Library Service for Residents of Unincorporated Areas
With the passage of Illinois Public Act 92-0166 in January, 2002, the rules have changed
for purchasing a library card if you live in Riverwoods, Bannockburn or unincorporated
areas of Deerfield. If you are new to the area or have never had library privileges, you
must bring in your current tax bill to determine the cost to you. If you hold a recently
expired non resident card, there is a grace period at the old rates.
The good news is that the new state law will allow you to have borrowing privileges at
other libraries with your non resident fee card.
If non-residents have a question, or wish to purchase a new card please see Joan or
Sidney at the Front Desk. Library cards are free to Village of Deerfield taxpayers.
�Adult Programs
Programs are free but reservations are requested. Many of these progams can be
seen at home by accessing our home page: www.deerfieldlibrary.org and

�“I was seven years old when the
library opened,” said Deerfield
resident Muriel Zahnle, (maid
en name Lemm) as she
recalled her first visit to the
:
original Deerfield Public
Library seventy-five years
ago. It was located inside the

“You have to understand I was looking at it from a little girl
perspective. We entered from the outside of the building,
through the white double doors. I could smell the new varnish
and marveled at the new shiny unmarked maple floors. The
windows were bright, with no coverings. The wood was light,
but there was no front desk like our library today. The librari
an Mrs. Wolff sat at a yellowish teacher’s desk. She stacked
the books on her desk as they were returned. We had cards to
sign books in and out, and Mrs. Wolff had a stamper. My
favorite books were the Bobbsey twins and all those other
twins books, the Eskimo twins, the Japanese twins, etc. The
books in those days were bound in one color: red, blue, etc.
and had few illustrations. The library was only in one room.”
“There was no furniture to sit on like we have today, and the
hours were 2-5 p.m. a few days a week as I recall. Mrs. Wolf
(the librarian) was always available and remembered your
name. She was a small, gentle person with large glasses who
serviced her readers, always finding the right book for the
right person. It was friendly because she made it friendly. She
had a card catalog but the budget must have been limited
because she always welcomed donations. I enjoyed her. Her
assistant was a young, slim Mrs. Dobbins.”
“I had never been in a library before. On a summer’s day my
girlfriends and I would walk across Waukegan Road (from
Osterman where Muriel lived), past the Standard Oil filling
station. We often stopped at Herman’s ice cream parlor.
(Deerfield Commons was a field.) We had room to roam and
could go safely. The library took care of activity during the
long summer; we had lots of time to browse. You could take
books out for several weeks but you couldn’t call the auto
matic renewal number from home like you can now! The
library was too small to be a social center as it is now;
instead, Deerfield was a small church community. It is such a
different town for me now.”
Muriel continued her visits to the library’s next home at the
758 Waukegan Rd., a converted storefront, and then to the
third site which is now the
West Deerfield Township

from home repair to chil

course she recalls when the library moved to its present loca
tion in 1971; she worked on the referendum that built this
library. “We love reading around the fireplace now.” A life

enjoys biography, drama,
and cookbooks. She espe
cially appreciated the
talking books when she
had problems with her
eyesight. As Muriel has
been a library user for 75

John A. Anderson Retires
from Library Board
After twenty- four
years of service, John
Anderson has moved
to Wauconda. He was
a Deerfield resident
for thirty- four years.
vr
First elected in 1977
and reelected in four
subsequent elections, Anderson’s
term spanned the period from when
the library was new all the way
through the recent renovations. He
provided leadership for two library
directors: Suzanne Whetstone and
Jack Hicks. A multi-faceted man,
Anderson was a strong advocate of
freedom of speech, access by all
residents to all forms of information
and of library literacy. He pressed
for renovation and the new comput
er system and he was instrumental
in bringing videos and other AV for
mats to the library. He said, “Many
problems were solved during my
tenure. I was glad to have been able
to contribute to this great library.”

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
The retirement of John Anderson from the
Library Board after twenty-four years of service
caused me to reflect on the fine board mem
bers who have served this library in the years
since the library was built. Many, like
Rosemary Sazonoff, were Deerfield stalwarts;
many were not known by the public but made
strong contributions to this library benefiting
the residents and the staff.
John was not the longest serving board member of memory. That
honor would go to former Board President Tom Parfitt, with current
President Sue Benn right behind in length of service. It is hard to sin
gle out individuals but some do stand out. Longtime Treasurer Tony
Sabato, who passed away last winter, taught me all I know about tax
levies and public finance. Rosemary Sazonoff taught me the power of
the press; Wilbur Page taught me respect for the physical plant and
how to take care of it. Sue Benn, especially, has shepherded me
through all our renovation projects for the past eight years and I owe
her more than I can tell. It is with sadness that we note the death of
former Board Member Charlene Reich in early May; she served with
distinction.
Currently the library has a mix of old and new board members. Sue
Benn brings over twenty years experience to the table, David Wolff
twelve years. Our younger members Don Van Arsdale, Sunday Mueller,
Jeff Blumenthal and Ken Abosch bring a renewed sense of energy and
enthusiasm as we look forward to long range planning and needed
community assessment to prepare ourselves for the future. Bill Seiden
has agreed to fill John Anderson’s position on an interim basis. This
board truly reflects the residents of Deerfield and will be a great asset
as we move into the reality of the information age.
As if we needed proof that it is indeed a small world we live in,
this spring Bill Seiden, current President of the North Suburban Library
System Board, and I were in Washington, D.C. for the American Library
Association’s Legislative Day. At the debriefing session held after a
long day on Capitol Hill I chanced to look over at one of our fellow
library advocates. I asked him immediately if he was the Don McCurry
who served so ably on the Deerfield Public Library Board twenty years
ago. Don’s reponse was, “How in the world did you know that?” It was
easy. Don had been a great board member. He had made strong contri
butions to the library, and had make a lasting impression. He was in
Washington as a board member of the Northern Illinois Library System
headquartered in Rockford. It seems Don has been involved in library
service for many years.
At this point it finally occurred to me that as boards have a
tremendous impact on their libraries, so do libraries have a lasting
effect on the board members themselves. It was a fine moment when I
introduced a current board member to one from many, many years ago.
Past and present became one, leading me to feel confident about this
library’s future.
