Story on page 2
60 YEAR REFLECTION
�From the Director
We are in year three of our Strategic Plan,
developed in 2016 after months of work.
We surveyed Library patrons to gather their
feedback about what they want in their Library.
The staff and board are proud of the work that
has been accomplished. We have increased unique types of items
in the collection, added a self-checkout station for ease, adjusted
check out periods and added new spaces for our youngest patrons
in the Youth Services Department
In response to the enhanced emphasis in education for science
and math, the Library has responded with an increase in
technology programs. Some of our most popular programs have
been rooted in the maker technology. The maker movement is a
technology-based extension of DIY culture that intersects with
computer culture. This focus has coincided with our interest in
repurposing some of our space.
In 2018, the staff and board began working with Product Architecture
& Design, a firm that specializes in creating flexible library spaces.
We evaluated various options for reconfiguring our physical collection,
and have decided to repurpose the space that houses our DVD and
CD collection. We anticipate that we will see this transformation to
begin in the summer of 2019. We will be moving the Media Desk
from a somewhat hidden position to a more accessible location. This
new collaborative workspace will provide our community innovative
access to technology. We are excited to invigorate the space, and will
provide further details as plans develop.

Deerfield 1959: New Insights
At the end of 2018, the Libraiy launched a new website, The Fight to Integrate Deerfield: 60 Year Reflection (deerfieldlibrarj.org/FID).
The website documents an important and complex time in the history of Deerfield and the United States. With the website, the Library
is presenting an array of special programs and exhibits to illuminate our community’s stoiy.
This is not a new story. There were community programs on the 1959 integration crisis for the 40- and 50-year anniversaries, and it has
been part of the Deerfield schools’ curriculum for years. This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for
our archives, new revelations, and several recent and forthcoming books and projects that feature Deerfield’s integration case.
Website
The new website includes online exhibits,
interviews, discussion guides, booklists,
a timeline of events, and our historical
archives. This will serve as the online
home for our resources for years to come
so that, beyond our program series,
future generations will have access to the
materials.
Historical Archives
The preservation of our physical archives
has been an important component of our
60 year reflection project. Standout items
in the newly digitized history collection
include newspaper articles quoting
Eleanor Roosevelt and Martin Luther
King Jr., anti-integration editorials, and
items related to the formation of the pro
integration Deerfield Citizens for Human
Rights.
Exhibits
2
Temporary exhibits will feature original
primary source materials including
propaganda, protest handouts, newspaper
articles, and rare photographs on loan
from the Art Shay Archives. Exhibits
will be on display in several locations
throughout the Library for the duration
of the program series.
for the Library’s permanent collection.
The photos represent a documentary and
artistic record of the fight over integrated
housing in Deerfield.
Art Shay Photographs
Share Your Story
A generous donation from the Friends of
the Deerfield Public Libraiy has made
possible the purchase of two photographs
by longtime Deerfield resident and
world-renowned photographer, Art Shay,
We are interested in personal stories,
memories, contemporary reflections, and
physical documents related to the fight to
integrate Deerfield. If interested, email

A RuffRoad, Home: The
Court Case Dogs ofChicago
Tuesday, July 19, 7:00-8:30pm
Real People, Real Stones
is a new series which focuses
on ordinary people with
extraordinary stories.
Not long ago, Chicagoland animals
seized from neglectful or criminally
charged owners were viewed solely
as evidence. They were rescued, but
then languished in a kennel until
their owners’ court cases concluded,
and then they were typically
euthanized. In 2010, Safe Humane
Chicago launched the Court Case
Dogs program - a not-for-profit
group that gets these animals
rehabilitated and adopted. Cynthia
Bathurst, co-founder of Safe Humane
Chicago, will discuss this thriving
program and its team of volunteers,
dog trainers, behavioral consultants,
partner organizations and lastly, the
court case dogs who moved beyond
their histories and into homes of
people who love them. A RuffRoad
Home by Susan Russell will be
available for purchase. Due to
sensitive material, please no
children under 10. ©

Changes in the
Library seem to be
everywhere, and the H
remodeling has not even begun!
Interested community members
can learn more about the Library’s
proposed design concepts and
progress through the approvals
process at public information
sessions in June. (See details
below).
i
.
While we are busy designing the
remodeling and expansion, we
have also been installing
improvements and “testing” new
services for the existing Library.
The addition of automated check
out stations and check-in conveyor
system are the most visible
examples. Initial public reaction
has been strongly positive, and
many patrons say they are
surprised by how quick and easy it
is to use. The most frequent patron
concern we have heard is the fear
that our fine staff members may
lose their employment as a result
of automation. This is not the case!
Patrons will continue to see
familiar faces ready to offer
assistance throughout the Libraiy.
Come visit us soon!

