Linda Ward-Callaghan, Young People’s Dept. MEMORIALS From time to time the library receives money with which to purchase books or equipment in memory of a deceased person. These gifts can be an appropriate memorial to a former patron, and are listed in the file drawer labeled "Gifts", part of the adult public card catalog. Entries are alphabetical by name of the per­ son in whose memory the book (or other material) was given. ■ ■ ■ ■ ADULT PROGRAMS ■ ■ ■ ■ Wed.

Recently we purchased a tele­ vision set, a video cassette re­ corder, and various books from the fund set up by the family and friends of Mr. S. E. White. Other large memorial funds honored the late Oben Holt and Frank Whitcher. We welcome these additions to our collection, and hope that you will be re­ minded of former friends when you see the familiar commemor­ ative book plates in these lasting memorials. Peggy McCabe, Adult Services Dept. �BOOKS-ON-TAPE Some books come in more than one format these days. On the shelves near our video cas­ settes you may have noticed a growing phenomenon — BooksOn-Tape for use in your car cas­ sette player, portable tape play­ er, and home stereos. In the past few months some larger American publishing houses have branched out into this new field so that you will soon have a choice of many more titles added to our collec­ tion which originally were re­ corded in Britain. While com­ muting, doing housework, or even weeding the garden you may listen to Gore Vidal reading his Lincoln, or The World of James Thurber read by Henry Morgan. Richard Todd, Susannah York, Claire Bloom, Tim PiggotSmith, John Gielgud, James Mason, and David Niven are some of the readers who are now in our collection. Titles are listed in the cassette card catalog under the subject heading "Talk­ ing Books." It is estimated that there are about 300 million cassette tape players in this country, so it seems logical that stories have joined music on bookshelves in store and libraries. We hope they will whet your appetite for the books themselves and others like them. But in the meantime, while performing some monoto­ nous, hum-drum activity, they make the time go faster and isn't it satisfying to accomplish two things at once? Peggy McCabe, Adult Services Dept.

NIF is a non-partisan coalition working to provide an opportunity for citizens to educate themselves on important issues and have their views heard in the policy making process. Americans have gathered in their communities across the nation each Fall since 1982 to discuss three public issues of national concern. The reading materials, which all participants study, are rigorously non-partisan. Fall 1987 Adult Programs SELECTING THE RIGHT HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN Wednesday, October 7th at 7:30 pm Citizens are being flooded with confusing mail soliciting enrollment in accident insurance, hospital plans. Medicare supplement plans, catastrophic medical insurance plans, and many other varieties of health plans. They are turning on their televisions to view health insurance advertising which implies financial disaster. They are even receiving information from their current health insurance carriers suggesting that they convert to a better plan and/or subscribe to additional plans. Medical problems are commonplace particularly in the "golden years" and medical costs are indeed costly. Having proper coverage is important. Everyone wants "adequate" coverage but few really understand what is needed or even what is covered. Because of this lack of understanding and fear of financial doom, many individuals purchase too much developed to show all sides and to help clarify the policy choices. Local forums all address the same three domestic issues, a coordination that makes the results of great interest to policy makers. This year the topics are: 1. Freedom of Speech- Where to Draw the Line 2. The Superpowers- Nuclear Weapons and National Security 3. The Trade Gap- Regaining the Competitive Edge Non-partisan sessions encourage airing all sides of an insurance or inadequate plans. Information and issues involved in this decision-making process of "Selecting the Right Health Insu ranee Plan r • will be addressed by Carolyn Shear. Carolyn Shear earned her B.S. and M.S.W. degrees at the University of Illinois. She was an instructor of Social Work in The College of Medicine at the University of Illinois and a medical social worker at the University of Illinois Research and Educational Hospital. She was medical assistant and secretary to the Chairman of the Department of Orthopedics, Northwestern University. Three years ago she started a health insurance service providing clients with complete management of medical bills and insurance claims. Her extensive experience has given her insights as to individual needs and health insurance plans. She does not sell insurance or have any affiliation with any insurance company or insurance broker. issue and work toward some common understandings. Those of you who have participated in our "Great Decisions" program, will see the similarity but whereas "Great Decisions" deals with foreign policy, the thrust in Ii National Issues Forum" is toward domestic problems (For example, last year the topics were "Crime," "The Farm Problem," and "Immigration"). If you would like to join a National Issues Study Circle, please call Peggy McCabe, Adult Services Librarian, to express your interest. With enough responses, we'll plan an evening time to meet. �COLLEGE CATALOG COLLECTION ANNUAL REPORTS Located at the end of our business room's reference shelves are a set of light green files containing over 800 annual reports.

ILLINET resources include the Illinois State Library, University of Illinois at Urbana, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale and at Edwardsville, and Chicago Public Library. If needed, other libraries in the state or in the country are used.

