Some of our readers may recognize my opening line from Lady Whistledown’s writing that features prominently in the Netflix series Bridgerton. I have used these past winter months and rainy spring months to catch up on shows like Bridgerton. But, now, oh, the promise of warm weather and sunshine is what is getting me outside. Reading outside makes me outdoorsy! This issue features all of our exciting activities around this year’s Summer Reading Program theme, “Read Beyond the Beaten Path.” Our amazing staff has developed creative and engaging programs for all ages. A 2021 study found that students lost between 17-34% of their learning from the previous year over the summer. Our summer program encourages students to keep reading! And, remember that listening to an audiobook is also reading. Our youngest patrons don’t get to have all the fun. Adults can participate in our year long program, Read Around the World. We have monthly reading challenges based on the world’s 24 time zones. Our Adult Services staff have created reading lists that you can find on our website or at our service points. I try to be outside as much as possible in the summer months. This upcoming summer will be no exception. My family has some vacations planned that include hiking, and even camping! We will, of course, be reading beyond the beaten path. Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director Read Beyond the Beaten Path: Adventure, Discovery and New Horizons Experience the joy that awaits when you travel with a book down a road not yet taken.

Summer is here. I invite you to maximize your summer enjoyment with one of the many amazing items in our Library of Things (LOT) collection. If you’re craving an outdoor movie experience, check out a backyard movie bundle. This was an addition to our LOT collection during the summer of 2020 and it was so popular! We have everything you need to host a backyard movie party. The kit comes with a DVD player, a blow-up screen, a blower fan, all the appropriate cords and remote controls, and plastic stakes. Don’t forget to check out one of our new movies too! While we don’t supply the popcorn and candy for your backyard movie night, we have the big stuff you need. We have a variety of backyard games like cornhole, outdoor Jenga, bocce ball, giant Tic-Tac-Toe, and checkers. We recently added a very popular game, Slammo (aka Spikeball). You’ve seen it…players have a little ball that you slam on a small net. We also have added Yard-zee, huge dice with a dry-erase scorecard. Pickleball sets are available to check out for your next trip to a Deerfield Park District pickleball court. Explore the night skies with one of our telescopes, and learn about butterflies and bugs with a nature kit. Finally, we have travel kits with all the things you need to keep the kiddos entertained on your upcoming trip. For our friends that are spending time in the water, we have a fishing magnet. This is a multi-use magnet that is designed for fishing or recovering lost objects underwater. It’s a bit unusual! Enjoy your summer! As always, please feel free to reach out to me at amy@deerfieldlibrary.org with any questions or comments.

Winners will receive a gift card to the Deerfield Park District or a year-long membership to one of the following Chicago Museums: Adler Planetarium, Art Institute of Chicago, Field Museum, Museum of Science and Industry, Shedd Aquarium. National research from Dominican University finds that students who participate in public library summer reading programs: • Scored higher on reading achievement tests at the beginning of the next school year than those who did not participate. • Spent more time reading over the summer, read more books, were well prepared for school in the fall, and read more confidently. • Reading even just six books over the summer will help keep your child’s mind sharp. Encourage the young people in your life to participate in the Summer Reading Program!

