Desk
rP he plight of the deer in
A Lincolnshire is an emotional
pressure cooker. The issue is a lot
more involved than the wrong
animal in the wrong place at the
wrong time, or the sanctity of the
life of a single deer; it reaches
into the deepest recesses of our
ecological system and our con
science. The problem is more
complicated than either side of
the protagonists seem to grasp or
admit. The shooters’ solution is
both cruel and simplistic because
it does nothing to permanently
change the ecosystem—the deer
will simply return. The anthropo
morphism of these deer is proba
bly an even greater sin because
these animals are not little people
running around in furs and they
deserve an environmentally
sounder and a much more digni
fied defense.
I understand and sympathize
with both sides of the quandary.
Everyone agrees that this is one
of the most beautiful animals on
earth; but it is felt to be a menace
to safety, health and gardens by
one faction and the living incar
nation of wild nature by the

other. As a person who has been treated for Lyme
disease, I get a bit fearful because the disease con
cern is seldom even mentioned. What absolutely
stuns me is the level of emotional froth both sides
can chum up when there is a far greater travesty
right in the middle of the controversy; in fact, a
river runs through it. The Des Plaines River. If you
don’t know the Des Plaines, a one day paddle by
canoe from north of Libeityville to Deerfield Road
will delight and amaze you; or try any of the
extensive trails.
One hundred years ago a kid could swim and
fish in that river. It was a pristine, crystal clear
stream; home to beaver, otter, mink, pike. Eels,
who were born in the Sargasso Sea, migrated
there to spend their summers. Deer, bear, cari
bou, elk, badgers, wolverines and most likely
buffalo once roamed its shores. Many older
Deerfield residents still reminisce about the old
Des Plaines swimming hole. It is a river of sub
lime physical beauty—lyrical really—reduced in
stature by the level of junk we allow to be
pumped, dumped, or drained into it. Starting in
our backyards it flows all the way to the Gulf of
Mexico trailing our debris. The river is now
home only to the bottom feeding, lowly and
shunned, carp. If we are concerned about the
deer, we should be mortified by the water quali
ty of this beautiful river.
I know that everything pumped, dumped, or
oozed into the river meets or exceeds all the
EPA standards; but the cumulative effect is
something of which we should all be ashamed. I
would suggest that in the first decade of the 21st
century there is absolutely no reason or excuse
to put anything into our rivers and streams. We
must do better. Fifty years since the publication
of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring we seem to
have changed little and learned less—showing
the same passion for the life of this river as we
show for the life of one deer would be a starting
point. Surely the river deserves life as much as
any single creature—more, because it touches
upon thousands and thousands of lives.
Ryerson Nature Preserve is one of this
region’s most wonderful treasures, well main
tained, scenic, a step back into another era. A
perfect counterpoint for me to the digital age. To
walk on Ryerson’s paths is a privilege I recom
mend to everyone. But I always come back to
the river. Sitting by the little falls at the dam in a
drifting snowstorm transports you to silent
forests and distant vistas. The pungent odor of
chemicals always spoils my reverie and brings
me back to reality. Is this the legacy we leave
our children? In the optimism of the new millen
nium and the digital age can’t we find a solution
to clean water so that voyageurs of a future age
can share the experiences with the voyageurs of
the past? I challenge any doubter to take my
infallible Des Plaines River test. Go to the dam
in Ryerson, fill a 12 ounce glass with the water
spilling over the edge and drink it. If you can’t
do it, tell me why.
The book I am recommending this month is
Annie Proulx’s Close Range about life on the
harsh plains of Wyoming.