Deerfield, IL60015 To Honor The Profession’s Best and Deerfield’s Own In June, 1989, Deerfield's Robert R. McClarren, retires as Director, North Sub­ urban Library System, (NSLS) and re­ ceives the library profession's most pre­ stigious award: the Melvil Dewey Medal. The award, presented by the American Library Association is for “professional Achievement of a high order, particularly in the area of library management. . . and the tools and techniques of librarianship”. McClarren's wife Peg of 47 years, says, “His soul is being a librarian and of service. That is the essence of Bob”. This multi faceted, likeable state and national library leader often goes un­ noticed as he spends many a weekend “off duty” in casual garb wandering the stacks at his home library — Deerfield Public. He will be the star attraction at a reception Sunday April 16 at 2:30 p.m. at the library to which the whole Deerfield community is invited. McClarren has come a long way from his native farmlands of northwest Ohio as he prepares to retire after 22 years as Di­ rector of NSLS. He was first director of the system which now, largest library cooperative in Illinois, supplements local library service across the state and in­ cludes 319 member public and affiliated academic, school and special libraries. System services are used daily by Deer­ field Library patrons: These are interlib­ rary loan, periodical location, lending of audiovisual materials, special reference, service to the blind and physically hand­ icapped, and more. Vital Statistics Robert R. McClarren Robert R. McClarren Deerfield’s “Star” holds his under­ graduate degree from Muskingum College and served in the army in both World War II and the Korean War achieving the rank of Major. After receiving two master’s de­ grees, one in English and one in Library Science, Robert McClarren was Acting Director at Oak Park Public Library, but left to become library Director at Crawfordsville, Indiana for three years, Hun­ tington, WV for four and Western Coun­ ties Regional Library, WV for two. In 1962 he became Director of the Indiana State Library. He started with the North Suburban System in 1967. Promoting the cause of librarianship, he has been on the faculty at Graduate Schools of Library Science in Illinois, Texas and Wisconsin. He has held numer­ ous positions in the American Library As­ sociation including prestigious roles as Treasurer and Councilor-at-Large of this large national organization. He was Presi­ dent of the Illinois Library Association and also named Illinois Librarian of the Year. As this newsletter goes to press we have received word that McClarren has been awarded an honorary doctorate degree from Rosary College in Illinois. Join us in saluting your friend, col­ league and neighbor. As we celebrate the American Library Association’s “Year of the Librarian” during National Library Week: Robert r. McClarren RECEPTION SUNDAY APRIL 16, 2:30 P.M. Concert by internationally known Classi­ cal Guitarist Norman Ruiz, (also a Deer­ field resident), hors d’ouevres, and convi­ viality at Deerfield Public Library. R.S.V.P.945-3311 Birthday: March 15, 1921 Birthplace: Winameg, Ohio Current Home: Deerfield since 1967. Marital Status: Happily married to the same wife for 15,675 days. Children: Mark, 37, Todd, 34 First Library Job: Pre-professional: Page, Westerville, Ohio, Public Library. I collect: Archaeological Indian artifacts, Railroadiana (dining car recipes, menus, nappery, flatware, “silver” service, and pottery/china). Picture post cards, Items of postal history, Sunday School Union books, Tabacco silks, flannels, and leath­ ers (early 20ih century cigarette package inserts), Jazz records Favorite Pigout Food: B.C. (before cholesterol), cold Dungeness crab with mayonnaise, and fried country ham; A.C., unoiled, unsalted popcorn and home made oatmeal. I’d give anything to have met: My great grandfather, Dresden Winfield Huston Howard, and “Scurvy” Miller, top banana, Gayety burlesque theater, De­ troit, 1940. Best thing about Deerfield: Paved streets and the railroad through town. They didn’t teach me in library school: How to make library paste. If I could change one thing about my­ self: Increase the actuarial projection for my longevity. The book I’ve recommended lately: Mark Twain, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Greatest achievement: Participating in the establishment of cooperative library activities involving all types of libraries for the purpose of sharing their resources. The one thing everyone’s tried but me: Rafting the Grand Canyon. When I retire: I want to stay up as late as I want and then sleep as long as I want, and attend no more library board or committee meetings as a library staff member. �Sl’CXC'J’ . . . Recently there have been items in the newspaper and on TV about Librarians and the FBI. What the issue is all about is the FBI's interest in what people are read­ ing. I have been asked several times if that could happen in Deerfield, and since we use computers whether or not we keep a log of everything people read. Let's take last things first. We do not maintain a file of what