begin construction of our new MakerSpace, a collaborative workspace. First, the shelves will be rotated, and the Media desk will be moved. Later in August, we anticipate full construction to begin, which should last approximately 4-6 weeks. Watch our social media channels and website (deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace) for information about the opening of the new space. The Library is committed to meeting the needs of our community. We undertook this project as part of the Library’s current Strategic Plan. From our research and planning in 2016, we knew there was an interest in increased STEAM-related offerings. The STEAM acronym stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Since 2017, we have continued to add new STEAM programs. These have included our popular 3D printing programs, as well as Tech Drop-ins, that provide a casual opportunity to see new technologies in action.  We have also added non-traditional items, like our Discovery Kits, to the library’s collection. The Discovery Kits focus on STEAM and other creative concepts with hands-on making. A kit is a curated collection of items available around a theme. The new MakerSpace is going to house STEAM-related equipment and provide additional table seating for people to use all hours the Library is open. When the construction is completed, we will have a new, larger service desk across from the book return, which will serve Media and additional patron needs. There is more to share! Turn to page 11 for a rendering of the new space, as well as a list of some of the equipment that we will have available.  Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Local History at Your Fingertips Do you like your Deerfield High School yearbook picture?

We have experienced so many changes in the past few months and it’s hard to predict the future. I am so proud of how the library staff have pivoted to continue to provide so many services for the community. We have continued to offer a variety of programming including story times, art programs, book discussion groups for both adults and children, cooking classes, and special STEAM programs. Our community loves to read! During our building closure, we saw our average monthly e-book checkouts grow from 4,000 to nearly 7,000 checkouts in the past few months! Our digital video services, Hoopla and Kanopy, have also seen a noticeable increase in monthly checkouts. All these electronic services provide materials for adults and children. Our YouTube channel views have also increased from approximately 2,000 for the month to over 5,000 views. And, our podcast featured some great topics: The 1918 Influenza Pandemic and the Chicago Bulls connection to Deerfield. Our contactless curbside pickup has been wildly successful and we look forward to continuing that on some level as we move forward into the new world of living with COVID-19. This was a service that staff had previously discussed implementing and now was the right time to introduce it. COVID-19 is our new reality. We are planning ahead to provide for programs that can be either virtual or in person. We continue to add digital content to our collection. The DPL staff continues to serve our community with imagination, attention to detail, and a warm smile under their face masks. We look forward to the time when we can serve you both outside and inside the building.

We have rediscovered a love for the outdoors. During the past year, we took advantage of the hidden gems of natural beauty in greater Chicagoland. However, this summer, we ventured to Rocky Mountain National Park. I’m thrilled to see my children’s reactions to these huge mountains and their energetic enthusiasm to climb to the top! We’ve spent a fair amount of time on this trip driving, and you really get a sense of the vastly different landscape of our country. Of course, I had to pay a visit to a local library as well. Sure, we all serve different communities, but I’ve found in my decades-long career that we all aim to best serve our unique communities. During my conversation with the librarian, I was struck by our approach to similar services. This particular library had a Library of Things collection and they too can’t keep their Wi-Fi hotspots on the shelf! For this trip, I relied heavily on our Library’s Libby and Hoopla apps. If you’re unfamiliar with these services, I can’t recommend them enough. As a librarian, I am thrilled that my kids also love to read. (I think if they didn’t, my “librarian” card would be revoked!) They are thrilled with the comic book selection on Hoopla. On this trip, access to e-books and videos was a lifesaver. It warmed my heart to see my kiddos downloading their books to read on the plane. I’ve always equated fall with a new beginning. We continue to look forward and have learned from the past year. We welcome seeing our community inside the building, while reading and supporting each other.

PLACE Programs: PLACE stands for Public Library Access and Community for Everyone.