That inspired the introduction of this new occasional feature to let you get to know a bit more about the amazing people that work here. Enjoy! • Currently watching: The Night Agent on Netflix, but my favorite shows are Last Kingdom and Outlander. I always return to The Lord of the Rings film series. • Fun fact: I have a degree in Architectural Drafting from my home country, Colombia. One of my hobbies is making custom greeting cards out of parchment. I love dancing and listening to music – English or Spanish – I don’t discriminate. Patricia • Working for DPL the past five years has been like visiting a fair, lots of fun and something new and exciting around every corner. The staff is so friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. Library Aide • Currently watching: The Mandalorian, Season 3. • Fun fact: I have a PhD in Old Testament studies from Trinity International University, and I teach Old Testament courses part-time for Trinity and Wheaton College. I am a native Texan, who loves the library, barbecue and football (especially the Dallas Cowboys!). By the way, did you know that Texas used to be its own country? • I started at DPL in 2013 as an assistant when I was a student at Trinity. Working with the public was the perfect job to balance with my studies, and in 2018, I accepted the promotion to my current position. Lance Patron Services Assistant Manager • Currently reading: Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White. • Fun fact: During my free time, I enjoy doing cross stitch projects. Right now, I’m working on a cross stitch of the beloved dog of a DPL colleague. Sam • I was hired in 2018 as a Library Aide, and soon after enrolled to earn my Masters in Library Science from the University of Illinois. Now I maintain our movie, music and video game collections, as well as the Library of Things collection. I enjoy defying the expectations of the things our community can check out from a library! Multimedia Librarian • Currently watching/playing: The Last of Us • Fun Fact: 90% of my free time is spent playing Dungeons & Dragons. My favorite class is cleric! Also, you may see me running around town training for my next half marathon. • I’ve been with the library for the past decade, and am excited for the next decade! If you’ve ever had a local history question, I probably found the answer for you! Anne Adult Services Assistant Manager • Currently reading: The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien, and The Complete Works of St. John of the Cross. • Fun fact: I studied Near-Eastern Archaeology and enjoy going on excavations in Israel. • My favorite thing about the library is our patrons. Life can be tough, and we work hard to meet you where you are at, and help where we can. This can include sitting down together for one-onone tech help, and also my monthly delivery of materials for our homebound patrons. Chase 10 Adult Services Associate � • Currently reading: Aniana del Mar Jumps In by Jasminne Mendez. • Fun fact: I knit and crochet, and the first knitting project I ever finished was an exact replica of the scarf that Tom Baker wore as Doctor Who – it’s a 13 foot long scarf! • As one of the newer staff members, I really have enjoyed my time at DPL and felt welcomed right away. My favorite thing about my role is that I get to help with collection development for the juvenile books and graphic novels. I joke that I still only read kids books for my job, but really it’s my favorite age range. The only reason I met my 100 book reading goal last year was because I read 50% graphic novels! Emily Youth Services Assistant Manager • Currently reading: an Advanced Reader Copy (pre-publication) of Lei and the Fire Goddess by Malia Maunakea. • Fun fact: I love creating handmade cards; last year, I sent out 100 cards! Kary • I’ve been doing storytimes and working with the amazing early childhood educators in Deerfield for 15 years now! It’s also a joy to collaborate with the DPS 109 librarians and staff and do booktalks and other programs for the students. We’re lucky to have such wonderful educators in Deerfield. School Outreach Coordinator • Currently listening to: Three Feet High And Rising by De La Soul. • Fun fact: I am a musician, and have been active in the punk music scene for almost 30 years. • For my first decade at DPL, I worked in Adult Services and probably answered a question or two for you at the Media desk. I also coordinated Books to Go for our homebound patrons. I jumped over to the MakerSpace last year, and am having loads of fun with our staff and creative visitors.

We love welcoming new members to assist us with our primary goal – improving the programming and offerings at our local library. The Friends have funded a wide variety of projects, including Memory Kits, new browsing bins in the children’s section, furniture upgrades, and the upcoming summer reading program. None of that would be possible without the support of our wonderful community. For more information, visit our website. Are your bookshelves overflowing? If so, consider donating books in good condition to us! The Friends run Deerfield’s only (used) book store, and it is all based on contributions from people like you! All genres of books are accepted as well as DVDs and video games, but we’re always especially on the lookout for gently used cookbooks and children’s books. All of the proceeds from our sales are directed back to library projects. Our next meeting will be June 26 at 7:00 p.m. in the library – all community members are welcome!

Participants met multiple times with DPL staff, providing the students an opportunity to learn about the Library’s summer program, discuss their artistic vision, and receive feedback throughout the design process.