our patrons read. We do have a record of what patrons take out, but when the materials arc returned, all records are erased. The computers are programmed not to compile a list of what a patron reads. First because it is a very bad idea, and second because it is specifically illegal to compile and reveal such a list in the State of Illinois. (Library Records Confidentiality Act, P.A. 83-179) This law clearly states that no one may view any Library record without a court order. So, we would cooperate with the FBI, within the spirit and the letter of a just and protective law. However, the only in­ formation our records will show are name, address, and telephone number. The book I am recommending this month is Ward Just’s new novel. Jack Gance, about a Chicago boy who attends the University of Chicago, studies politi­ cal science, goes to work for the local machine and ends up as a U.S. Senator. This is serious fiction about American politics, everyone’s favorite spectator sport. Lights, Camera, Action! If you miss a program at the library you may be able to catch it on Deerfield cable television or on tape available at the lib­ rary'. John Sanner, Deerfield resident has retired from a 22 year career at G.D. Searlc, and now has his own video service company. He will be taping Deerfield Lib­ rary programs. Presently they arc scheduled to air on Deerfield’s Library Channel 10 on Post Newsweek Cable. The time is tentatively Mon., Wed., Fri., at 8 p.m. The actual tapes, on Allergy/ Asthma, Shakespeare, Norman Ruiz con­ cert/reception, and Truman Capote book review may be seen on tv or borrowed from the library after their “live in lib­ rary" performances. Learning The Online Catalog Throughout the winter, the Reference Department offered classes on the use of the online computer catalog. While formal classes have ceased, librarians are happy to offer assistance with the catalogs. The old card catalogs are no longer in the lib­ rary. “Can You Recommend A Good Book”? If you’re a fan of thrillers or a devotee of historical fiction, there are two brand new annotated bibliographies for you at the library. Each list describes choice books from the past five years selected from Deerfield’s fiction collection. Hurry in to pick up your own copy before they disappear. Then you can read your way through your favorite genre all summer long.

Au­ thor of In Cold Blood, Breakfast at Tif­ fany ’s and smaller pieces such as A Christ­ mas Memory, Capote, was, according to Clarke, "a man of contradiction.

However, kindergarteners are welcome to attend one of the evening storyhours. The program features stories, songs, fingerplays, and other other ac­ tivities geared to this age group. New Juvenile Books On a recent trip to England Peggy McCabe of the Adult Readers Advisory Department did some scouting for books for the Youth Services Department. She brought back some additional books by E. Nesbit, including some about the Bastable children. For tum-of-the-century English family fun you might enjoy reading The Wouldbcgoods or The New Treasure Seekers. The Bastable children always seem to get in (and out) of trouble! Another book we’ve enjoyed and you might too is The Way Things Work by David Macaulay. Not only does Macaulay explain how machines do what they do do in a humorous and very palatable way, but he also shows how the concept behind one invention is linked to the concept of another. This is a book for the whole fam­ ily to share, including the least mechani­ cally minded. Trustee Reich Leaves Board * * I’m not retiring. I still live here. I just choose not to run,” said Charlene Reich, who has lived in Deerfield for 30 years and has just completed 14 years as a valuable member of the Deerfield Library Board of Trustees. (Elections for library board pos­ itions are April 4) Over the years, Mrs. Reich says it has been smooth sailing despite many changes, particularly in the area of library technology. “Computers, videos, books on tape, cd’s, a wonderful music collec­ tion — other options to reading — have in­ creased” she said, “yet reading is still up. The role of a board member is often misunderstood. Mrs. Reich likens it to running a home. You make policy deci­ sions, handle personnel, housekeeping, carpet, furniture, reorganization of space. Unlike home, the library has a budget of almost a million dollars and a large staff with complicated tasks of ordering, 99 budgeting, book selection, cataloging and so on. The staff works to make the library a place to be proud of, giving the public what they want. “We don’t pick the books or tell the librarians what to do; we hire experts for that. We set policies and the administration carries them out.” Mrs. Reich says she will miss being on the board where she has also served on the Policy Committee. She feels, however that it is time for new people to be involved. While an active spokesperson for Capture some excitement on our safari to adventure this summer when “The Great Book Hunt” gets underway. Our summer activities will start Tuesday, June 13 with registration for special programs and workshops. Monday, June 19 the Summer Reading