Back to School!
5 Fab E- resources
for Youth & Teens
(details on page 2)
�After the lazy days of summer and the smells of
environmentally safe sunscreen, it’s time to get back
to school. I have always ei\joyed shopping for the start
of school-picking out folders and new crayons. DPL
is a great resource for your students to help them
with their homework all year long!
I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that I grew up
appreciating libraries, learning, and books. I
remember heading to our local library so that I could
use a variety of resources, like encyclopedias,
biographies, and almanacs, to work on school reports.
I also remember taking my whole Saturday morning
to do this research, with my parents dropping me at
the library and then going through all those
resources! How much more convenient it would have
been for me, and honestly my parents, if we were able
to simply use an e-resource?
We offer a variety of online resources that supplement
our print collection. All these resources are available
with your DPL card. If it has been a while since
you’ve updated your card, stop by the library during
the 69 hours we’re open each week and the staff will
be happy to take care of that. After that, the
resources are yours to use!
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
DPL is your online Answer Place!
School has started, which means the homework projects are lining up. We can help with that! While we love to see you in-person,
you don’t need to come to the library to take advantage of the online resources we offer for researching a topic for a paper,
homework help, connecting with a tutor, or learning a new language.
Here is an introduction to a few of our dynamic online resources. You can find these, and many more, on the Library website at
deerfieldlibrary.org/online-resources.
HQ Research Projects
No more heavy (book) lifting
required when researching for a paper,
preparing for a classroom discussion, or
lining up resources for the debate team.
Encyclopedia Britan nica online
gives you three sites in one: Children;
Young Adults; and the Reference Center
for older students and adults. Choose the
level that works best for your research.
This is a great resource for exploring
the rich and varied history of the United
States through speeches, historical
accounts, memoirs, poems, images,
and multimedia,
ScholasticGo: Eveiy topic search
provides results at four different reading
levels. This easy-to-navigate resource
includes more than 80,000 vetted
websites, topographical, historical, and
current interactive maps, videos, and
multiple dictionaries. ScholasticGo was
developed to help students strengthen
content knowledge, vocabulary, and core
proficiency skills.
2
Facts on File/Issues &
Controversies: Contains more than
800 articles on current events issues

Ib ensure objective coverage and a
wide range of competing viewpoints, the

and electronic news sources from the
United States and around the world.
Homework Help
Everyone has a different
learning style, and you’ll be sure to find
the right fit with this resource.

for help from real, live tutors online!

college introduction level students, and

advantage of the Writing Lab for online

our global marketplace.

interactive platform to learn one or more
of over 50 languages including Hindi,
Mandarin Chinese, Russian, and Urdu.

Awesome Things
Library cards available for
awesome readers ages 5+
(Tour of Awesome begins on page 2)
i
�September is officially
Library Card Sign-up
Month!
This “holiday” is an initiative
championed by the American
Library Association to promote,
you guessed it, library cards! In
1987, Education Secretary
William J. Bennett wanted a
way to encourage all children
to get, and use, a library
card. Since then,
libraries use this
month as a way
Celebrate Library Card Sign-up
Month by exploring the awesomeness
of your Deerfield Public Library!
True, you don’t need a library card for all these activities, but
everyone should have this awesome card in their wallet.
Library cards are available for ages 5+!
to remind the public that a
library card is a way to explore
educational and recreational
resources. Public libraries are
great equalizers. There are very
few civic institutions that serve
people from all backgrounds
and walks of life. Public
libraries are a source of
community pride, and each one
is unique in how it serves its
community.
At Deerfield Public Library,
we are very proud of the
variety of services we offer
our community. Throughout
this issue of Browsing, we
will be highlighting some of
the great things that you can
do with your DPL card.
We hope you will find
something new
and unique.
With your library card, in
addition to being able to check
out books in a variety of
formats, I encourage you to
explore the Library's wide
variety of digital resources. Are
you looking to make an
automobile purchase this year?
Be sure to check out our new
Auto Finance Resource
database. Download the hoopla
app to get access to hundreds
of streaming TV shows, movies,
and audiobooks. And we have
an amazing, professional staff
available to assist you in your
information-seeking endeavors.
We are here to help you find the
information you need.
Deerfield Public Library is
always looking for ways to meet
the needs of the community.
Your library card is the key that
can unlock many doors!