High Tech Speeds Periodicals Search While the Reader's Guide and the newspaper indexes are still options for searching for magazine and newspaper articles, the library now has a computer system called "InfoTrac" which allows patrons to search quickly for articles on specif­ ic topics from 1100 current maga­ zines and some newspapers. Each article description contains the headline of the story, the name New Officers Elected to Board Across the Librarian s Desbi Librarians are inextricably bound to books in their personal and professional lives, yet it is seldom that librarians are writers, or get to see a book in an early stage of production. This is especially true of reference books, since they are generally contract work done by very large publishers. Five or six reference book publishers dominate the field: Bowker, Gale, Wilson, Britannica, Dun and Bradstreet, and Standard and Poors. It is very unusual for an author or publisher to create a reference book that is new in concept, brilliant in organiza­ tion, with a scope and depth that ex­ of the publication, author, pages and length. Also, InfoTrac will sug­ gest related articles. You can print out this information (not the whole article)! If Deerfield does not own the magazine you need, we may be able to get a photocopy for you from an­ other library. ceeds existing works. Reference books by their very nature are cold and evolu­ tionary in their own way, written by professional writers who are more orga­ nizers and indexers than they are au­ thors. I feel privileged to have seen a book, early on, that contradicts this de­ scription. Two local authors, Imy Wax and Mary Beth Kravets have written a reference book — The K & W Guide: Colleges and the Learning Disabled Student that represents (Continued on p. 3) Tom Parfitt has stepped down as President of the Library's Board of Trustees after serving in this capaci­ ty for 20 years.

THE LIBRARV W/SHES YOU A HE HAP»yH NlVnM! �FRIENDS UPDATE Mission The mission of the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library is to provide support to the Library through funds, human resources and the sponsoring of community programs. Two Years Young In late 1989 a handful of community members organized Deerfield’s Friends of the Library. Over the past 24 months supportive, civic-minded village residents have swelled the Friends’ membership to over 40. With everyone’s contributions of time and energy, the Friends have been successful in carrying out its mission through fundraising events, volunteer support and education programs. May 1990 — Art Auction To make room for book shelves, the Library had to remove its display of art prints and end the service of loaning them. The Friends held an auction of the 175 prints as its first official fundraising event. October 1990 — Agatha Christie Centennial Friends sponsored a community program to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Agatha Christie. Preceding the lecture, the Friends hosted an authentic English tea. January 1991 — Library support Friends members volunteered to help at the Library-sponsored lecture and book sign­ ing for Shelby Yastrow, author of Undue Influence. April 1991 — Children’s Program Friends sponsored a children’s folk song fest and lively hoe down featuring Jenny Armstrong. July 1991 — Family Days Friends provided volunteers to help Library staff distribute lemonade during the 4th of July activities. August 1991 — Trunk Sale Community members are invited to fill their cars with all their “treasures” and sell them in the Library parking lot. The trunk sale is an annual fundraiser for the Friends who rent the Library’s parking spaces to sellers. Into the Future January 1992 — Children’s Program Punch and Judy come to Deerfield. (See this issue’s calendar.)

Experience a typical beginner gymnas­ tics class from practicing fundamen­ tals to exercising on the rings, balance beams and trampoline. the very best of what reference pub­ lishing should be. Written from the heart, with professional experience, this book will become a classic — used by parents, students, librarians and counselors alike. The K & W Guide fills a need and answers questions that no other book does. This is exceptional reference writing. I was, and still am, astonished by their effort. I have never seen a refer­ ence book in its first edition that has the content, scope, authority, organi­ zation and coverage that this book has. That two first-time authors could produce a book this comprehensive and discriminating is truly an accom­ plishment. When the authors showed me the book for the first time, I sus- pect they had an idea of just how out­ standing it is. Now we all know. Library Journal, the flagship of library magazines, has just given the book a starred review — the highest they give. A rave, it compares the K& W Guide to Lovejoy's Guide and finds it a superior book. I am sure it will be a standard reference book used in every library in this country. I am also sure that the authors will reap the re­ ward and recognition they deserve. The best part is that the parents and stu­ dents with learning disabilities will find the reassurance, support, hope and guidance they need. Well done, Imy and Mary Beth! Jack Alan Hicks, Administrative Librarian igmpa—ib Antoine Poncet Sculpture... Deerfield Mayor Bernard Forrest has arranged for the library to own an Antoine Poncet sculpture which has graced the entrance of Sara Lee.