Club will begin. Wed­ nesday nights will be filled with new ex­ periences during our Family Nights, and Thursday afternoons we'll always have movies to enjoy. So track down some fun at the library this summer! Our summer newsletter will have more details. Movies, Movies, Movies We’ll be showing some short movies in the months ahead on selected Saturday mornings from 10:00 - 10:30 a.m. for younger chil­ dren. The films will be: April 8— In Dutch Night’s Nice Rosie’s Walk May 13— Tammy the Toad Tennessee Birdwalk Strega Nonna Why not join us? the library, she also served as President of the Deerfield Women’s Club, and worked with church, PTA and County Literacy Program. She now hopes to devote more time to working as a volunteer teacher in the “English as a Second Language program. Her interest in Food and Nutri­ tion, a college major, is satisfied by in­ volvement in the North Suburban Home Economists Organization. Reich and her husband George have 3 grown sons. Serving on the board for 14 years has been a real learning experience, Reich says. The board has had a good mix of oc­ cupations and interests and she hopes they will continue to work in a congenial atmosphere. The board’s future deliberations will include a space plan that will make best and most efficient use of the library’s resources. A consultant has been hired for this purpose. “I want to leave everything in good hands” said Mrs. Reich. The staff and Deerfield community sincerely thank her for her enthusiasm, time, and commitment to the library. �(QUO QoUd 90S) • ' • pQJIAUJ QJ6 noX Noaivd ivisod an3ida33Q 961 °N TI *PI»!jJ»aa aivd aovisod sn Ajejqn onqnd piai.^oea 9d0 UdOddNON Spring 1989 Calendar April 3 Storyhourregistration9:30a.m. 8 Movies for young children 10:00- 10:30 a.m. 10 Storyhours begin 10:00 a.m. 16 Reception, Norman Ruiz Concert 2:30 p.m. 25 Nature and Wildflower Photography 7:30 p.m. May 10 The Capote Mystique 7:30 p.m. 13 Movies for young children 10:00- 10:30 a.m. 29 Memorial Day - Library Closed June 13 Register for Youth Services Programs 19 Summer Reading Club begins Free Blood Pressure screening: First Thursday of each month, 6:15 - 8:15 p.m. DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY Quarterly Newsletter Phone: 945-3311 Executive Librarian: Jack Hicks Library Board Tom Parfitt, President Rosemary Sazonoff, Secretary Tony Sabato, Treasurer Jack Anderson Sue Benn Wilbur Page Charlene Reich LIBRARY HOURS Mon. -Thurs.:9:30a.m. -9:00p.m. 9:30 a.m. -5:00 p.m. Fri., Sat.: 1:00p.m. -5:00p.m. Sun.: Closed Sun. beginning May 28 Editor: Sally Brickman Contributors Rick Bean Peggy McCabe Jean Reuther AskAProfessional.

Deerfield, IL 60015 the, dli&KViitiM '<$, "Dedh Anyone who has ever been in my office knows 1 am a Civil War buff; the walls are covered with prints of battles, significant events and personalities of that war. I come by my hobby by inheritance: two of my great-grandfathers served with the Union—one in the Ohio 2d Heavy Artil­ lery7, the other with the 9th Illinois. My in­ terest has been rekindled lately because of the excellent exhibit, “A House Divided," currently on display at the Chicago Historical Society, and the release of the film "Glory" about the 54th Massachusetts Infantry. The latter has all been made more appropriate because February was Black History Month. We have many book titles dealing with the Civil War, fiction and non-fiction. The classic combat novel of the Civil War The Red Badge of Courage, sums up the pro­ blem with most of the historical fiction of that period. It was written by a non­ participant after the fact. I am a firm believer in historical fiction. Dicken's por­ trait of 19th century London will always be the authoritative one no matter how many revisionist history books are written today. From Here to Eternity by James Jones and Norman Mailer’s Naked and the Dead define World War II for us. It is different with our Civil War; the best materials that we have are the diaries, letters, battlefield art, Mathew Brady photographs, the museums and their memorabilia. Gone for a Soldier, Echo of a Distant Drum, and Battles and Leaders ofthe Civil War are all good examples of first person narratives. The Women and the Crisis, Lee’s Lieutenants, and The Twentieth Maine are typical of the fine post-war non­ fiction that we have. As for historical fiction, I would recommend Jubilee, Killer Angels, Across Five Aprils, Unto this Hour, and Gone With the Wind. I still enjoy Carl Sandburg’s biographies of Lincoln and Mary Chesnut’s diaries. The Civil War has often been called a fire bell in the night—an exciting time in American history. What could be more ex­ citing than the events in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union for the past six months? The momentous changes we have seen hap­ pen are incredible. I am sure people will read about this thrilling era in history books a hundred years from now. But until then I’ll stick with my two-volume edition of The Gettysburg Papers. Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian * ik The Deerfield Library joins the nation in celebrating National Library Week, April 22-28.