See page 3 for details about the monthly evenings of friendship and fun. Youth & Teens Read-Along Collection: This brand new collection will include Playaway picture bookpacks, as well as Wonderbooks and Vox Books. These new titles combine a traditional printed picture book with a built-in audio recording, perfect for kids who can’t read to themselves yet, or for anyone who wants to listen to a story! Each book can be replayed dozens of times without being recharged. And don’t worry about recharging them yourself—we’ll take care of that when it is returned. Launchpads: A great way to keep kids engaged and learning all year round. Each tablet comes pre-loaded with themed educational games and activities for specific age groups. Stop by and check them out, and feel free to ask the Youth staff for recommendations. Stay & Play: To support safe play, loose toys and games are still put away. Instead, while in the library, one family group at a (cont. from page 2) time can use a Stay & Play box. There are many different themed boxes with a variety of creative activities. You might want to check out one of the boxes with kinetic sand! The boxes are kept at the Youth Services desk, and are quarantined after every use. Teen Book Discussions: Deerfield teens continued to be active readers throughout the pandemic. Book group regulars Liam and Lucas Ford shared that the move from in-person to a virtual platform still provided a fun time and generated lots of interesting discussions. When asked for a book recommendation from the past year, they gave four thumbs up for Black Wings Beating by Alex London. DPS 109 Partnership: Literary Scavenger Hunt! DPL School Outreach Coordinator Kary Henry partners with DPS 109 school librarians throughout the school year on a variety of engaging projects. During this unique school year, one new online adventure Wilmot students (grades 3-5) got to participate in was a literary scavenger hunt! During the live 30 minute online hunt the rules were: Don’t leave the house to find the object, don’t take anything breakable, and put everything back where it belongs. After Kary showed the cover of a book popular in their school library, and told them the related object to find, students ran to find a fitting example and back to the screen to share. What did they go looking for? One example, for a book about the Titanic, the students had to find something that could float. One of the most surprising items presented: When the students went in search of something that makes noise, one student returned with his baby brother! Everyone got a laugh out of that – even the little brother! This is just a handful of what we have to offer. But you library lovers know that! Feel free to be in touch with any questions.

Hats off to all our wonderful S.T.A.R. volunteers for making the library’s summer so productive and fun! Faced with a different type of volunteering than in previous years (virtual and touch-free), teens lent their talents to creating art pieces, including book covers, writing blog articles and Instagram Spotlight reviews of books, and putting kits together for programs. Ten teens served as Book Buddies, partnering with a young student and reading together on Zoom. Our teen volunteers really helped to color our world with reading this summer! Many thanks to the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library for their sponsorship of a huge rainbow of summer projects. This included sponsorship of the month-long Queer Poem-aDay project (deerfieldlibrary.org/queerpoemaday), supplies for the Kindness Garden kits, and prizes for the Summer Reading Program. Their support made it possible to provide our community with a wide variety of new insights and experiences. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I had a Trapper Keeper that had adorable puppies in which I could keep all my 5th grade assignments in impeccable order. Also, my mother was persuaded to buy me some fun glittery Lisa Frank stickers and pencils. I still occasionally pick up a new glittery pen when I take my own kids back to school shopping. The new school supplies motivated me to get ready for the upcoming school year. Best wishes to students of all ages for an engaging and inspiring school year. Fall seemed like the perfect time to survey our community about library services. It has been a few years since DPL underwent a strategic planning process and I’m excited to announce that we are commencing the process this fall! On the back cover, there is a QR code that you can scan to take a quick survey to provide us feedback on what we can do better to serve you. You can also access the survey at https://deerfieldlibrary.org/survey. Your responses will help shape our goals and budgets for years to come. DPL’s mission is to serve our community in the best possible way. After all, we are a public library and exist to serve our public. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director The MakerSpace: Your Imagination Station In November 2019, we opened the doors to the brand new DPL MakerSpace. We were visited by many curious and creative patrons before we had to shut the doors just five months later, due to the pandemic. Soon after the closure, we were able to arrange for patrons to submit projects that staff would process. When complete, the projects could be picked up curbside. Eventually, we could have one person in at a time to use the equipment. Now, we are happy to report, our doors are fully open for appointments and walk-ins. And, oh, the projects you all have been dreaming up! At the point that Jackie Guagliardo was dreaming up party plans for her soon-to-be dentist daughter’s graduation, the previous issue of this newsletter landed in her mailbox. Jackie read about the cornucopia of creative options, and quickly made an appointment to come in and learn more about the MakerSpace. “The staff was wonderful about working through the many ideas with me,” said Jackie. “Once I learned about all the tools available, I came up with a few more ideas. The staff patiently taught me how to use the equipment, and it was loads of fun.” Jackie is pictured with a few of the party pieces. The vinyl cutter was used to make the framed table signs, as well as the white vinyl teeth on the placeholders. The laser engraver was utilized to engrave “daughter info” in the wooden bases for picture frames. The laser engraver was also used to engrave special messages and illustrations on water bottles used at each table. 2 Just ahead of Valentine’s Day, Ron Swidler created a Jackie Guagliardo and a few of her party pieces created in the MakerSpace. silhouette of his family on his computer (dogs included, of course) as a gift to his wife. Following that success, Ron returned to the MakerSpace with designs of his three brothers’ families to create a collection of silhouettes for his mom’s 80th birthday. The vinyl cutter and the MakerSpace were just the tools and team he needed. The silhouettes were cut from matte black vinyl, then mounted and framed as beautiful keepsake birthday gifts. For an upcoming 60th birthday party, a patron used the embroidery machine to create special napkins, the laser engraver for customized shot glasses, and the button machine for…buttons! What about personalized baby shower gifts, you ask? Bring in some onesies and we’ll show you how to use the vinyl cutter to create iron-on vinyl transfers. Yep, we’ve got the iron, too. A huge birthday (or graduation) banner always adds a spark to a celebration. That’s just what our large format printer is here for, and so much more! Dust off those boxes full of slides, photos, cassettes, and VHS tapes. Our popular Digital Media Lab has all you need to convert that old technology into accessible digital files. With the reopening, we expanded the MakerSpace creative team, so there is always someone here to train you on the tools that will make your ideas a reality. In addition, we have a large offering of classes for enthusiasts at all levels. See page 7 for the upcoming list of programs. Full details about the MakerSpace equipment and use, hours of operation, and access to the online reservation form are available at deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace. Ron Swidler used the vinyl cutter to transform his silhouettes into framed family gifts. �Adult Programs For full program descriptions, visit the DPL events calendar at deerfieldlibrary.org, click on “Programs”.