Here’s Susan Karp,
president of the
Friends of the

Library, checking out
the new Self-Checkout

Chicago Botanic Garden when showing your
Deerfield Public Library card will allow you to
park for free while you explore the treasures
of the great garden—including the Lenhardt

greenhouse—houses an extensive specialized
collection of almost 30,000 titles, including
books, DVDs, periodicals, nursery catalogs
and the archives of the Chicago Horticultural
Society. Get to know the Lenhardt, and spend
the day exploring the Botanic Garden free
just by showing your Deerfield Public Library
card when you pull up to the entiy gate.

to fund one of the new Self-Checkout Stations.

sale at the Deerfield Farmers Market on Saturday, September 17,
2011.
• Used books are sold during regular Library hours in the first floor
meeting room. Please pay for books at the Patron Services desk. The
Friends continue to accept gently used hardback and paperback
books, as well as CD’s and DVD’s. We ask that households donate only
two shopping bags or boxes per week. Please bring donations to the
Patron Services Desk.
• The Friends need volunteers from the community to help sort and
shelve the used book donations. Any amount of time and help is
appreciated. Please contact the Friends for more information.
• The Board of the Friends will meet on August 24 at 7 p.m. at the

17,000 pounds of early childhood
development - will be rolling into the
Library’s parking lot on Saturday, June
25. Basically an interactive children’smuseum-on-wheels built to a child’s
scale, the StoryBus was launched by the
Delores Kohl - as in Kohl Children’s
Museum - Education Foundation and
aimed at pre-readers Pre-K through
Kindergarten. A visit to the StoryBus
immerses children in four popular
stories, including “Goldilocks and the
Three Bears,” “The Little Red Hen,”
“The Gingerbread Man,” and “The Three
Little Pigs.” The kids participate in the
creation of each story, helping the
characters and even providing
alternative endings. Plus, there are great
follow-up activities and suggestions on
their website, including how to keep
storytime at home active, fresh, and fun.
For other ideas on how to encourage
children to want to read, ask any of our
Youth Services staff for ideas - they’re
the experts!

Volunteer Opportunities @ the Library
Teen Advisory Board
Join the Teen Advisory Board! As a TAB member you can help come up with
programming ideas for teens at the Library, talk about books, magazines, movies, and
music with other Deerfield teens, help create content for the library’s website, and
more. If you are interested in becoming a member call or email
reference@deerfieldlibrary.org and ask for Madeline, the teen services liaison.
A public library is—among
many other good things—
public. Common sense (and
Library policy, by the way)
says that parents and
caregivers must stay with
children under nine. In
addition, be mindful of
purses, backpacks, laptops,
or anything else of value; and
let Library staff know of any
suspicious activities right
away. Have you noticed we
have added security cameras
at each Library entrance?

Across the
Librarian's Desk
r
irst of all, I would like to thank the
voters who supported the Library
referendum. They grasped that a new
library is needed in Deerfield and that it
would be an exciting resource for the whole
community, providing a wider range of
educational, cultural, and information ser
vices to everyone. Also, I would like to thank
Bill Darrow and the Friends of the Library
for their enthusiastic efforts on our behalf.
Secondly, I truly appreciate the thoughtful
endorsement of the Library referendum made
by the editorial staff of the Deerfield Review.
Diverse opinions as shown in the ballot box
are the foundation and the beauty of a
democracy. That’s why the Library chose to
go to the voters to determine if the desire to
expand the Library was reflected in the
community. After three years of planning, we
knew it was important to hear what all the
residents had to say. We had tried our best to
publicize our planning process: we had
articles in every issue of our Browsing
newsletter for the past three years and
numerous articles in the Deerfield Review,
plus our one-thousand-respondent citizen
survey and twelve focus groups. We held a
library open house and provided ample
settings for the community to ask questions.
The next step would have been to hire an
architect and a library consultant to design a
library and produce architectural plans. That
step would, by necessity, have been a very
expensive one. Before that was done, we
needed to know exactly what the residents
were willing to pay for.