A Welcome and a Look Ahead
Welcome Amy Falasz-Peterson, our new Library
Director as of July 1! Amy is learning all about our
outstanding Library — perhaps you have seen
her in the Library, in the lobby during the July
4th parade, or around town as she settles in. Amy
comes to us with nine years’ experience as Library
Director in East Peoria, Illinois. Amy has also
been an Assistant Director and Head of Reference,
experience we know will serve us well. During the
interview process, Amy impressed the Board and
Library staff with her focus on community,
outreach, customer service, and respect for the
important role libraries play in communities.
With Amy’s leadership, the Board will begin a
strategic plan this year. We will research new and
future trends in libraries, and we will ask you to
help us identify needs. Our last strategic plan
helped lead us to our renovated, larger library. It
helped identify the need for more study rooms,
more meeting spaces, and technological updates
throughout the library. After living in our new
space for two years, we are excited to make plans
for the future. Please check future Browsing
issues and our website for opportunities to
be involved.

Deerfield Library is STEAMing
What is STEAM and why is
it at the Library?
STEAM is the acronym for Science,
^technology, Engineering, Art, and
Mathematics. At the Deerfield Public
Library you’ll find STEAM throughout the
Youth Services Department’s programming.
The Library is a perfect place to introduce
and encourage your child's natural curiosity
about the world.
What type of STEAM programs
does the Library offer?
Programs with a STEAM emphasis are
offered at the Library year-round. KiDLS
(Kids in Deerfield Love Science) is our
quarterly event for the elementary school
crowd and their grown-ups. From examining
color to making our own music to learning
about Illinois’ wild mammals, we have a
great time in KiDLS!
STEAM can also be found in other programs,
such as Ready, Set, Learn offered during
the school year for preschoolers, in our
Minecraft Clubs, and in our homeschool
10
programs. Every year, the DPS 109 schools,
area preschools, other schools and
homeschoolers showcase their artwork
in the glass display cases as you enter the
youth department.
At what age is it appropriate to
introduce your child to STEAM?
“Real science begins
with childhood
curiosity, which
leads to discovery
and exploration....,f
It is never too early to encourage your child’s
exploration of the world. Whether through
a program or our books and magazines, the
Deerfield Public Library offers a myriad of
ways to engage with and enhance your child’s
curiosity. Choose a picture book, such as
ILove Bugs! by Philemon Stages, or a
nonfiction title, such as Growing Patterns:
Fibonacci Numbers in Nature by Sarah C.
Campbell, or magazines such as Ask! and
Click, and begin your journey of discovery
right here!