BOOKS GIVE US WINGS A year ago I wrote in this column about the self-collapse of the Berlin Wall and the effect world-wide peace would have on genre fiction. I wrote a year too early. The war in the Middle East and the repression in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have a greater potential for disaster than any we have faced as a nation in the last forty years. I back our troops in the Persian Gulf and President Bush. I also respect those of us who choose to oppose this war. The U.S. Constitution guarantees freedom of speech-enabling citizens to voice opposi­ tion to governmental policy. About this right we should be resolute and justly proud. As a former Staff Sergeant in the 8th Infantry Division, I have strong feelings about the safety of our boys overseas. A concern closer to home are the racial and ethnic epithets that are heard to describe Middle Eastern peoples. These stereotypes must be rejected by all of us. I am impressed with President Bush when he speaks of a new world order emerging from this catastrophe. Hopefully, this will mean: a permanent rule of Inter­ national Law, a rejection of terrorism as an element of politics, a refusal to arm any tyrant with modern weapons, and an American foreign policy that rises above the failed concepts that have equated our friends as our enemy’s enemy. Can the epic Spring of 1990 still bloom into a world of peace? The book I am recommending this month is The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money, and Power by Daniel Yergin. Awash in a sea of oil this timely history traces man’s grasping for oil: the per­ sonalities, nationalism, and the drive for power and wealth that have created and exacerbated our current dilemma. **xs+^*s£*^t < YEAR OF THE LIFETIME READER 1991 Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian �Enrich your life Adult Programs Unless noted allprograms arefree, but reser­ vations are requested.

You can now hear your favorite music on cassette or compact disc or listen to books on tape in the library. To do this, select your audio, check it out, ask for head­ phones, and leave an i.d. at the Circulation Desk. On April, 2 a local election will be held for two Deerfield library trustee positions. ^|wo incumbents, Sue Benn and Tony ^^abato, will run for re-election. Both 20 year residents of Deerfield, they have each had a number of years’ experience at board posts. Sabato has been board treasurer and Benn has served on committees of the seven member board. Also active in other Deerfield community activities, they are strong users and supporters of the library. The Library Board meets monthly, and elected members each serve six year terms. Their responsibilities include determining basic library policy, delegating administrative authority to the director, and overseeing all major expenditures. ■ It now costs 30 cents to reserve a Deer­ field book, due to the rise in postal rates; you are notified by mail when your book is in. When books are re­ quested from other libraries, there is no charge; you are notified by telephone. ■ Missing books cause the library lots of problems. The book you don(t return is the book the next person needs. TRUTH STRANGER THAN FICTION? ■ It is a true axiom that when times get tough, people use the library more. The first month of 1991, adult refer­ ence questions increased 19 9c from last year. January 1990: 1,716 ques­ tions answered. January 1991:2,047. The library has just received a new fic­ tion book about air combat in the Persian Gulf, First Air by Michael Skinner. Skinner, a former CNN writer, has published a tech­ no thriller whose images beam at us on the evening news. The political scenario is dif­ ferent, but its depiction of modern war, as it could happen (already has) in the Persian is eerily coincidental. ■ Friends of the Library group is becom­ ing active and vital. For $5 a year you can join. Applications at front desk. AND THE WINNERS IN THE CHILDREN’S CATEGORY ARE... CALLING OUT OF TOWN? Deerfield Library has always housed a variety of current out of town (USA) telephone directories. Further, in the past each North Suburban Public Library has "specialized" in a different state, in a cooperative sharing project. (Deerfield’s "state" is Arizona.) Now, public libraries are no longer able to receive a large variety of free city telephone books. Since costs will be levied, we are placing a survey form on each telephone directory to determine use pat­ terns and the most needed phone books. Please continue to ask the reference librarians for assistance with the out of state directories. The telephone directory issue has become a very complicated one for libraries. 1991 Caldecott Award for outstanding 1990 U.S. picture book: Black and White, written and illustrated by David Macauley.