25 Years of Cooperation Between the
Deerfield Schools and the Library!
Students’ lack of library know-how led Geri Spinella, (then a language arts teacher,
now assistant principal of Caruso Middle School), to consult with Jack Hicks, (then
a reference librarian, now library director) to begin a joint library instruction
program that has been running for 25 years. The program was designed to bring
students into the public library to learn how to use library resources. Jack Hicks
said, “Our goal was to widen students’ horizons for doing their assignments. We
have many resources that the schools do not have. As Deerfield Library was among
the first libraries in Illinois to
offer new information tech
nology, Geri was anxious for
students to learn new tech
nologies. Also, since we are
open evenings and weekends,
students can come in to use
library materials after school
hours...good value for
Deerfield taxpayers whose
children are in school!”
This program requires hours
of coordination between the
teacher and the librarian, scheduling times, selecting topics, and preparing many
resources. Once here the students also work with the Youth Services and
Circulation Departments. The Library welcomes this opportunity to show young
users what the public library has to offer, particularly online magazine databases
with full-text articles, available for printing or emailing. Also, the students are
pleased to find that, with their library cards, they can use home internet access to
reach the Library’s online databases.
This January and February eight Caruso Middle School classes came into the
Library twice for an hour each time to pursue their personal research projects.
Coordinators were Judy Hortin, Head of Reference, and Caruso language arts
teacher Leslie Gordon. Leslie, who has been with the program for 20 years, said,
“For many of our students, it is an eye opening experience to see how much they
can find in the Library on one topic.”
Both the Library and Caruso hope that this cooperative mission gives students a
skill that will serve them throughout their academic careers and beyond.

continued from page 1
Built in 1970, and not designed for technolo
gy, our building has reached the limits of its
structure. All available space has been used.
Starting in 1991 and ending in 1996, the
Library underwent renovations to maximize
the use of the space potential in the building
and bring it as close as possible to Americans
with Disabilities Act standards. Those
renovations were designed to give the Library ten to fifteen years
added lifespan. The goals of the remodeling have been reached but
can go no further.
Over the past three years, through surveys and resident input we
have heard clearly that our residents want the Library to remain
where it is in the center of town. We have also heard from residents
that they want more services, more meeting room space, more
programs, books and other materials. Currently, we must turn a
sympathetic but deaf ear to these requests.
The result of the vote leaves us with few immediate options other
than to redefine service within the present building. Library staff are
pursuing alternatives for the replacement of the roof membrane, air
handlers, and air conditioning condensers and compressors. These
repairs can mean expensive investment in an aging structure. The
vote also means the closing of the window of opportunity to pur
chase adjacent property for logical expansion. A number of civic
leaders have spoken about the importance of this quadrant remaining
the “governmental” quadrant, but that is now beyond Library control.
Some people have urged me to move heaven and earth to purchase
the apartment building to the north of the Library. Such a move
would break faith with the intentions of the taxpayers and is not one
I will initiate. Though loss of that land limits our future options,
frankly we do not have the resources to purchase that building—that
would take third-party intervention.
This is the first time in thirty-five years we have asked Deerfield
taxpayers to approve a referendum. The Library, in fact, has a
spotless record of operating within budget over those thirty-five
years. Much has been said about the size and cost of our proposed
library. In the past ten years, all over the United States, there has
been a renaissance of library building. At the same time more than
twenty-five libraries have been built in Chicagoland. We are very
familiar with all of this construction and the opportunities it has
brought to their communities.
These new libraries do indeed represent a point of departure over
libraries of the past. The communities that have built new libraries
have observed that in the age of Internet, the need for library service
has not diminished but has grown. Contemporary libraries are techni
cally and structurally complex buildings that are expensive. Add to
that the fact that structural steel and aluminum have risen in price
over 30% in the past year, and the cost of new libraries comes into
perspective.
We will continue to do what we have always done best: address the
needs of the community for the future and keep abreast of emerging
library trends in technology, programs, services, and materials. To
those ends the Board has been working with the Executive Service
Corps to begin work on a strategic plan that will address the future of
this building and user services, all based on progressive professional,
personal service. The Board is committed to providing vision and
leadership to ensure that the Library is not on a trajectory that could
see it fall behind libraries in neighboring communities.