the Everyday World to Foster Language and

What three words would you use to describe your
ideal library experience? Our Board and staff
members will be asking you that over the coming
months, as we continue to refine and enhance your
library experience, both in the physical library and
the virtual version.
U
*
99
I DIDN’T KNOW THAT!
We asked staff to give us the inside track on some possibly
under-the-radar services and resources.
Are you among those downloading 2,000 e-books each
month from the Libraiy? Is your club or organization
using one of our free meeting room spaces? Have you
had a favorite book signed by a visiting author? Are
you playing Minecraft with friends at the Libraiy? Did
you help provide for the food pantiy or the animal
shelter through our donation days?
Melissa S., Adult Sendees: “The Library has two
notaries on staff and offers notary services free
of charge. As notary needs vary - some are
quick and easy, while some require more time
and paperwork —we encourage patrons to call
ahead to make an appointment, and speak to
the notary to make sure you have all the items
needed to moveforward with the process. ”
Is your Library card now accessed through an app on
your smartphone, rather than plastic in your wallet?
Do you follow our blogs online? Have you been to one
of our Pinterest classes? Are you enjoying local
attractions with a Museum Adventure Pass?
Kary H., Youth Services: “One of ourfavorite
days in the Youth Department is when a young
child gets his/her very own library card! You
may not know that library cards are available
to children ages 5 and older. We like to make a
big deal about it, so be sure to stop by the Youth
Services desk and let your child show us
his/her new card!"
Yes, books are what we are known for, AND we are so
much more! Come explore us today - and let us WOW
you.
Mary Pergander
Library Director
Vicki K., Patron Services: “Patrons often ask us
where they can register to vote, and are thrilled
to learn they can do so right at the library.
During most hours we are open, there is a staff
member available to register voters. All you need
to bring are twoforms ofID, one with your
current address. FYI, as ofJuly 1, 2014, Illinois
residents have the option to register to vote online at
https://ova.elections.il.gov ”
Our remodeled and renovated library is just over a year
old, and we thank all of you again for your support
with our project. Now that we have settled in to our
new space, we are looking ahead to keep improving
our service to the community.
We’ve appreciated your feedback over the past year
and hopefully you’ve noticed improvements both in the
building and on our website. As the Board and Library
staff begin re-examining our mission and vision, know
that we strive to bring you an outstanding collection,
led by an outstanding staff, in a space where you
enjoy spending part of your day.

�New Tech @ Your Library
Library Tech Classes
Lead to Discovery
When attorney Eugene Stahnke retired from
practice, he got right to work ramping up his
computer skills. Over the past year, Eugene has
taken more than a dozen technology classes offered
by the Libraiy, and has advanced from “101” level to
fluency with a wide range of digital activities. We
asked Eugene to share some thoughts about his
learning experience.
Visit us at deerfieldlibrarv.org
Instruction Librarian Jenn Hovanec
has led many ofthe technology classes
attended by Eugene Stahnke
Q. What was your motivation to take the Library's technology classes?
A. During my years as an attorney, the division of labor always had someone else handling
the computer-related tasks. As a result, I had little detailed knowledge of the computer
and the Web. I got tired of asking for help, and relying on others for even the simplest
of activities, such as email.
Meet Your New Website
The Library’s refresh continues
with a spiffy new website design.
It features friendly navigation,
optimized mobile browsing, and
fresh insights from expert Library
staff. Enjoy the tour!
Q. Why would you recommend the Library's classes?
A. For starters, you have expert trainers, and at no cost. The classes are extremely well
organized, and the librarians leading the classes are excellent communicators. The
hands-on training, with the instructor right in front of you, is invaluable. They provide
excellent handouts, and are always available for questions if you get stuck up the road.
Q. How have you been using your new skills?
A. Where to start? Email, of course, and basic word processing. I’ve also enjoyed learning
how to truly mine gold from the library’s catalog, including tracking down books and
articles for my many interests and hobbies. One class introduced a number of
important free online resources, including Consumer Reports. I also learned about the
Goodreads website, which has become a favorite for tracking my reading, and sharing
with a world-wide online community of readers.
Q. Have you had any unexpected outcomes?
A. I never expected to own a tablet and a smartphone, and to be actively using them.
Diking photos with the smartphone is worlds beyond what I eked out on my old
cellphone. The Library’s classes have helped guide the whole experience from
purchasing to organizing photos and sharing them online.
Game on at Teen PS4
Station!
Teens, next time you need a break
from studying or just to relax, try
the new Teen Gaming Station.
Located in the Teen Space, the
game station has a brand new
PlayStation 4 with pre-loaded
games, wireless controllers, and
headphones. Current available
games include: Fifa 14, Madden 25,
Lego Marvel Superheroes, and Need
for Speed Rivals. Stop at the Media
Desk to check out the
controllers and headsets.
10
Q. What recommendations do you have tor getting started?
A. After class, be sure to use the handout and continue to reinforce what you learned in
class. It’s not that time-consuming, and repetition makes all the difference. If you don’t
have a computer at home, there are many hours of open access to the computers in the
Library’s lab. If you are interested in purchasing a computer, I highly recommend “How
to Buy a Computer” on November 19. Also, don’t be nervous about being in the class.
The shared experience proved to be very beneficial.