Deerfield, IL 60015 Executive Librarian Retires This Summer When Suzanne Whetstone, Ad­ ministrative Librarian, came to Deerfield Public Library 20 years ago, the library oc­ cupied one half of what is now the City Hall Annex, encompassing 3447 square feet and containing 25,600 books. Now planning to retire in early August, she leaves a fully automated, active, modem library of 32,000 square feet and 125,350 library items (books, records, tapes, etc.) Circulation of 230,710 in 1987 is very high compared to the collection size. She has supervised every detail of this evolution. “My first three years at Deerfield were so hectic I didn’t think I'd survive,” she chuckled. A building consultant had just completed a survey of requirements for a new library, and her task was to follow through. She interviewed architects, helped design the new library before there was even a site, worked with the board and community committee to pass the required referendum and, with the board, planned the exterior work, furniture and equipment. It was also a “terrific undertaking” to weed and build the collection as well as develop ordering procedures. With a competent staff, she revised the card catalog. The reference department at that time consisted solely of encyclopedias, and reference ser­ vice as we know it today had not commenced. Mrs. Whetstone’s biggest thrill was opening day at the new library, 920 Waukegan, on October 3, 1971. “People couldn't believe it when we opened the doors for the first time,” she said. “One of my greatest joys was when one member of the community who had opposed the building, said it was the best thing that ever happened to Deerfield. As libraries nationwide evolved into more than just books, so did Deerfield. Records, interlibrary loan service, reciprocal borrowing, prints, tapes, puzzles and programs were offered. Development of the collection was guided by the interests of the community. In 1974, the library pioneered by installing a computer in the reference department for online informa­ tion retrieval. Heading toward automation, the long *i process of circulation and the catalog “go­ ing online” began in 1980, in cooperation with three other area libraries. The project was a tremendous one requiring establish­ ment of a computer center and staff (at Skokie). Deerfield staff worked on many new special projects, giving more than was normally required in their jobs. “The staff has always been good about pilch-ing in and I must thank them all.” Circulation went online a year ago. “That day was anticlimatic. We didn't know how the public would take to it and worse than that the computer was down until the last minute! recalled Mrs. Whetstone. Directing a public library is like running a business, according to Mrs. Whetstone. “Acting as technical adviser, solving pro­ blems, hiring staff and enabling them to do their jobs are not the basics you learn in library school.” Greeting visitors to Deerfield Public Library has been another duty of the Ad­ ministrative Librarian. While all sorts of library patrons and a few unwanted members of the animal world have visited, the most prestigious guest in the past 20 years has been Nancy Reagan. At the library for a panel discussion with members of the Deerfield Citizens for Drug Awareness, Mrs. Reagan caused a stir of tv and news reporters and secret service men. The intricacies of this event and play­ ing hostess to the president’s wife were among the highlights of Mrs. Whetstone’s administration. Mrs. Whetstone has particularly enjoyed the family feeling that exists among the staff. “It’s a fine staff and a close staff and we’ve been through a lot of good and bad together.” Working with an excellent library board, she praises Thomas Parfitt who has been president throughout most of her Deerfield career. She has also enjoyed working with other North Suburban library administrators with whom she shared ideas and problems. Active in the American Library Association, and the North Subur­ ban Library System's administrative library board, Mrs. Whetstone feels she will pro­ bably continue to be involved with libraries and community service in the coming years. She plans to move to South 1f SUSAN WHETSTONE Bend, Indiana. A native of River Forest, IL, Mrs. Whetstone received her Masters Degree in Library Science from Rosary College. She was Head of the Humanities Reference Department at the University of Notre Dame before coming to Deerfield. ‘ ‘As a whole, the community appreciates the Deerfield Library. It is now time for someone else with new and fresh ideas,” said Mrs. Whetstone. A committee of the Board is presently conducting a national search for a new administrative librarian and hopes to have one in place by fall.

Last September, the Library Research Center of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign conducted a citizen survey for Deerfield Public Library. They questioned use of the library, frequency and major purposes for use, services of the library, and barriers to use. Of those residents randomly selected to answer the survey questionnaire, 46.1 % or 461 persons completed and returned the questionnaire. An unusually high per cent: 93% of respondents had used Deerfield Library in the past year. Reading for leisure was indicated by 52.9% as the most impor­ tant purpose for visiting the library. 18.4% used the library for work needs, and 12.2% for school needs. The remaining 16.5% used for other purposes, i.e. audio/visual materials, bringing children, etc. The typical respondent visited the library between 12 and 51 times per year and read one book per month or less. Library users gave the library a favorable overall rating as indicated in the following exerpt from survey results: “In general, how would you rate the services (facilities, collections, programs, assistance by staff, etc.) of the Deerfield Public Library? Above average 292/63.9% Average........ 