Librarian in the Lobby:
Now in 10th Year!
On the second Saturday of each month,
(September 8, October 13 and
November 10) from 9 a.m. to noon in
the library lobby, library visitors can
talk informally with Administrative
Librarian Jack Hicks along with one of
the members of the library board of
trustees. As a result of these years of
active listening, many changes in tech
nology, in services, in policies and in
the building itself have been made in
response to patron suggestions. This
“longest running focus group in town”
has also improved accountability and
visibility for library administrators who
are more in touch with day to day
library issues.

I never thought I would live to see Pearl Harbor
become a commodity. The Pearl Harbor attack was
a national tragedy whose effect we feel sixty years
after it happened. Now we have a film of the sneak
attack which not only gets history very wrong but
sanitizes the whole event into politically correct
entertainment. For many reasons, this film is a dis
service to both history and the men and women
who died on December 7th, 1941. For the U.S.,
Pearl Harbor was perhaps the formative event of the 20th Century. It has
dominated U.S. military and foreign policy for sixty years. I am not criti
cizing the current film, in fact its use of computer animation is nothing
short of fantastic, but I am criticizing Hollywood’s misuse of history.
Why worry about a film's inaccurate portrayal of an historic event?
Recent studies indicate that less than 50% of the American public reads
anything at all—no magazines, no newspapers, no books, no recipes,
nothing. That is a disgraceful problem. If half the people get all their
information and form decisions based on what they hear on radio, see on
tv, and watch at the movies, and all history is presented via the media in
the form of special effects entertainment, we as a nation are trading on
the dangerous ground of delusion. To think that people watch Oliver
Stone's warped versions of history and do not know that these films are
gross distortions is a sobering, upsetting, notion. The old adage is true: a
person who doesn't read is no better off than the person who can't read.
Not long ago a young man writing an honors paper about Pearl Harbor
asked me if I could help him with his research. His thesis was simple: the
Japanese had attacked Pearl Harbor in order to get control of the atomic
bomb. When I showed him that the atomic bomb did not exist at the time
of Pearl Harbor, that in fact the bomb existed only as a response to that
attack, the young man recoiled at the idea. Why then did the Japanese
mount the attack? When I showed him that the attack was aimed at
destroying the American Navy, he became incredulous and quite hostile.
Why on earth would the Japanese do that? Why indeed? The recent
film doesn’t give anyone a clue, it provides no historical context, draws
bizarre conclusions, presents a depersonalized catastrophe as history. If
the film had just stuck to drama it would be fine, but as presented it dis
graces an event that is sacred in American history.
I guess there is another deep down, nagging, issue for me. So many
films like Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, Apocalypse Now, The Thin
Red Line, even the goofy Patton, (with a notable exception of the absur
dist noir classic, Dr. Strange!ove,) pose as anti-war films. It gives them a
chic legitimacy, a closer look convinces that these are not anti-war films
at all. At heart they are anti-military, yet glory in death, violence, and
atrocity. It doesn’t trouble me that people flock to see films that revel in
violence, it bothers me that they accept what they have seen as truth and
fact. If you need to see an anti-war film look at All Quiet on the Western
Front, or Glory. If you want to see the real results of war, look at Shoah,
The Sorrow and the Pity, The Best Years of Our Lives, or the chilling
recent Macedonian film, Before the Rain. For anti-war films that pull no
punches, find the older Japanese films, Harp of Burma or Fires on the
Plain. Better than that, read any recent Time article about the Serbian
massacres at Suva Reka. But if history must be learned from film and
media, look at sources that put history into clear focus, not films that
ask us to accept death as entertainment and distorted history as reality.

Take a book to bed, not to bath!
Books and water don’t mix. Literally hundreds
of books have been returned to the library in a
dampened, unusable condition. Since others
are waiting for the book you have on loan,
please handle carefully and remember that
other people want to read this same book.
When the library must replace a damaged
book, there is a charge for the book and an
additional $5.00 processing fee. Why? Glenn
Poch, Head of Technical Services, says that
book (and cassette) processing is time con
suming and costly. We cannnot simply switch
with a new book from a book store. Often we
buy books specifically bound for heavy library
use. Preparationfor patron use includes: with
drawing the damaged book, reordering, receiv
ing, invoicing, cataloging, adding to our data
base, labeling, adding security & date due
slips, laminating and stamping. Also add the
cost of bar codes and other materials to staff
time. It takes a whole Technical Services
Department to handle withdrawing, purchas
ing, and preparation of the materials you and
others want to borrow!