Barns never fell down when I was a kid. Yet as
you drive across rural America today that is the com
mon denominator of all states-barns falling down. I
have been struck by this phenomenon for quite some
time and I am pretty sure about what it means. Is it
the rise of absentee landlords, loss of output, lack of
self respect, closing out of the smaller farms, or what
I suspect most: a continued depopulation of rural
America? Actually it is all of these things, and more.
This represents a real change for the heartland
of America. No longer the rock-ribbed center of our
society, rural America now is owned and managed
by large real estate conglomerates, populated during
desirable weather by rich urban rusticators Land not
given over to rustication by urban dudes in their pickup
trucks and useless four-wheel drives has been sec
onded into giant 3000 acre farms churning out a gross
national agricultural product big enough to feed China.
All overseen by banks more interested in the bottom
line than abstractions like rural life.
These events force more and more rural folks off
the lands, raise their taxes, close them out of land
ownership, and give the most choice parcels to city

continued from pagel
people. Of course they let their barns fall
down. But what is this doing to us as a
society? Seeing my grandparents’ home
town of Rockwell City. Iowa not as a cru
cible of commerce, or trumpet of trade, but
as a forlorn relic really hurts. Where are
all the rural Americans, why did they go.
and where do they live now?
The reasons are almost as simple as
the enclosure laws that preceded the In
dustrial Revolution. Farms expanded in
size as units of service, the 1970's and
1980's bankrupted what was left of the
family farm, herbicides, pesticides and a
liquid nitrogen changed the way anything
is raised in America. When I was a kid, a
large hog farm was 100 porkers. Today,
across America, a large hog operation is
a hundred thousand hogs fouling the air
and water for five hundred square miles.
Not only a change in farming, but a mas
sive incursion into the environment as well
as the social strata of rural America. In
urban Chicago welfare is a code word for
racism; in rural America welfare means
half the shrunken population of any given
county.
Why mourn these changes? I suppose
at the basic level it is a feeling for me of a
personal loss of identity. I knew and iden
tified with a way of life that is gone forever.
But I also mourn the loss of a value sys
tem that placed family first, hard work and
industry second, with education underlay
ing both ideas. Instead of a therapist, a tight
knit circle of relatives and friends provided
support and comfort. I look at my grand
parents' home and remember a college
professor, banker, a head of a Fortune 500
company who grew up there. Now it looks
like someone who married his sister lives
there.
Where they all went is a mystery to me.
Many went on to college and never looked
back, others disappeared into low-paying
industrial jobs in the rust belt. But so many
characters I knew as a kid could never sur
vive in the city—no skills, eccentric beyond
description, independent beyond taming.
A rough-hewn class of rough cobs, who
could shoot out a pheasant’s eye at a hun
dred yards, always willing to help eat a pie
or give a hand to a neighbor down on their
luck, they populated Faulkner's Missis

were grist for so many other great Ameri

1984 has arrived ten years late and it is

am concerned about is the advent of political

it has been passively accepted defy my imagi

us to accept the unacceptable. It has been a

abilty to move me in time and place and
put me directly into the story being told.
What stands out about all the reading was
my free choice and access to read any
thing I wanted. Free choice is what makes
us Americans.
Can kids make those same free
choices today when they want to read or
even watch TV? I hope so, but I don’t
know for how long. Political correctness is
a fundamental challenge to the
Constitution and the Bill of Rights that
could block access to information, stymie
free inquiry, hamper the right to receive
information, stop freedom of the press. It
has already deeply damaged freedom of
speech. College campuses across the
U.S. have become deeply attached to pc;
in fact, many of them employ the equiva
lent of thought police to insure doctrinal
purity. My problem is whose doctrine,
whose purity? In the condescending clam
our to do good and be nice, are we throw
ing away our crucial civil rights?
My own professional organization,
the American Library Association,
embraces and advocates politically cor
rect speech and thought. Their new ortho
doxy is placing them far from many librari
ans who still believe in the Bill of Rights.
By no means do I want to return to an era
of racial, religious, sexist and gender slurs
and epithets. But I reject the prison of polit
ical correctness as an even more danger
ous social evil. It reminds me all too much
of my neighbor from the Soviet Union chill
ingly dismissing her father's tenure in the
Siberian Gulag as the result of "merely not
being correct with government." Let's hope
I turn out to be wrong when I sa$< 1984 has
come ten years late.Has anyone read
Orwell's 1984 lately?.
The books I am recommending this
month are all nonfiction and cover a wide
field of experience. The Roosevelts by Peter
Collier. Leading With My Heart by Virginia
Kelley. Life of the Party by Chris Ogden,
and finally Land Where the Blues Began by
Alan Lomax. Like Bill Clinton or not, you
can't help but like his mother and her can
dor. Alan Lomax has chronicled American
music for most of this century and knows
the themes and rhythm of blues music like
no one else. Pamela Digby Churchill
Hayward Harriman was indeed the "life of
the party" and knew all the rich and power
ful on both sides of the Atlantic for the past
fifty years. (And married most of them!) The
Roosevelts is a fine essay on money, poli
tics. power and arguably the most important
political family in U.S. history.