By the numbers...
°’s - „o(ii“ -^ei,
Even though our stock-in-trade at the Library is words, we thought
you’d be interested to see how we’re doing by the numbers. These
statistics reflect our activity during the year we spent at the temporary
site during the renovation.
Open 69 hours a week
159,810 visits
403,762 items circulated during the fiscal year
82,422 reference questions answered for adults and children
13,920 Deerfield resident Library cards in use
108,118 books owned
22,427 e-books owned
11,090 DVDs owned
977 items loaned to other libraries
45,549 items were loaned to cardholders from other libraries
16,978 log-ons to the Library’s public computers
Although helping those in need is
always in season, the holidays offer
more opportunities for us to give back
to our communities. The Library has
been a drop-off center for TOYS FOR
TOTS for many years and we’re keeping
that tradition alive in our newly
renovated space. Drop off new,
unwrapped toys in the box in the
Library’s lobby now through December
Currently, we’re trending up in all categories, with growth most noticeable in
computer use—including in the Computer Lab, the dedicated computers in the
Youth Services area and the new express computers in the Lobby—and attendance
at Library programs. Due to the lack of space at the temporary facility (which was
about half the size of our permanent home) we weren’t able to present anything
more than book discussions and children’s storytimes during the renovation. Now
we’re going full tilt, offering more interesting and exciting programs for children,
families, teens and adults than ever before—so many that we’ve had to increase
the number of pages in this issue of BROWSING to showcase all of them. Our new
free tech classes (see TECH CONNECTIONS) with a maximum capacity of
12—which is the number of computers available in the lab—fill up almost as
fast as our extremely popular storytimes.
16th Although all types of toys for all
ages are accepted, please remember
The Board, the staff and I are happy to report that we’re busier than ever, with the
great new facilities, Computer Lab, expanded services, and growing collections.
Hope to see you soon!
The Library is also a designated
drop-off location for the Deerfield

What’s in your wallet??!
The smartest card in your wallet is now the
most flexible! Both the new adult and
children’s cards have a key tag, as well
as the familiar wallet size format, which
allows us to send you home with the item
your kids have put on hold, or vice versa. To protect
your account, the material must be checked out on the same
card that was used when the item was placed on hold. In other words, if
your spouse puts material on hold using her or his card, you’ll need that
card to pick up that material for him or her. The key tags allow you to
have a copy of the card and makes everything easy.
If you do decide to exchange your old card for the new format, be sure
to let the Library staff person who’s helping
you know if you check out e-books using
the card or use Zinio. He or she can help
you make the necessary changes.

