This year it coincides with the renewal of the Library building as well. With the construction project on time and on budget as I write this in Februaiy, staff members are already abuzz, planning for the Grand Reopening scheduled for June. It will be so rewarding to introduce the remodeled, transformed, expanded and revitalized Library to the Deerfield community for the first time. During the next few months our staff members will also prepare to launch the “new” Library—providing new services, programs, materials and features to make your life easier, introduce you to new ideas, and even inspire you. Hot new technologies and concepts will coexist with an improved experience of the more traditional role of the Library, including cozy corners for reading and silent study. While we expect summer’s launch of the new Library space to be impressive, the Library will continue to evolve with additional new services and programs making their debut throughout the fall, winter, and spring. At any time, feel free to share your ideas with outstaff members about what more we can do to make your experience of the Library more personal and meaningful. In closing, I want to thank all of you for your patience while we “camped out” at our temporary quarters in Cadwell’s Corners. We felt warmly welcomed there, and the site worked out great as a small community library for a short time. Soon, though, it will be time to restore your Library experience to its full power.. .and that will be just the beginning of what comes next. Mary Pergander Library Director * . jn% ^0,ume 29, Nutn^ “ New and Expanded Library to Cost Taxpayers Less than Anticipated In January, the Village of Deerfield sold the remainder of the bonds to fund the building project. Due to the low and very advantageous interest rates, taxpayers will be paying about $76-79 each year (based on a home valued at $500,000 at the time of the referendum) rather than the $88 or so we had estimated for the 2010 referendum. This will be a FLAT RATE, annually, for the next twenty years. “We are all veiy proud and pleased that we are able to give Deerfield a newly remodeled and expanded Library for less cost per year than we expected to pay,” said Ken Abosch, Library Board president. “And, of course, our thanks to the Village of Deerfield and its AAA bond rating for making the arrangements for the sale of these bonds on our behalf.” I DIDN’T KNOW THAT! We asked staff to give us the inside track on some frequently over-looked and under-used Library resources. You may be surprised! Andrew L., Multimedia: “The Teens page on the Library's website is a great resource. Take a look at Homework Help. There's infoimation on Tutor.com, plus links to GREAT teen sites like TeenSpace. Check it out." Noreen T., Youth Services: “Museum Adventure Passes are a terrific Library value. Use your Deerfield card to get a pass and getfree admission or a special discount at more than a dozen local museums and attractions." Ted G., Adult Services: “One of my favorite online resources is the Chicago Consumers Checkbook. This is a lot like Angie's list and rates various local businesses and contractors. I needed to purchase a new A/C andfurnace and found a great contractor who gave us a great price by using this resource. Unfortunately; this is one of thefew that you can't access it from home. You need to come into the Library and use one of our computers, but that's a minor inconvenience when you consider the value. ” The Library will be closing just before Memorial Day and reopening in our newly renovated building about a month later in late June. �Voter Registration Courtesy of the League of Women Voters Saturday.

The Billionaire’s Vinegar. The Mystery ofthe World’s Most Expensive Bottle of Wine by Benjamin Wallace Tuesday, March 4, 7:00pm @ Whole Foods Market Deerfield I Adults 21 years and older In 1985, at a heated auction by Christie’s of London, a 1787 bottle of Chateau Lafite Bordeaux, unearthed from a bricked-up Paris cellar and supposedly owned by Thomas Jefferson, went for $156,000 to a member of the Forbes family. But rumors about the bottle soon arose. Why wouldn’t the seller reveal the exact location where it had been found? Was it part of a smuggled Nazi hoard? Did his reticence conceal a dark secret?

The four-panel mural by Janet Austin, titled “Prairie Plants”, is made of stone mosaic and carved ceramic stoneware tiles. The inspiration for the mural came from a project Austin worked on with students from Deerfield High School. In 2010, DHS students participated in a program with the Chicago Botanic Garden by creating an outdoor prairie garden at their school. Austin was hired to help make identification plaques for the plants in the garden. This led her to make the “Prairie Plants” panels to identify many of the native plants and show the importance of healthy soil. The mural first came to the Library as part of the Village of Deerfield Public Art Program, one of 23 pieces selected for the second year of the program. The participating artists, chosen by juiy process, agreed to loan theirs works of art for public display for up to one year. The Library also has on loan pieces by Deerfield artists Anne Kleinerman, Rita Price, Linda Trytek, and Penny Weinberg. Please join us for an open house reception on Wednesday, February 17, 4:30-5:30pm to learn more about the project from the artist, and to give a big “thank you” to our Friends of the Library. * • In addition to the artwork purchased for the Library (see article on the left), we also bought two wooden book displays for Youth Services. • Your memberships can help.