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. I wonder. S1&S0KTS [*0K)(^ II -y BookIn Discussions the Library Thursdays -10:30 a.m. December 10 - The Bean Trees, by Barbara Kingsolver.

The many children I helped twenty years ago are now adults and give me my greatest satisfaction. I wonder if the next twenty years will go past as quickly as the first?

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.

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.

Dynix At Your Service! Our “mascot” butler welcomes you to the new Dynix computer sys­ tem. We officially went online with our new system on November 1 and patron reactions are positive! The colorful new screens replace our “old” GEAC computer catalog and circulation system which served us well for almost 10 years. (We eliminated our card catalog 6 years ago.) The faster, more powerful sys­ tem continues to be in a consor­ tium with Skokie, Morton Grove and Waukegan Libraries. The Dynix system is very “user friendly” and flexible, with - wider access promised in the future. This should include access to numer­ ous periodical indexes, community resource File, gateways to remote databases and access to Internet.

That the game reflects us for good or ill, and that baseball could only be an American game. A charm­ ing TV series but a flawed theory. Reflecting on the 1994 baseball strike that ruined the best season in- years—the only one in ninety with no World Series—I could be inclined to agree with Burns, only in reverse. Baseball as a perfect metaphor for American life: grasping, greedy, selfish men lacking in any semblance of culture, with no knowledge of his­ tory. Those who grab mopey without regard for others, the eventual outcome of a project, or even how it looks to the outside world.

Americans at our worst, not our best, ruined the season of 1994. After twenty-one years of providing library service to Deerfield residents in a real- life not a fictional setting, I have found Deerfield residents to be none of the above. In contrast, I have seen that their hearts and minds are in the right place. 12,700 cardholders in a village of 17,000 tells me this is a community of readers, intellectually alert, aware of poli­ tics, socially concerned, involved with our kids, and philosophical in outlook. Social projects, caring about others, and a long view of history characterizes the people I know in this town. Is Deerfield a micro­ cosm of the rest of the country? I think so. Is that a metaphor that would ruin the baseball season of 1994? I think not. But it has also been my experience that events in our lives, large and small, are often shaped by what is worst, not what is best, for us. Mean- spiritedness and disparity often come to the fore and win out in decision making. Wronghead­ edness often shouts down reason and important decisions can be based on caprice and whim, and only our hindsight is perfect. Maybe the men who ruined the 1994 season did mean well but by a mis­ guided attempt achieved something nobody wanted.

A group of anti-intellecutal, small-mind­ ed nobodies with a lot of money wrecked the season and we all yawned. It is said that humor is the only trait that separates man from the rest of the animal kingdom and that it protects us from catastrophe. Sometimes it’s hard to laugh. The book I am recommending this month is The Lawyer’s Chambers by Lowell Komie. This collection of short sto­ ries is Lowell's third book and I recom­ mend it highly. If you haven't read Lowell Komie you are missing one of the best of today's writers. Mr. Komie is not just a good writer, or a talented one, Lowell is a great writer whose stories touch at the heart of all of us.