“The Temp site is terrific!
Why don’t you just stay there??”
By Mary Pergander, Library Director
Three Generations Celebrate
Library Card Sign-Up Month
While the renovation of the building at 920 Waukegan Road moves along, we’ve
settled in at our temporary home at Cadwell’s Corners. We appreciate the positive
feedback from patrons and visitors: The space is very welcoming and conveniently
arranged on one level. It feels and functions like a “real” library, and it certainly
will work well for us for the year we need to be here.
September is National Libraiy Card Sign-up
Month and—according to three generations
in one family of Deerfielders—their Libraiy
cards are the smartest, most valued cards in
their wallets.
“We moved to Deerfield in 1960,” says Jan
Zobus (left) “and we’ve been faithful Libraiy
users ever since.” Jan has seen—and
supported—the Libraiy as it has evolved
from a place to borrow the latest best seller
or do homework into a full-fledged research,
digital download center and community
meeting place. Her daughter, Laura Kempf
(right) remembers her mother Jan taking her
to the Children’s Department when it was in
a trailer near the current Village Hall. Laura
is now the co-president of the Friends of the
Deerfield Public Library. “We were just at the
Libraiy checking out several books on CD for
our upcoming road trip,” said Laura during
the interview. “The Library gives us open and
free access to so much material we would
otherwise have to buy—and store!” Third
generation family member and Library user
Erin Kempf (center) is a former member of
the Teen Advisory Board, long-time STAR
volunteer and heavy digital downloaded “I
love being able to download e-books from
home.. .and I love the fact I can use my
Deerfield Public Libraiy card to download
e- books when I go away to college."
Do you have a current Library card? If not,
stop by during September with two forms of
identification showing your Deerfield
address, and get one of the most valuable
cards you can own!
Nice as it is, our temporary home lacks some important features. It’s about a third
smaller than the old building at 920 Waukegan, and only about half the size the
renovated and remodeled Libraiy will be when completed. Currently there are no
study rooms, no program spaces, no public meeting rooms, no quiet spaces, no
storage, no drive-up book drops, and only 12 adult and four children’s computers.
Plus, we’re now at the far south end of the Village when we have traditionally been
in the heart of Deerfield, and many residents have let us know this is not
convenient for them.
We’re looking forward to returning to a much more functional, environmentally
friendly, and beautiful building—a fresh space that will be able to flex along with
the changing needs of our community. So come and visit our temporary home soon,
and watch for news of the Grand Re-opening of the main Library in mid-2013.

■ The Story of Beautiful Girl by Rachel Simon
September 13,10:30 a.m.
While institutionalized in 1968, Lynnie and Homan fall deeply in
love and long for their freedom. They escape the institution,
find shelter with a widowed teacher, and are eventually forced
to leave their baby behind. Spanning 40 years, this is a story of
true love, friendship, and destiny.

■ Gertrude and Claudius by John Updike
September 20, 7:30 p.m.
Set before the action begins in Shakespeare's "Hamlet," this
speculative novel follows the lives of Gertrude and Claudius,
King and Queen of Denmark, as they wend their way towards
adultery and treachery to ascend the throne. This book discus
sion is part of Writers’ Theatre “Page to Stage” program, in sup
port of their staging of “Hamlet.” Check out writerstheatre.org
for more information.
■ Little Brother by Corey Doctorow
October 11,10:30 a.m. and October 18, 7:30 p.m.
Marcus’s whole world changes when he and his
friends find themselves caught in the aftermath
neBook
of a major terrorist attack on San Francisco. In
Zip Code
the wrong place at the wrong time, Marcus and
his friends are apprehended by the Department
of Homeland Security and whisked away to a secret prison
where they're mercilessly interrogated for days. When he is
finally released, Marcus discovers that his city has become a
police state where every citizen is treated like a potential
terrorist. He knows that no one will believe his story, which
leaves him only one option: take down the Department of
Homeland Security himself.
■ The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson
November 8,10:30 a.m.
Annie and Buster Fang spent their youth as the children of
famous performance artists. Known only as Child A and Child B,
they were manipulated pawns in their parent’s highly public and
often uncomfortable “performances.” Now adults, both Annie
and Buster find themselves returning home and facing their
family legacy.
■ The Irresistible Henry House by Lisa Grunwald
November 15, 7:30 p.m.
In the mid-twentieth century in a home economics program at
a prominent university, real babies are being used to teach
mothering skills to young women. For a young man raised in
these unlikely circumstances, finding real love and learning to
trust will prove to be the work of a lifetime. From his earliest
days as a "practice baby" through his adult adventures in 1960s
Henry House remains handsome, charming, universally adored,
and never entirely accessible to the many women he conquers
but can never entirely trust.