We surveyed Library patrons to gather their feedback about what they want in their Library. The staff and board are proud of the work that has been accomplished. We have increased unique types of items in the collection, added a self-checkout station for ease, adjusted check out periods and added new spaces for our youngest patrons in the Youth Services Department In response to the enhanced emphasis in education for science and math, the Library has responded with an increase in technology programs. Some of our most popular programs have been rooted in the maker technology. The maker movement is a technology-based extension of DIY culture that intersects with computer culture. This focus has coincided with our interest in repurposing some of our space. In 2018, the staff and board began working with Product Architecture & Design, a firm that specializes in creating flexible library spaces. We evaluated various options for reconfiguring our physical collection, and have decided to repurpose the space that houses our DVD and CD collection. We anticipate that we will see this transformation to begin in the summer of 2019. We will be moving the Media Desk from a somewhat hidden position to a more accessible location. This new collaborative workspace will provide our community innovative access to technology. We are excited to invigorate the space, and will provide further details as plans develop. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Deerfield 1959: New Insights At the end of 2018, the Libraiy launched a new website, The Fight to Integrate Deerfield: 60 Year Reflection (deerfieldlibrarj.org/FID). The website documents an important and complex time in the history of Deerfield and the United States. With the website, the Library is presenting an array of special programs and exhibits to illuminate our community’s stoiy. This is not a new story. There were community programs on the 1959 integration crisis for the 40- and 50-year anniversaries, and it has been part of the Deerfield schools’ curriculum for years. This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for our archives, new revelations, and several recent and forthcoming books and projects that feature Deerfield’s integration case. Website The new website includes online exhibits, interviews, discussion guides, booklists, a timeline of events, and our historical archives. This will serve as the online home for our resources for years to come so that, beyond our program series, future generations will have access to the materials. Historical Archives The preservation of our physical archives has been an important component of our 60 year reflection project. Standout items in the newly digitized history collection include newspaper articles quoting Eleanor Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr., anti-integration editorials, and items related to the formation of the pro­ integration Deerfield Citizens for Human Rights. Exhibits 2 Temporary exhibits will feature original primary source materials including propaganda, protest handouts, newspaper articles, and rare photographs on loan from the Art Shay Archives. Exhibits will be on display in several locations throughout the Library for the duration of the program series. for the Library’s permanent collection. The photos represent a documentary and artistic record of the fight over integrated housing in Deerfield. Art Shay Photographs Share Your Story A generous donation from the Friends of the Deerfield Public Libraiy has made possible the purchase of two photographs by longtime Deerfield resident and world-renowned photographer, Art Shay, We are interested in personal stories, memories, contemporary reflections, and physical documents related to the fight to integrate Deerfield.

One of our strongest partners is the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library. In the past 12 years, they’ve raised over $125,000 to supplement library programs and services. Most recently, they donated $25,000 for the laser engraver in the Library’s new MakerSpace. Following are just a few more examples of our many treasured partnerships. The Library has had a long-standing partnership with DPS 109. Our School Outreach Coordinator has cultivated relationships with school librarians, teachers, administrators, and students. With Jewett Park in our backyard, we have worked with the Park District staff on a variety of projects. In fact, at Jewett, there’s a bookshelf by the reception desk stocked with books selected by our Youth Services staff. We have worked with graphic design students at Deerfield High School to design our annual Summer Reading Program logo. This is the sixth year of our partnership. The logos fit our annual theme, and are used both digitally and in print. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with so many talented students. Every spring, we have a food drive to help the West Deerfield Township Food Pantry stock their shelves. Annually, from September through the end of the year, we collect winter coats for Lake County veterans and Rotary, and also take donations for the Toys for Tots program. Public libraries serve their communities in so many different ways. Nurturing our partnerships is one of them. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Create. Innovate. Collaborate.