Judy received her undergradu­ ate degree in history from the Uni­ versity of Wisconsin, and Masters Degree in library science from the University of Pittsburgh. She was formerly a Youth Services Librarian at Northbrook Public Library, and at Highland Park Library and served as Head of Youth Services in Pittsburg, Kan­ sas. Judy said, “I am happy to be here and hope to continue to en­ gage, entertain, and educate young people of all ages with our materials and services.” 1, Number 2 My father used to bring home stray cats, and I think he used the same process to choose his friends. He brought home a cat that only had a stump for a tail. Forever called “Tailless,” a car ac­ cident had deprived him of his tail and no end of vets could heal that stub right. The second cat “Meowser’s" ears had been frozen off, leaving only a hint that they should have been there in the first place. We felt sorry for them, but we loved them because they were great cats. My Dad’s friends fit right in there with those cats. Librarian in Hie Lobby I have no clear idea what my Dad saw in those guys. Now entering a fourth year, our suc­ cessful Librarian in the Lobby offers the opportunity for patrons to meet with library administrators to speak informally of library concerns. The director and board members listen to and follow through on patron suggestions, when feasible. Librar­ ian in the Lobby will be offered Wednesday evenings from 7:309 p.m. December 6, January 3 and February 7. They weren’t fishing pals, or drinking buddies. They had no other common linkage except they were all as poorly equipped to cope with life as the cats. Some of them even had frozen off appendages One specimen had thirteen junked Corvairs and nine operating motorcyles. I could but I won’t name names. There was the guy with fifteen dogs, who we called “Doggie.” There was the guy who ran a saloon with a giant live frog in the window, there was the well digger who had six wives by the time he was thirty, there continued on page 2 he Reference Department will offer classes on use of the online computer catalog and Infotrac gateway to magazine articles and company information. (This is not a class on using a per­ sonal computer). Please reserve space by calling Reference, or sign­ ing the meeting reservation book. Classes will be held Saturdays at 10 a.m. on January 13, January 27, February 10 and February 24. Here are some inside tips on use of the computer catalog: Key Word Searching—especially helpful when you know only partial information about a title (example: you want to Find the series of books with “gourmet” in the title-written by a man named “Smith.” American Heritage Electronic Dic­ tionary—to check spelling and defi­ nition of words and abbreviations. InfoTrac: Business and Company ASAP, Magazine Index Plus, Health Index Plus—InfoTrac in­ dexes periodical articles by subject and includes the full text of some articles. Dial-up Access—to our computer catalog-from home or business. (Note: the InfoTrac databases are available in library only.) Young children can L search the library's j holdings on a specialized “kids' computer catalog” in the Youth Services department. *=■ “* �Librarian's DOSli (contined from page 1) was the fisherman who could call up wild fish that lived by the end of his dock, the root beer bottler whose homemade soda “you opened outside and caught it in a pail across the yard," there was the cheesemaker with the long raft of floating oil drums that featured rocking chairs for the fishermen, the car mechanic who did dentistry. I don’t think he felt sorry for them, though a lot of other people did, and I don’t think he loved them all like we did the stray cats. I do know he thought they were “color­ ful" to use his own word. What those friends came down to was simple. Acceptance. Don't judge anyone by what you see on the outside, friends are friends, who you know are your friends, you stick up for your friends whoever they are, and friends don't judge friends. Also, rural Minne­ sota did not give you many choices, though among his group there was an All-American basketball player, a WWII Marine Corps fighter Ace, the best pheasant hunter in Washington County, a sheriff, a priest, a guy covered com­ pletely with naval tattoos and a Carnegie LifeSaving Gold Medal winner. They were differ­ ent but never boring. I chose my friends a lot differently, and I have a far less interesting group to talk to than my Dad did. I am afraid that this is endemic to suburban life. Everyone I know is responsible, has all his body parts, works for a living, has college degrees, speaks perfect English in complete sentences, and has straight teeth. Having been back to Minnesota nine times in the last two years has really made me wonder who Garrison Keillor talks about when he de­ scribes Minnesota, because I don't meet the old-time characters there anymore than I do here. However, it is a serious mistake to think everyone is “just like us." The book I am recommending this month is In Confidence by Anatoly Dobrynin. As So­ viet Foreign Minister he was a participant in most of the Cold War's great confrontations. Dobrynin knew all the international players from Khrushchev to Reagan and sheds a clear light on all the events that shaped our time. The Bay of Pigs, Vietnam and Star Wars are all illuminated by a distinctly different perspec­ tive than we ever got from our newspapers or television Duped by his own government about the missiles in Cuba, cajoled by LBJ to end the Vietnam war in 1965, Dobrynin was at the center of crucial world events for over thirty years and he has a lot to say about all of it. I think we can learn a lot from these former Cold Warriors that they learned the hard, hard way, and that we should never forget. —--- Jack A!fn Hicks. Administrative Librarian vi Pictfon R§om Dedicated] There are still a few patrons who ask, “Where’s the fiction?” Others have already discovered the newly restructured space on the lower level of the library and the large new elevator that provides direct access to the 3,600 square foot room. The fiction room now houses the en­ tire fiction collection of 23,331 volumes including all large print, mysteries, science fiction and an expanded paperback collec­ tion. The room meets the architect, staff, library board and publics expectations of being a quiet, restful, dignified, informal area with excellent lighting. The room was dedicated to Thomas E. Parfitt on Sunday, September 17. Mr. Parfitt, Library Board President for 20 years, gave his thanks and appreciation to the large audience. Bridget Lamont, Director of the Illlinois State Library was an honored guest at the dedication. Ms. Lamont commended the unique use of existing space provided at no extra cost to taxpayers. She also praised the fact that a longtime library trustee was so honored. We thank Deerfield Bakery, Swansons Blossom Shop, Bob Close, Hel’s Kitchen and the Deerfield Garden Club for their contributions to our successful event.