Across the
Librarian’s
Desk
It is with a pang of real sadness
that I note the passing of Steve
Allen. To many of us from my gen
eration he is remembered as a very
talented and creative man who, if
he did not invent late night televi
sion, certainly put his mark on it.
The late night talk show hosts as
personified by Jack Paar, Johnny
Carson, Jay Leno, David
Letterman, or Conan O’Brien owe
much to Steve Allen. Their format
and style is one that he invented
and perfected. His talent and origi
nality have never been equaled and
his presence will be missed. A man
for all seasons, he was a composer,
a comedian, a writer, an actor and a
serious thinker. He was a Chicago
boy and his death speaks to my
youth.
Old timers like myself always
talk of the “golden age of televi
sion” with reverence. Whether reverence is deserved or not is beside
the point. We remember it that way,
and there is no way to convince us
dial TV is alive and well and better
than ever. I clearly remember the
first television event that I ever
saw—the Ezzard Charles and Jersey
Joe Walcott title fight of 1948 or ‘49.

Library Entrance Lobby Redesigned
A brighter and more welcoming entrance to the library will soon be completed by
architect D.F Wrobleski, who was the architect for the library’s lower level Fiction
Room and Youth Services Department. Wrobleski said this was required to be in
compliance with ADA standards. The original floor’s surface had become very irregular
and dangerous.
“This is an opportunity to install a new, light colored floor and doors to increase a
sense of welcome to the library. Furthermore, the exterior concrete was cracked by
winter snow melt and is being replaced with a more decorative stone and brick. Two
stone planters will be installed to separate the building from the parking lot” he said.
For those fond of the front lobby water fountain, a memorial to Deerfield’s Donald
McCabe, be assured that it will remain; it will be redesigned a little smaller to make the
library more accessible and will be set on a circular rose marble base to make it safer
for traffic in and out of the library.
Since the ADA required renovation, the library board took this opportunity to
enhance and update the library lobby and make the entrance safer for everyone.
Blumenthal Selected for Library Board
Jeff Blumenthal, a Chicago native who has
lived in Deerfield for 11 years has been
appointed by the board from among a number
of applicants to fill the unexpired term of
Yvonne Sharpe. Sharpe, a board member since
1992, has moved to Riverwoods.
Blumenthal, a civil litigation lawyer for
Foran & Schultz, spends a great deal of time
in the library, “It’s my home away from home”
said Blumenthal who loves to read and often
brings his wife and three children. He is a
graduate of Northwestern where he majored in
liberal arts and has his law degree from the
University of Pennsylvania.
Village manager Robert D. Franz (left)
swears in Jeff Blumenthal as a new
library board member.
The Library will be closed:
December 24,25,31 and
January 1.

Across the Librarian’s Desk (cont.)
I watched with my Dad at a local saloon; the
bartender confided to us that he had a lock on
TV in my hometown, “because he got into TV
on the ground floor.” I think that set had a six
inch circular screen and the bar is now a parking
lot. Reminds me more than a bit of today’s
dot.com frenzy.
So much has changed in American life in the
past fifty years it is impossible to get a frame of
reference or to see the scope of those changes.
Certainly the younger generation has no idea
what we are talking about when we use terms
like “Stalin ” “cold war” or “golden age of tele
vision." Why should they? For them man has
always been on the moon, they have always had
cell phones, pagers, and post-it notes. Viet Nam
is a country, not an issue tearing generations
apart. They have no idea what it meant to say
“I Like Ike” and really love a presidential candi
date. The young don’t know Watergate, maybe
Iran-Contra and the Gulf War..... events distort
ed by TV.
In a way, television is a microcosm of the
past fifty years. It started off simply, got our
attention, developed a persona, went from black
and white to color and took off in complexity
and controversy. The first coast-to-coast broad
casts were events everyone watched with awetelevision could span the continent. Many of us
sat transfixed by Joseph Welch and Joe
McCarthy. There were the first presidential
debates, the moonwalk, the assassinations. At
the same time TV got very shallow and compli
cated, losing its originality in the quest for cor
porate profit. Style and content went by the
wayside and the medium was branded a “Vast