Little Brother by Cory Doctorow
Imagine if our country were turned into a police state,
UTILE BROTHER! where
every citizen is treated like a potential terrorist.
The government could track every step you take
with video surveillance and monitor all of your
communication. Would you trade your freedom for
, security? In an increasingly digital world, privacy has
become a huge issue. The War on Terror, globalization,
CORY DOCTOROW
and economic difficulties have led corporations and
governments to abuse digital technology, threatening
our privacy and civil liberties. In the 21st century, Little Brother is watching you.
Little Brother by Cory Doctorow is the story of seventeen-year-old Marcus, who
ditches school one morning to hang out with his friends. But when a major
terrorist attack takes place, Marcus finds himself in the wrong place at the
wrong time and is swept up by the Department of Homeland Security and
whisked away to a secret prison, where he is interrogated for days. When he is
finally released, Marcus discovers that his city has become a police state where
every citizen is treated like a potential terrorist. He knows that no one will
believe his stoiy, which leaves him only one option: take down the Department
of Homeland Security himself.
Book Discussions of Little Brother at the Deerfield Public Library

Electronic Frontier' Foundation (eff.org), a non-profit civil liberties group
that defendsfreedom in technology law, policy, standards and treaties. His
best-selling novel Little Brother was nominatedfor the 2008 Hugo, Nebula,
Sunburst and Locus Awards. It won the Ontario Library White Pine Award,
the Prometheus Award, as well as the Indienet Awardfor bestselling young
adult novel in America's top 1000 independent bookstores in 2008.
Just like Little Brother’s main character
Marcus, today’s teens are extremely tech
savy. But the digital footprint they create
can affect their future. These programs,
sponsored by the Deerfield Parent Network,
aim to help parents understand the issues
surrounding social media and the digital
world their child or teen lives in.
Is There an App for That?

world your child lives in.

Message from the Director
We are moving right along in our remodeling and
expansion plans. Currently, we are completing the design
approvals process through the Commissions and the Village Board.
We are also looking for a suitable temporary site during construction.
Here is our estimated calendar:
• September, 2011 — Begin creating construction documents
• January, 2012 — Go out for construction bids
• February, 2012 — Move into temporary site
• April, 2012 — Begin construction on remodeling and expansion
• Late fall 2013 — Return to 920 Waukegan
We appreciate the input and feedback we receive from residents along the way, whether through our public information
sessions, emails and comment cards, visits with our Board members at Farmers Markets or just in line at the grocery store!
In discussions about the building project, we are often asked how the Library is addressing the rapid increase in electronic
formats for books and movies. We already have e-books and e-audios available, along with a limited video selection.
Currently, e-book demand is surpassing our available copies. We will soon make more e-book copies of popular titles
available to our users, while still offering a wide selection of new and beloved print books. We are taking these changes into
account as we plan the new spaces for the Library, allowing MORE to be the dominant word—more books through the
combination of print and e-formats, more space to read in a comfortable chair, more room for individuals using laptops,
more private spaces for small group discussions, more space to spread out study materials.
Throughout the changes to come, we will continue to share our developing plans and progress with residents through our
website, print newsletter, Facebook, and other means. We hope you will follow along!