In Septem­ ber there will be a grand opening celebration. The reading area will be named: Thomas E. Parfitt Fiction Room. Parfitt retired from the library board in 1993 after 22 years of service; he was library board president for 20 of those years. The library board Building Com­ mittee includes Sue Benn, Diane Kraus and Yvonne Sharpe. They said, “The room will be warm, inviting and class)'. . Comfortable furnishings in earthtones and wood will be featured, but the greatest element is a lot of light with a relaxing garden view.” The remodeling, in x planning stages since 1992, will provide 23% additional floor space and 20% increased shelf space. It will be paid for entirely by Tax Increment Financing from the Vil­ lage of Deerfield at no extra cost to taxpayers. Y Magazine Index Rdded lo Online Catalog You can now access a magazine in­ dex database called Infotrac 2000 from any Dynix terminal in the library. There are three databases available: Business and Company Profile ASAP, Health ASAP and Magazine Index Plus (for current affairs, consumer information, travel, arts, entertainment). Coverage is from 1992 to the present. Some articles are citation only, some have abstracts, and some are full text. Librarians will be happy to assist you in your search. Across the Librarian’s Desk Now that the Age of Espionage is ebbing and the Age of Lawyers is fully upon us, I wonder what the next great themes for fiction will be? Publishers have so confused form for content and occupation for char­ acter they no longer seem to know the difference. The trend I see in popular fiction is a continuous reduction in literate writing, the etching of character, compelling dialogue, or even plot. What has replaced these ele­ ments of literature is action, sex (and I don’t mean gender), and a downscaling of the intelligence quo­ tient to about the 6th grade level. Where is the literate adult fare that is not murder, spies, or lawyers? What’s next? I'll bet it will be software gurus. Fascinating. Wolff Elected Board On April 4 Bill Seiden and David Wolff were each elected to a six year term on the Deerfield Library Board of Trustees.Wolff, a manufacturers' representative in metal forming, said, “I wish to thank the Deerfield voters for returning me to the Library Board of Trustees for a sec­ ond term. I shall work with the board to continue the outstanding level of service to our patrons within the fiscal constraints of a limited budget.” Seiden, an Illinois C.RA., is a retired corporate executive now doing limited consulting. Seiden is also committed to serving all of Deerfield’s residents “working with other board members to arrive at meaningful decisions and to provide excellent services for the community.” As disappointing as the trend in books has been, it has been outdone by the film industry.

New residents are invited to stop in for a library card. Please bring 2 forms of i.d. showing Deerfield address. Card is free if you live in incorporated Deerfield; the state sets a $150 fee for non residents and mandates that they borrow only at the library where they purchased their card. the wonderful musicals of the 1940’s and the great “adult" film noir that defined films for so long? The real question is where are the scripts that challenge and delight, where are the themes and motifs that go along Continued on page 2 �Librarian's Desk o u (continued from page 1) with good writing? When did the term “adult” come to mean skin? I remember being scared stiff by Cary Grant and a glass of milk; now it takes chain saws, body parts and gallons of blood to achieve an effect. Actually what we are seeing is the precursor of a non-literate culture. Our country is becoming visual instead of verbal with kids watching too many thousands of hours of numbing television and not reading books...and not knowing the dif­ ference. Hence we have poor scripts, and non­ literate books. Lawyers are seen as fascinating characters in far too much fiction. It appears we are abrogating our culture to publishers and me­ dia and movie moguls who say “..no one reads, only dumb kids go to the movies, trash for the masses." We know this not to be totally true. Barnes and Noble and Borders validate the fact that Deerfield has a literate and reading population. We look for books and mature films that inspire and challenge us. As an antidote, it is fortunate that we live in an area of affordable theatre, not just the Shubert and Goodman but the small ones, the Organic Theatre, Next, Steppenwolf, Northlight, The Re­ mains—the list is gratifyingly long. But even though we read, it seems that media producers are intent on reducing what is available to the low­ est common denominator. Reductio adAbsurdum. Apparently it makes money and that’s all that seems to count today. The O.J. Simpson trial cov­ erage is just a symptom of the widespread con­ sumer entertainment disease—simple, mindless, violent and visual.