Wasteland.” Edward R. Murrow, our best TV
newsman, warned that without standards televi
sion was nothing more than “lights and wires in
a box.”
In many ways the real golden age of televi
sion is now. Cable, satellite dishes, DVD, com
puter animation, and now instant live program
ming delay are all significant technological
advances. Picture quality and program availabil
ity are nothing short of sensational. There is
something on television, cable, or dish twentyfour hours a day, seven days a week. Events that
happen half a world away are instantly shown
on TV as they happen. It is absolutely a techno
logical marvel, but somehow we are poorer for
it all. The media can show us events, but puerile
analysts cannot tell us what the events mean or
why it happened. TV reality has become, after
all, a light show in a box with all the intelli
gence and integrity of a kids video game.
So the passing of Steve Allen has special
poignancy for those of my generation. His talent
and originality are missed; we are left with a
void not met by corporate minions. Lights in a
box will never challenge us, inspire us, or make
us laugh. I believe the golden age of TV is now
because of the stupendous technology, but I also
firmly know the golden age of talent has long
since passed. Jackie Gleason, Edward R.
Murrow, Ernie Kovacs, Steve Allen, to name
only a few, are talents we will never see again
because they could never slither through the fil
ter of the corporate sieve. I recommend Hi-Ho,
Steverino! by Steve Allen for a glimpse into this
American original.

that they are harbingers, arbiters, and
decision makers when it comes to
taste, culture, education and all things
literary. Especially in the growth and
development of their own library's
collection and services. I am as guilty
of this as any librarian. Sometimes
events bring you down to earth.
This past winter saw the deaths of
two long-time Deerfield Library
patrons — Marion Cole and Sam Fosdick. They were both great library
users who guided us, chided us, and
led the Library to provide many of the
materials and services we offer today.

Summer Reading Club begins June 13. There will be
three groups this summer — (all grade levels indicate the
grade the child will enter in the fall):
READ-TO-ME: Pre-school through 1st grade.
EARLY READERS: 2nd and 3rd grade.
OLDER READERS: 4th grade and up.
Save the Date: August 1,10 a.m. for Discovery Day:
Games, treats, and activities to celebrate a summer of good
reading.
Both Marion and Sam knew how to
use libraries, what a library should be,
and how a librarian can mediate and
facilitate the use of the collection to
the public. They were both lifetime
readers.
Reflecting on Sam and Marion as
patrons and people makes me realize
how important and close the relation
ship is that develops between a
library, its librarians and the residents.
Librarians often forget the tremendous
impact the patrons have on what we
do, who we are, and how we do it. I
guess modern marketing would say

• Librarian's Desk (continued fromP. i)
we are client-driven. In the case of
Sam and Marion I would say we
were gently led to do our best.
Marion's influence on reference
service in this Library cannot be
overstated. She insisted on a high
level of service, interlibrary loan, and
a strong reference collection. Marion
never accepted a lame or tired
answer in lieu of real service. She
helped set our standards for refer
ence and made us live up to them.
Sam was a dapper and urbane
gentleman who expected exactly the
same high level of service. His rogu
ish but gentle sense of humor often
concealed a very incisive message.
Sam's advice about our Business Ref
erence Room has changed how that
room is organized, what we have in
there, and how the staff interprets
the collection to the public.
Knowing and working with Mar
ion and Sam for so many years was
always interesting. Many people
think a public library would be a
great place to work if you could just
keep the public out. It is wonderful
patrons like Marion and Sam who
make library work and developing
that library — its services and collec
tion — so rewarding and such a plea
sure. There are so many people who
have influenced us over such a long
period of time that it would be hard to
name them all. Libraries are indeed peo
ple places. Two of them, Marion and
Sam, both people I am glad to have
known, will be missed by all of us.

A statistic that sur
faced as we pre
pared our "Brief
History of the
Deerfield Library"
— In 1930 we cir
culated 1000 books
per month; in 1991’92, we circulated
1000 per day! Yet Deerfield Library
takes the smallest bite (2.5%) of the
Village property tax payment and
serves all ages.
***
William Cormier reports a record 250
people came to the library for free tax
assistance offered by the AARP and
the IRS this year. That's 100 more than
last year. Changes in the tax laws this
year may have prompted the increased
activity.
* * 14-
Summer's here. Please take care of our
cassettes, videos and CD's! Don't leave
them in the hot sun or the hot car.