131/28.7% Below Average . .10/2.2% Don’t Know . . . .24/5.3% TOTAL.......... .457/100% A list of individual services also re­ ceived favorable ratings. Examination of reasons for lack of use of the library showed such personal barriers as “lack of time” and “no need for library services” to be most influential. Barriers under the control of the library such as parking, hours and location accounted for only a small amount of lack of use. An unusually high percent of respondents who were library users were college educated (90%) and nearly 40% had done post graduate work. Respondents were predominantly managers and professionals (45.4%) or homemakers (24.9%). A citizen survey is conducted every five years to provide the library administrator, board and staff with information about the community that is needed to make informed decisions about programs and services. For Adults! Devour A Book and Your Lunch Too at Library Summer Book Reviews! Virginia Carter, Deerfield resident, will present a series of book reviews with dramatiza­ tions at the library, on Wednesday mornings, June 22, July 6 and July 20 at 11 a.m. Mrs. Carter, active in many local organizations, has taught school and worked in community theater. For the informal book presentations, the library will provide a beverage, and those who attend are welcome to bring a brown bag lunch. Mrs. Carter promises an exciting look and some sound effects that will make three fascinating books of our time come alive. For those who wish to borrow the books in advance, the library will have copies available. If young mothers wish to escape into the world of fiction by attending the series, the Youth Services Department will provide library activities from 11 a.m. to noon for preschool age children. The books to be reviewed will be: June 22: A Perfect Spy, another John LeCarre blockbuster novel by the author of The Spy Who Came in From the Cold. This is much more than intriguing espionage. It entails an entire lifetime of influences on a human personality. Magnus Pym is a shameful traitor, but also a lovable, charming, admired diplomat, husband and father. He manages to betray the British Intelligence community for three decades but at last they are on to him. What will he do? July 6: Prince of Tides, by Pat Conroy—A powerful novel of a southern family with a beautiful, social climbing mother and a violent father. One son tells their story as he goes to New York to seek help for his suicidal sister. A scintillating best seller, it is told with insight, compassion and humor. July 20: Cold Sassy Tree, by Olive Ann Burns was called “no less than brilliant" by the Boston Globe. Cold Sassy, Georgia, never a whirlpool of excitement, takes a scandalous turn when widower, E. Rucker Blakeslee, a well to do merchant, elopes with his milliner, half his age and a Yankee! This is a delicious story told through the eyes of an adolescent boy. Plan to attend the series by registering in advance at the library, 945-3311. Book Not In Deerfield? We’ll Borrow There are two North Suburban Library System (NSLS) services the library pro­ vides when a patron needs books, periodical articles or some other materials not owned by Deerfield Public Library. One is interlibrary loan. With our GEAC Computer Catalogs, there are two in­ terlibrary loan options. If the needed material is owned by one of the other three libraries in our GEAC consortium (Skokie, Waukegan, Morton Grove), we can order it by using the computer and the patron’s library card number. If it is not owned by a library in our GEAC consortium, an order is sent to the North Suburban office. All North Suburban libraries, cooperative library systems and the Illinois Library and Information Net- work are used for interlibrary loan service. Magazines, newspapers, annuals, government reports, and other periodical/serial materials not owned by Deerfield Library can be borrowed through the Central Serials Service. For rush situa­ tions, the library’s FAX machine can send and receive articles from Central Serials and from other area libraries. You must have a Deerfield Library card to request interlibrary loan, and orders are limited to five at a time. All photocopying is subject to copyright law. Both interlibrary loan and Central Serials Service arc intended to supplement the holdings of Deerfield Library and to extend services to library patrons. �r L Aj&iqn Ojiqnd p'lail'jaaa NOdlVd IVJLSOd ai3ldH33Q L 961 ON »!UJJ3d “II 'piaipaaa aivd Bovisod sn OHO JLIdOHdNON Adult Programs Review Thanks to all Deerfield residents who at­ tended the Adult library programs mid November to mid April. A variety of 15 major programs were held and the atten­ dance for most programs was favorable. A total of 475 people attended, some of whom were visiting the library for the first time. The most popular programs were the art lecture on the Courtauld Collection, Choices for a Richer Life, and Dealing with Difficult People. The “homemaking” pro­ grams on preparing for company at holiday time and home decorating were fourth and fifth in popularity. During the summer, adult programming will be lighter. A late morning book review series is featured (see article). An exciting line-up is in the planning stages for fall: look fora visit from a very popular and well known Chicago mystery writer and a morn­ ing Great Books course among others. Programs are evaluated regularly, and aimed at social, educational and recrea­ tional community interests.