Fall, 1992
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
Vol. 7, No. 4
Library Services At Risk
A
t a time when library use has
skyrocketed, Governor Edgar
has approved a state budget
that has cut $7.2 million in funding for
library services in 17 regional library
systems in Illinois. Deerfield Library
belongs to the North Suburban Library
System (NSLS) whose budget has been
cut by 3314%, or $900,000.
At this juncture, it is hard to quantify
how these cuts will affect Deerfield
Library. Jack Hicks, Administrative
Librarian said, "All the external sup
port services that the public has come
to count on will be restricted, or
even eliminated."
Some system services to which the
public has become accustomed are
interlibrary loan of books, Central Seri
als Service which provides free photo
copies of articles in magazines not
owned by Deerfield, System Reference
Service which acts as a backup for ref
erence questions we are unable to
answer, and the loan of audio visual
materials to supplement our collec
tion. Effective immediately, the
serials service for copies of articles
has ceased.
Deerfield and all other Illinois libraries
will face diminished services as all
library systems in the state are
affected. Fifteen staff members of the
North Suburban Library System have
lost their jobs as a result of this cut in
state funds.
Meet Library
Administrators
Better than an inanimate sugges
tion box, Jack Hicks, Administra
tive Librarian and a member of
the Board of Trustees, will be
available in person to greet you
and to address any library issue
in the library's front lobby the
first Saturday of each month
from 9 a.m. to noon.
As funds are now restricted, Sarah
Long, System Director, hopes that
creative solutions may be found to
reinstate system services.
"We simply do not know yet how
deeply these cuts will be felt by our
patrons," said Hicks, "but we will
keep our community informed."
'The reductions will be painful," said
George Ryan, Secretary of State/State
Librarian. Some fees for back-up
library services may be necessary in
Deerfield Library's future.
warn
Across the
Librarian's Desk
T
he State budget cuts discussed
in this newsletter send the omi
nous and chilling message to
librarians across Illinois that services
our residents have come to expect and
count on will be restricted or
eliminated.
Deerfield will be directly affected by
these State budget cuts since they
instantly stratify residents access to
library services into the "haves" and
the "have nots."
We are all aware of the economic and
tax problems Illinois and the USA face
in general terms, but I am going to try
to put it into real terms.
Traveling Librarians share "good reads" at the Deerfield Senior Center. From
left: Judy Hortin, Baiba Rosenkranz, Sally Margolis, Sally Seifert, Pat Palmer,
Martha Sloan. Call us if your group would like a road show.
I see libraries as such a strong exten
sion to education in this country —
cutting across age, educational, and
(Continued on p. 2)
�Librarian’s Desk
(Continued fromn p. 1
economic barriers. If we continue to
erode our educational base I wonder
how this country will ever be competi
tive again. This all has to do with will
power and priorities.
I was really disappointed when the
NASA launch of the Hubble telescope
turned out to be such a fiasco. The Hub
ble project held so much promise for dis
covery and technical advancement yet
delivered essentially nothing. The will
power was there, but the execution was
lacking.
What has this to do with libraries? Sim
ply that the squandered Hubble budget
would pay the State Library System
shortfall for 200 years. I wonder where
our priorities have gone?
Starting soon, when a young child walks
into our library and seeks help that we
routinely have offered from State assis
tance, he will be turned down. When a
businessman seeks a magazine article
we do not hold, he will go away empty
handed. When a college student needs a
reference question answered that is
beyond our scope, it will remain unan
swered. All at a time when our residents
need more, not less, from our library
services. I hope none of the children we
turn away would have been a young
Thomas Edison or Jonas Salk.
I have no crystal ball to discern a glass
darkly, but the cavalier way the Secre
tary of State slashed library service gives
me no optimism.
Libraries provide so much service and
information to so many citizens, yet we
remain the lowest taxing component of
any government — usually 2% or lower.
The politicians will discover that they
can cut all of the library money and still
not effect any real saving. And at what
cost? — shortsighted and illusory sav
ings and permanent damage to library
users in Illinois.