From left: Director Jack Flicks, Board Members Yvonne Sharpe and Diane Kraus at dedication llil®E*<2«r^' ir©nB<©v«ai#i@Era Fall 1993 saw the installation of the library’s handicapped accessible front doors and the addition of an outside video drop for pa­ tron convenience. Now a major priority for the library board is efficient renovation of main floor space which formerly housed the fiction collection. It is possible that the fireplace and current periodicals will be moved to the former fiction area providing a pleas­ ant reading space in a more peaceful lo­ cation. This would increase shelf space for the nonfiction collection and busi­ ness room. The Deerfield Public Library has received an official document of Senate Recogni­ tion from the Illinois Senate of the 89th Assembly in recognition of outstanding service to the community.

The library was moved tempo­ rarily in 1955 to a converted store at 758 Waukegan. In 1959 the li­ brary shared space with the town hall as a township library. As a village li­ brary, a bond issue was approved to build and equip our present build­ ing, now 25 years old. • Deerfield Public Library • Volume 12, Number 2 mmmi pBS§pib» N ^ >: -'' ... i =r.=:,:=r • < . ioXol : i aw •T. ... \ ‘ / casi |ojfrg I . ■ [5® '.

One holds that technology is the only future for libraries contrasted against a traditionalist past that says—"no change, books only." We hear so much today about computers, in­ formation technology, Internet, cd-rom, that many libraries have lost sight of what residents expect to find when they come into a library. Certainly we try to keep abreast of current technology— we offer a number of online and offline reference (continued on page 2) Rosemarij Sazonoff Creative Writing Contest—Prizes! For Adults 4?

Whether or not librar­ ies will in fact ever become strictly infor­ mation centers remains an open ques­ tion. In the meantime technology and its ancillaries have come to dominate think­ ing and budgets in many libraries. The speed of change in information technology will cause many, many changes in the format and style of deliv- " ery of library service. My crystal ball does not tell me what the final outcome will be. There will be and are new ap­ proaches to the age-old question that has plagued librarians ever since the library at Alexandria in Ptolemaic Egypt. “What's a good book to read?" In fact, readers advisory is becoming one of the most fas­ cinating areas of library service and an area of real growth and development of library service. This also helps librarians focus on what most people come into the library to find—a good book. Ironically the tools of the readers ad­ visory trade are those of computers and technology. These allow us to relate one fiction book to another, produce lists of ”read-a-likes," recommend fiction from obscure authors, and generally provide a more indepth readers referral than we ever could using only our memories and our own reading tastes. Even the Internet has become a great source for readers advisory work. The old fashioned way to learn about new authors and titles is from another reader. Our Summer Reading Club is based on this idea and has been such a success we are organizing a Winter Reading Club to share new titles and to introduce new readers to old titles. Here is a short list of read-a-likes put together by our staff: If you liked Colin Powell's biography, you'll like U.S. Grant’s Memoirs. If you liked Primary Colors you’ll like All the President's Men. If you liked The Last Don. you'll like Honor Thy Father. If you liked A Time To Kill, you'll like A Lesson Before Dying. If you liked The Bean Trees, you'll like Where the Heart Is. If You liked Gods and Generals, you’ll like KillerAngels. If you liked Fried Green To­ matoes you’ll like Walking Across Egypt. If you liked Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, you’ll like A Death in White Bear Lake. And finally if you liked Snow Falling on Cedars. I know you’ll like En­ emy Among Friends. Be sure to watch for our Winter Reading Club. 5 o--- Alan Hicks.