Deerfield, IL 60015 Summer 1989 Vol. 4 No. 3 Sazonoff and Wolff Win Board Seats Sir Isaac Newton is reported to have said near the end of his life that he seemed to have been like a mere boy, playing on the seashore and diverting himself now and then by finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay undiscovered before him. That’s the way it is for me and many librarians: shelves of books that span dis­ tance, the ages, and all human thought, but are really a great ocean of truth just wailing there to be discovered. In this month’s column it is a privilege to recommend two local authors, each with intensely personal insights but with totally different styles and genres. It is ex­ citing to find a gem of a book, or an author you previously did not know, and to be able to tell a friend about your find. This gets to the heart of why people become lib­ rarians in the the first place: reading and sharing. One of the Chicago area’s finest writ­ ers is Chicago attorney and Deerfield resi­ dent Lowell Komie, whose perceptive and revealing short stories about lawyers have been critically acclaimed. I recommend reading The Judge's Chamber and Other Stories, a collection previously published by the American Bar Association as its first work of fiction. The style and wit of this book make it something very special to recommend to friends. The other area writer is Harold Gershowitz, a Northbrook resident and busi­ ness executive whose first novel has sold over 350,000 copies and received the Friends of Literature Award for Fiction. Remember This Dream is a thirty-year chronicle told through the eyes of two sis­ ters, one who emigrates to America while the other stays in Poland. The British equi­ valent of the Book-of-the-Month Club has acquired rights for its hardcover publica­ tion. Have a good Summer; we have an ex­ citing summer reading program for chil­ dren, lots of new books, programs for adults, and a great Fall ahead. Jack Alan Hicks Administrative Librarian The “ffs” won it on April 4. Rosemary Sazonoff and David Wolff were each elected to six-year terms as trustees of the Deerfield Library Board. Sazonoff has been a Deerfield resident for 32 years and a library board member for 13 years. To her, books and libraries are very precious. She recalls volunteering at the Deerfield Library when it was in a storefront. A feature writer for the Lemer Newspap­ ers, she has been involved in numerous Deerfield community groups. “I am delighted to have the opportunity to help the library move ahead. 1 ran for office because times are changing and I feel I can offer continuity to the board. Wolff, a manufacturers’ representative for five metal fabricating companies, has lived in Deerfield for 17 years and has been active with the Deerfield Community Con­ cert Band and Big Band Sound of Deerfield. An active library user, he also looks forward to working with the board and staff toward continued growth “of one of the best modem suburban libraries in the state.” He hopes to become to involved with the North Subur­ ban Library System and “to show the adults and children how easy it is to unlock the sec­ >* rets of the past at the library, as these are the keys to the future. Nonresident Fees Increase The Deerfield Library Board of Directors approved a $125 fee for nonresident library cards effective May 1, 1989. Heretofore the fee was $100. Fees, Pai annually, cover library service for all family members. Last year 177 families held non resident library cards. They live in Ban­ nockburn, Riverwoods, and unincorpo­ rated Deerfield. The Illinois Secretary of State requires all public libraries that provide nonresi­ dent library service to charge a fee that is equivalent to the average cost a resident pays in taxes to support the library. The state provides the formula to the library. The boundaries of service for the Deer­ field Public Library are the same as the Village limits of Deerfield. These bound­ aries are not related to U.S. Post Office ZIP codes or the limits of West Deerfield Township. No Summer Sundays Between Memorial Day and Labor Day the Deerfield Public Lib­ rary is closed on Sundays, but it’s business as usual Mon. through Thurs. 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Fri. and Sat. 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friends Start Up Save the date — Sunday, July 9 at 2 p.m. to get together with interested Deer­ field friends and neighbors to talk about organization of a Library Friends Group.

Another Farewell The staff also bid a fond farewell in spring to another long-term staff member, Ken Hoffman. Ken retired after 16 ycar^^fe of service as Head of Maintenance. Oftcr^^ referred to as the “heart of the library, Ken was always there when needed and usually cheered the staff with a song as the day began! He will be missed! Peggy McCabe To Retire Peggy McCabe After twenty years at the library. . . “On a dark and stormy night in London, England, I was born,” said Peggy McCabe, Deerfield’s well known Reader Services’ Librarian. Actually, it wasn’t really dark and stormy but it was London*. After 20 years of selecting fiction for the Deerfield Library, Peggy likes to fantasize! Her Scottish father, a golf professional, and English mother, settled in Deerfield many years ago, but later moved to Crystal Lake. Coincidentally, Peggy and her husband also moved to Deerfield 30 years ago. She has lived here ever since. After graduation from Lake Forest College, Peggy taught English at the college. She later received a Master’s Degree in Library Science from Rosary College. In 1969, to fulfill terms of a scholarship awarded by the state, she began a two-year stint at Deerfield Public Library. However, when her husband died at 45, she began a library career that stretched to 20 years. In those days the library was located in what is now the City Hall Annex and she was the only adult librarian working with Administrative Librarian Suzanne Whetstone. Peggy’s title changed several times and her duties were many: reference work, fiction selection, programming, service to the Blind & Physically Handicapped, and even a shot at cataloging. In the early days there were only books; she built the record/cassette col­ lection, as well as the large print and talking books collection. She has particularly en­ joyed the reference work. “The library has grown tremendously during the time Peggy has been here” said Jack Hicks. Administrative Librarian, “and Peggy was instrumental in much of that growth. Her imprint is on our building, our collection, and our services; she has given much of herself and her talents”. Peggy’s sons, Dennis, 38, and Phillip, 35 live in the Sunbelt, but she cannot imagine leaving Deerfield: “the 110 school district, boys’ baseball, A.A.U.W., high school teams, and all the people; I love the North Shore, no matter the weather.” She looks for­ ward to blocks of leisure time to pursue her many interests including travel, antiques, stamp collecting, a house that needs attention . . . and READING NON FICTION! *On Friday, July 14 at 3 p.m. an English Tea will be held in honor of Peggy McCabe. The Deerfield community is invited to attend. �Youth Services Family Nights: Are You Game? Families are invited to attend events together on Wednesday nights.