We’re Reading
Together, Again!
Our community-wide reading program, One
Book, One Zip Code, coincides with the 10th
anniversary of September 11,2001, an event
that drives the plot of this year’s selection,
“Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” by
Jonathan Safran Foer.
In the book, nine-year-old Oskar Schell embarks
on a secret mission to find the lock that matches
a mysterious key that belonged to his father,
who died in the World Trade Center on the
morning of September 11. This brings Oskar
into contact with survivors of all sorts on an
affecting, often funny, and ultimately healing
journey.
The 10-year anniversary played a big role in the
One Book, One Zip Code committee’s selection.
“One way we learn about the past is through
stories,” says David Hirsch, long time member
of the committee. “Fiction is a powerful vehicle
for us to explore our relationships with each
other and with events like 9/11. One of the most
wonderful things about reading this book at this
time is that it enhances both the experience
of reading and our understanding of the com
plexities of 9/11. We hope that this book adds a
significant layer to the commemoration of 9/11.”
Another way we hope to add a “significant
layer” to this important remembrance is
through our programming. On Sunday,
September 11, following the civic ceremony at
Deerfield Village Hall which starts at 1:30 p.m,
Rabbi Aaron Melman of Temple Beth Shalom
in Northbrook will speak about his personal
experiences as student chaplain of the New
York Fire Department on 9/11. At 6:30 p.m.
on Monday, September 12, at Deerfield High
School, David Hirsch will interview the author
via Skype! Plus, Whitehall of Deerfield will
give away two Nooks and Barnes & Noble
gift cards. Other One Book programs are
highlighted in this issue of BROWSING or at
onebookonezipcode.org.
Special cards for sharing thoughts of 9/11 will
be available at every event, at the Library, at
the Patty Turner Center, at the high school and
elsewhere. People can drop off their cards or
mail them to the Library, which will collect
the cards in a book that will be added to the
collection.
Please join us in reading together, again!

geometric shapes and patterns in
increasing complexity. Frank Lloyd
Wright, who played with the blocks

Vd Public Lib
To Deerfield Residents
From Ken Abosch, President
Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
On July 21, the Library Board unanimously
agreed to take the next step toward a plan to
improve the Deerfield Public Library. Trustees
voted to put a referendum on the November
2010 general election ballot asking for funds
for the Library Improvement Plan. (See related
article.)
As President of the Deerfield Public Library
Board of Trustees, I am proud of the public
process used to develop the plan. A 23-member
Citizens Input Group (CIG) helped the Library
Board gather and evaluate feedback about
Library needs and options through a series of
seven community open houses in March and
June. The Board also sought input about
improvement options through an independent
telephone survey of community residents, as
well as one-on-one conversations.
As a result of what we heard, Library Trustees
combined elements from several options and
downsized the most ambitious improvement
suggestions. The Library Improvement Plan
expands on what is now available and possible.
It will bring our Library into the 21st centuiy
in order to provide Deerfield with the greatest
possible value from this important community
asset.
On behalf of the Libraiy Board, I want to thank
everyone who participated in this process by
sharing ideas, feedback, and questions.
Especially, we want to thank the members of
the Citizens Input Group for being the
additional eyes and ears for the Libraiy Board,
by helping trustees gather input from Deerfield
residents.
We look forward to talking with community
members over the next few months as we
provide more details about the Libraiy
Improvement Plan.
"•WS.
*6' Number 2
Library Improvement Plan
Over the past year, the Libraiy Board has carefully evaluated options for
improving our nearly 40-year-old libraiy building and its capacity to serve
Deerfield residents. Libraiy Trustees sought input from Deerfield residents and
studied how best to meet the libraiy service needs of our community now and
into the future.
At its July 21,2010 meeting, Libraiy Trustees reviewed all these findings and
voted unanimously to seek funding through a November 2010 referendum for a
Libraiy Improvement Plan. The plan will upgrade infrastructure, reconfigure
and renovate existing space, and expand the Libraiy by about 10,000 square feet.
The Deerfield Public Libraiy has been well used since the building opened
more than 39 years ago. Since 1971, Deerfield’s population has changed and
usage has increased. New types of materials, services, and technology have
expanded the ways residents can use and benefit from the Libraiy.
“While we’ve been able to update some services to meet changing needs, we
face challenges in delivering 21st-century service from a building that was built
in the last centuiy. Our residents deserve a full-service library that is better
able to meet the growing demands and changing needs of our community,” said
Ken Abosch, Library Board President.
After considering a range of options and reviewing community input, the
Libraiy Board developed a Libraiy Improvement Plan that it feels offers the
greatest value in the most cost-effective manner. The project is significantly
downsized from a 2004 referendum which sought to build a new libraiy. The
2010 referendum amount of $11,775 million is less than half of the amount
sought in 2004. The existing building will be renovated and expanded, providing
new and better spaces at a more economical cost. Exciting new areas and
features will be designed for flexibility to meet changing space and patron
needs into the future.
The Libraiy Board plans to spend $2 million of its reserves on the project. The
reserves were accumulated specifically for this type of need: to update and
replace infrastructure, or other capital project needs related to the building.
More information about the proposed Libraiy Improvement Plan is available on
the Library’s website at www.deerfieldlibraiy.org. In addition, Public
Information Meetings in September and October will provide architectural
conceptual drawings and more information about the project.