Join us then for awards and treats! �Librarian's Desk continued from paget and sponsored outings and tours. Not to be confused with today’s “outings". A 1914 AAA tour guide told how to drive to Deerfield so you could lunch at Deerspring Farm. Cross country events and racing advanced technology and cars grew into reliable transportation. Roads lagged behind, but by the twen­ ties and thirties the Lincoln Highway and Route 66 spanned the nation. Eisenhower’s national defense high­ ways finally tied the country together and were the catalyst for growth of au­ tomobile travel as we know it today. These highways are probably the most influential agents of social change that this country has ever seen.They allowed for, encouraged, and fostered the growth of the suburbs; changed the way we relate to one another, changed where and how we could work, whom we would marry, where we would shop,where our children would be educated, where and how we vacation , how we live. As the use of cars expanded, re-ex­ panded, and became the most common form of daily transportation it was only a short time before they became the stan­ dard way to get to work, and the daily commute became a part of everyone's life. In the suburbs the station wagon-now vans and sport utilities-became Mom’s rite of passage. The use of cars brought with it the necessary rules and regulations to make their operation safe and effec­ tive. Unregulated roads were chaos:rules brought order, discipline and safety. Safety. That is the word behind ev­ ery single traffic rule that exists. Disobey the rules, and crash into another car. Run a stop light, and run down another human being. Speed, and kill the child as she runs for her puppy. It was really just common sense, over time, that led to all the traffic laws and regulations that govern us today. What I see on my daily one mile trek to the Library disavows all of this. What I see is a growing chaos; a daily reduction in safety, civility, and courtesy. Safety: safety is the biggest loss. I don’t want to hear that this is a police problem. Our police do a fine job, this is a social/behavioral breakdown of large proportions. Daily, I am treated to a Mom in a mastodon sport utility running a stop sign, not even really slowing down. Just check for a police car, and gun it through the intersection. I see a Dad on his way to the train failing to yield-right-of-way to school children walking to their bus stop. Cars of every variety speed through my residential neighborhood as if they were competing in the Indy 500. I see almost everyone turning without using their turn signals-both an element of safety and courtesy. I see the same cars park in our handicapped and no parking zones as the drivers run to do their errands-thumbing their noses at the purpose of those special zones. As they leave, they back into parked cars, eyeball the crumpled fender and drive off. This transcends rudeness into crimi­ nality. It accelerates on the expressway. Of course, you see all the failures above, only at higher speeds; no turn lights, fail­ ure to yield right-of- way, and speeding. Worse, you see tailgating, weaving in the lanes, passing when inappropriate, driving on the shoulder to get ahead of a line of backed up traffic. You see ag­ gression, hostility and anger.

Some of the behavior seems to be related to the size and power of today’s sport utility mastodons, some of it to an inner rage that is almost sociopathic. Not being a car designer, or a psychiatrist, I don’t have an answer to either of these problems. Personally, I believe this behav­ ior to be related to modern society’s ano­ nymity and social disconnectedness, but it is mainly just selfish rudeness. What we are losing is a sense of safety, because we are absolutely see­ ing unsafe driving, plus a loss of civility, and courtesy. Decency behind the wheel seems to have evaporated. I guess I would ask myself how I would like to run down and kill a small child while speed­ ing, cripple or maim an elderly driver through aggressive tailgating, or ruin a young person’s future before he or she even get their life started. I think we should start looking to ourselves if we want these antisocial behaviors to stop. If we don’t take responsibility, I can’t imagine how bad driving conditions will be in ten years. The book I am -recom­ mending this month, before it is too late for you, is Illinois Rules of the Road. Al­ ways a good read, drop by and read one at the Library. Or, ignore the book and get exposed to it in mandatory traffic safety classes after you get your big ticket. Orville Freeman, former Governor of Minnesota, had a great phrase about driving--”lt’s not a right, it is a privilege”. And there aren’t any excuses.