It is ironic that we call for values and respon­ sibility from any individual in this age of collective irresponsibility. We ask for less violence on our streets but pay to wallow in it in books and films. We demand accountability but we don’t practice O it ourselves. Maybe that’s the real loss—our own honesty and integrity. I have always been a firm believer that today is “the good old days." But when it comes to books and films, looking back­ wards you see adult books and films that chal­ lenged, entertained, inspired and enchanted... made by people who read, wrote, and thought. The book that I am recommending this month is Rocking the Babies by Linda Raymond. This is a book that makes you believe in people, reaffirm real family values and inspires our highest in­ stincts. Set in a hospital, the book examines those who provide care and love to drug addicted newborns.

Lower level space now used for offices, meeting room and boardroom will be merged with the down­ stairs lobby to provide an additional 25% floor space, and 20% increased shelfspace. In response to patron re­ quests, the remodeling will provide a quiet, spacious, reading area to browse new books, read and consult the Reader Services Librarian, ex. ^ This project has been in the ■Slllm planning stages for \n| l I three years.

Library service will not be interrupted dur­ ing the construction. A summer completion date is anticipated. Lov Business forecasting has always been done in five- year increments. With the acceleration of technology that threshold is now two or three years, with many unforeseen changes skewing the balance. We are now five years from the 21 st century and the question is what the new cen­ tury will hold for all of us. The mood of society today—in spite of our economic well being— seems to be that wherever it is we are, is not where we want to be, and we are not comfort­ able about it. I see change coming in areas be­ yond our control: working women, age of the population, Russia and computers. Simple demographics tell us that the workforce will be primarily female in 2001. That clearly means no return to the 1950’s mom-athome image we hear touted as “traditional fam­ in #< Infochcannel The Village of Deerfield’s Infochannel is up and running.

It has taken over 25 years to put Mom into the workplace and it is questionable if she will ever return to apron and kitchen. Demograph­ ics also tell us that our population is aging sig­ nificantly. I read that by 2010 we will have 50,000 citizens over 100 years old when we now have less than 5,000. A majority of our citizens will be over 50 years of age in 2010. Families will change. Continued on page 2 Tuesday, April 11,7p.m. “Thousands of people are having online affairs and these sometimes spill over into their real lives. I be­ lieve this is the beginning of a cul­ ture change in our society and will alter our future attitudes!” says Chicago author Deanna Warren who has published her first book Love On Line— an informative and hu­ morous guide to online “chat”. She will present an upbeat over­ view of how to get up and run­ ning online, the language and the nuances. Deanna teaches a course “Hitching a Ride on the Information Superhighway” at the College of Lake County and has also published articles and poetry. Holiday Closings! Holiday closings at the library are limited to the major holidays. We will be closed: Easter Sunday, April 16 and Memorial Day, Monday, May 29. We will also close summer Sundays beginning May 28. �Librarian's Desh (continued from page 1) Can we project by looking back? Peering back five years we see the fall of the Berlin Wall and the disintegration of the Soviet Union—monumental changes that no one ex­ cept lunatics predicted. Certainly now the challenge is to learn to live productively with the strange, hybrid society that was spawned and nurtured in the Soviet hothouse. This is a major challenge not to be taken lightly—as elemental as water, land and air. The hatreds forged on the anvil of the Cold War must give way if both former rival superpowers are to regenerate themselves. Computers and software use have qua­ drupled in the past five years, with the hot companies and monoliths alike responding to market-driven pressures that have drastically altered the computers and the corporate cli­ mate. Correspondingly we have seen a sharp acceleration in science and medicine. Supercomputers, like the Cray, will lead to profound discovery in all fields of research. Fine. Now we have the INTERNET which has had and will continue to have a tremendous impact on society. Until now. computers have just counted, sorted and analyzed data—but with cyberspace and INTERNET we are ask­ ing computers to assume the basic human social function of communication. The great and frightening line in Kubrick's 2001 was. "Oh. this is so exciting" when in fact the lives of 2001 scientists were bland as mush and as dull as gruel. Cyberspace has the poten­ tial to be more deadening than television, more corrosive to the spirit than drugs. Most creative ideas come from the fertile minds of one person; real genius does not flow from committees and focus groups. We are now to believe that the creative process is going to be altered by networks and shared data. To visualize and conceive an idea is the hard part; a committee can talk anything to death. This is not to say I want to return to the era of Victorian engineering—elegant drawings and mathematics done in script by pen and ink—but I doubt that creative thought itself is in transition and we delude ourselves if we al­ low an electronic servant to become cultural master and destroyer. Virtual reality....what's wrong with reality? Distance is well known to lend enchant­ ment.

Located on the lower level of the library, the room houses the fiction collection of 23,331 including large print, mysteries, and science fiction.