tion of 147,599; this showed a 5%
increase over last year, while Deerfield
population remained unchanged.
We added 8,416 books and 678 sound
recordings; 1,098 were donations.
t 40,618 reference questions were asked
and answered.
fr 500+ attended our 65th Birthday Party.

Please don't be a "no show." If your
child is registered and cannot attend,
notify the library. If a child is absent
without notification, that child's place
will be given permanently to a child
from the waiting list.
I
Pre-school storytimes are one of a
child's first group experiences. In an 8
week session, a group identity develops
which is an important part of that expe
rience. Therefore, it is essential to fill
the group with those who are interested
in attending regularly.
Make A Present
New!!! Tot Time
Children in K-2nd grade are invited to
make "one-of-a-kind" presents in work
shops at 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Saturday,
November 21. Pre-registration required;
preference to Deerfield cardholders.
Fridays, Sept. 18, Oct. 23, Nov. 20
11 a.m. to noon. Drop in.
Summer Reading Tally
A new monthly program for tots
(infants to 2 years) and their
parents/caregivers offers a sharing,
group library experience: not a storytime format, but very short sessions of
finger games, songs, an introduction to
good books and records.
Adults in attendance should also enjoy
exchanging ideas in an informal setting.
Older pre-school siblings welcome.
For every book read in the summer Youth
Services Reading Club, children put a bean
in a jar at the front desk. By August 1, there
were 7359 beans in the jar! 305 children
received certificates for finishing their
"Discover! Read!" membership.
Two hundred joined the first Deerfield
Library Adult Summer Reading Club,
"Explore New Worlds." Members read a
minimum of 6 books, 3 in a foreign setting.
A valuable gift to the community is a read
ing list compiled from readers' suggestions.

—The other side of Lake Wobegon—
A Death in White Bear Lake is a book
about an “All American City.” This^ is a
hard story to discuss because it deals with
a small boy savagely beaten to death by ftis
mother — a child abuser. But it is an im
portant book on several levels and for ver^
serious reasons.
The homicide took place in 1965 but
because people closed their hearts and
minds to the evil around them, the legal
system sputtered and faltered and the case
was filed away for twenty-two years. In
1987, through an unlikely series of events,
a group of everyday people did some very
extraordinary things to see that this murder
would not go unpunished.
A courageous medical examiner re
opened the files, a determined police force
^J3uilt a strong charge, and a dedicated legal
^A'stem pressed the trial to a just conclu^^ion. These brave and outraged people
remembered an innocent little boy and
demanded justice, unlike so many who did
not speak in 1965, or denied, or lied, or
intimated, or covered up.
The real question raised by this book is:
what would you or I have done? Would we
look away, harden our hearts, refuse to get
involved to protect ourselves? After twentytwo years would we still turn away? Would
we remember? Would we have the courage
to stand against evil? If not, how would we
choose to be remembered? The message is
clear — if this could happen to an “All
American City” it can happen anywhere.
If they could do it, we could do it. Inertia
and failure to act are the real unknowns;
how easy it is to be brave if you are never
put to the test.
The author, Barry Siegel, merits great
praise for outstanding reporting. This
haunting book has an amazing texture,
depth, and feel for time and place. John
Donne wrote that... “no man is an island,”
a phrase that has a special meaning to me
because the crib side doctor who saw a
^Meath by child abuse and turned aside was
community stalwart in White Bear Lake
— my home town — and the attending
physician at my father’s death.