Stoichiometric Coefficients and
the Molar Ratios
“Sure.”
We suppose that there are some parents
who might say, “Cool - first check the
stoichiometric coefficients and the molar
ratios.” If you are that parent, skip this
article and go on to the next. If you’re not,
you need to know about Live Homework
Help from Tutor.com, a premium service
offered free by the Library that provides
real homework help from real, live tutors
online. Students K - 12, college-level
students and adult learners can receive
help in math, social studies, English or
science-including chemistiy. In fact, in
June, lOth-grade chemistiy students used
Tutor.com to ask questions just like the one
described above. Here’s one of the
comments from a chemistiy student about
the service: “My tutor was incredible. She
was able to help me out with a difficult
chem concept and she continued to give me
practice problems when she realized I was
still shaky.”
Access to Tutor.com is available free
through the Web site to all patrons at the
Library and available to Deerfield Public
Library cardholders from home seven
days a week from 2-9 p.m.

Classes Offered
Back by popular demand, the
Reference Department will
offer a one hour class on how
to use three of the library’s
electronic resources: the online
catalog, the gateway to busi
ness information, periodical
articles and telephone directo
ry, and an introduction to the
Internet.
The one- visit class will be
offered a variety of days and
times in September, October
and November. Each class is
limited to four people.
Registration and tickets are
required.
We are Proud
Deerfield resident Sarah Long,
Director of the North Suburban
Library System (NSLS) has
been elected president of the
57,000 member American
Library Association.
William Seiden, our library
board treasurer, has been elect
ed vice president of the board
of the NSLS.
Library employees Mary
Munday (Fiction Department)
and Taryn Nolen (Youth Ser
vices) have been awarded
scholarships from the Illinois
State Library to pursue gradu
ate degrees in Library Science.
Renovation Celebration!
Our newsletter and our library have a new look this fall! Plan to attend our star- studded
lineup of adult fall programs to celebrate our main floor renovation. When our videos
were in storage during renovation we realized how much our patrons enjoy movie enter
tainment. So we celebrate our “new look” with the STAR* theme during September and
October!
Join us for kickoff speaker tv personality Deerfield’s own Joel Weisman at 7 pm on
September 9 (reservations required). Our fall celebration series includes prizes, refresh
ments, music, a surprise “movie star” guest and entertaining programs. See page two for
star studded program details. Tell us your top five favorite movies and you’ll have a
chance to win free movie passes and free library (new) rental videos.
Focus on Youth Services Department
Now that the finishing touches are being put on the main floor renovation, architect Scott
Javore, the board and the staff are setting sights on renovation of the Youth Services
Department. Newly appointed department head Chris Kopeck said, “I am very excited
about the upcoming renovation. We are planning to keep the department child friendly,
but also make it more inviting for young adult patrons. We plan to separate the young
adult fiction and will be adding a study carrel and window seats. We will be increasing
shelf space in both the picture book room and the juvenile area. New carpeting and bright
colors will highlight the room. We will also be doubling the number of display cases. The
department will remain open during renovation, offering the same quality service, and we
want to thank patrons in advance for their patience.”
Chris Kopeck was selected from among several candidates for
the position of Head of the Youth Services Department. She
holds her Master’s Degree in Library Science from University
of Illinois and worked in a public library in Orlando, Florida