Your participation in the 2020 Census is extremely important. The results will impact your life for the next 10 years. Census results determine dozens of major representation and allocation issues. This includes • Number of seats in the U.S. House (Illinois is in danger of losing 1-2 seats) • Federal funds (out of a national total of $675 billion) for: - Schools and Libraries - School meal programs - Roads and Highways - Public Transportation - Medicaid - SNAP and WIC - Housing assistance - Community services grants There will be one form per household, and will only take about 10-15 minutes to complete. Be sure to include the littlest people, too. Historically, the most under-counted are the 0-5 crowd! In 2010, it was estimated that one million children were left uncounted. The good news – it will be easier than ever to participate! There will be three ways to submit your Census form: All households should receive an invitation in the mail about March 12 with submission information. Census day is April 1, but you will be able to submit your form starting March 12. If you submit your form before April 8, there will be no need for a Census worker to knock on your door. Don’t delay! • Online / computer or mobile app (first time in history) • Phone • Paper Starting March 12, the Library will have a dedicated computer available for anyone in need of a device for online submission. For more information, visit 2020census.gov. Help us get a complete count!

Carrier Route Presort Deerfield Postal Patron From the Director There is no end to the ways Mayor Harriet Rosenthal will go to support the Deerfield community, including the promotion of library services and resources. We were so lucky to be able to tap her energy and enthusiasm for the cover photo during a busy and demanding time. Mayor Rosenthal has served Deerfield as an elected official for 36 years, starting with six terms as a Village trustee. She was first elected mayor in 2009, serving three terms. Her continued dedication to service has contributed to the growth and quality of life in Deerfield. Also, the Mayor is a living encyclopedia of Deerfield history, process and procedures, and residents past and present. Her institutional knowledge, as well as her kindness, creativity, and good humor will be sorely missed. ___________________________________ As Mayor Rosenthal says, “What a Deal!” Need we point out how much money you save by checking out the latest books, movies, and music from the library? Physical or digital, it’s here for you. As seen on the cover, here are a few popular library resources you might not know about: Consumer Reports: Access articles from the web version of the popular magazine. Compare ratings for cars, computers, mattresses, and more before your next purchase. Mobile Hotspot: Not everybody has easy access to robust internet connectivity. This strong Wi-Fi connector will provide support for school, business, and entertainment. Typewriter: Time travel back, way back, through the magic of the unplugged keyboard experience. Fun for all ages. Ukelele: Bring live music into your home with this wonderful instrument and instruction book. It’s easy, light-weight, and sounds like a smile. You can find all of these items in the DPL catalog. Consumer Reports can be found at deerfieldlibrary.org/online-resources. For the other items listed above, type “Library of Things” in the catalog search box followed by the item name or just start scrolling. Also, feel free to call or email staff for assistance accessing all these special resources. This is just a nibble of the cornucopia of FREE offerings available to you at the Library. All you need is your Deerfield Public Library card. The smartest card in your wallet (or on your cell phone).

One hidden gem that many people might not be familiar with is the fiscally-minded Board of Trustees, who are elected to rotating open positions every two years in local elections. The Board of Trustees serves a very important purpose. They’re responsible for setting policies for the Library to execute. In addition, they are the fiscal stewards of property taxes collected for the Library. The Library is over 97% supported by property taxes. The Library Board takes their responsibility very seriously, carrying out the Library’s mission in the most fiscally prudent manner possible. This past year, the Board actively examined the Library’s finances and funding levels. In 2022, the Library levy will be $46,881 less than 2021 due to refunding and reissuing our debt service bonds. The bond refinance savings of $458,338 over the next 10 years will start in 2022. We worked with the Village of Deerfield to refinance the general obligation bonds from our building renovation project in 2013. I’m grateful for the good stewardship of both the Library Board and the Village of Deerfield. This is how libraries thrive. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director The Library is full of treasures, some “hidden,” some right out in the open. Some are things you can hold, and some live only in the digital realm. A few treasures are new resources, and others have been around for years. Library staff regularly surprise patrons with info about DPL treasures. Here are some staff favorites! of DPL Your Phone = Your Library Card If you have the DPL App on your phone, then you always have your library card in hand.