Changes to Serve You Better, Faster • • •
The popular new books are wanted by so
many; this often means long waits for the
best sellers. We are trying to deal with this
problem by shortening loan periods for new
fiction books and by ordering more copies
faster.
Beginning Sept. 4, all new fiction books
will have one week loan periods until they
are six months old. This should provide a
faster turnaround time for the next person.
Books can be renewed by phone or in
person if they are not overdue and there
is no waiting list.
While we cannot quickly satisfy 60 re
quests for Scott Turow’s “Burden of
Proof,” we are anticipating demand for
popular authors by using a new Fast Track
ordering system. It promises speedy
delivery of multiple copies of projected best
sellers. Some of these are Belva Plain’s
“Harvest”, Dick Francis’s “Long Shot”
and Sidney Sheldon’s “Memories of
Midnight”.
All new books will stay on the NEW
BOOK SHELVES for one year — nonfic-
tion by the fireplace, fiction on the new
stacks in the Fiction/Quiet Room.
To keep the collection current, librarians
are busy with a major weeding
(housecleaning) project. Outdated and
damaged books are removed from the col
lection, and some are placed on the
ongoing “for sale” carts.
Large Print Books, Adult Basic Readers,
Short Story Collections, and Circulating
Paperbacks are now next to the new fiction.
For reading suggestions, check our new
guides to good reading. These include lists
of new Deerfield books; “Bestsellers”
which include author close ups, plot sum
maries, what the critics say, and related
must reads; Best books of ’88 & ’89, and
lists of Techno Thrillers, Traditional
Romances, Faraway Places, Pigskin Peo
ple, Spies, etc. On display are also
“Modern Fantasy: 100 Best Novels,” a
book listing the best crime and mystery
books, “Sequels: A Guide to Reading in
Series”, American Best Sellers, and other
books offering reading suggestions.
The five story Illinois State Library
building was dedicated on June 20. It faces
and is designed to be compatible with the
architecture of the 102 year old State
Capitol building. The library houses the
state’s 4.7 million volumes, and state and
federal documents. In the planning stages
for 20 years, the project became a reality
when it received $36 million as part of the
“Building Illinois” program. The library’s
resources may be borrowed by using a
library card issued by any Illinois public
library.
At the dedication of the State Library building in
Springfield, Deerfield Librarians Baiba
Rosenkranz, far left, and Sally Brickman, flank
Secretary of State/State Librarian/Gubernatorial
candidate, Jim Edgar, with Elliott Kanner, far right
(Deerfield resident & North Suburban Library
System administrator).
Please let us know • • •
We are trying to determine the need for
library outreach service in Deerfield. If
there are people who would like to have
library service but are unable or have dif
ficulty getting to the library we would like
to know. Difficulty reading? Ask about our
specialized talking books from the National
Library Service for Blind/Physically
Handicapped.

North Shore Author Eleanore Devine
Tuesday, Sept. 11, 7:30 p.m.
Reviewers heralded her “quietly shock
ing” short stories from “You’re Standing
in My Light” as ‘’remarkable because they
are tart, taut, touching, economical, ellip
tical, sharp, sensuous and sexy”. Devine
lays claim to a territory of human ex
perience few writers have explored with
such honesty, perceptiveness and vigor;
that of the aging older woman, adamant
that her life make sense, determined that
certain human values be expressed.

from this condition.

tions on night fears, sibling rivalry, creative
play, imagination, etc. and respond to
questions.
Reality of Retirement
Tuesday, October 23, 7:30 p.m.
