Message from the Director
It’s the little things...
Can you guess the patron
comment I receive most
often? It is the request
for drive-up book drops
outside the Library. In
writing, via phone, or
email, even at social or
business gatherings, someone always mentions
this highly desired convenience. Well, our
Library Trustees and staff members have heard
this request loud and clear, and found a way to
provide it. By the time you read this, there
should be two drive-up drop boxes near the front
entrance to the Library—one for books, and one
for all types of audio-visual materials. I look
forward to receiving your comments about them!
We continue to listen. Our Board members
are going to be available in our lobby and other
public places such as the Farmers Market from
time to time. We hope you’ll stop by and
say hello.
We soon will be holding public sessions to
solicit your feedback about the findings of the
space needs and architectural review of our
building. This will be the opportunity for
residents across the community to have a
voice in the future plans for the Library. Please
consider participating.
We know it takes time to turn dreams and
ideas into reality, so we continue to test ideas
and learn from them. One example is the Teen
area we are creating, adjacent to the
Multimedia collections. We will use what we
learn there to plan even better spaces and
services for teens in the future.
Here is one thing you won’t have long to
wait for—at the end of the summer we will
launch our new automation system. More about
its features and conveniences are detailed in
this edition. We think you’ll be amazed! Our
staff members will help you test-drive the
system at the Library or from home, so you can
make full use of its features.
We are constantly looking for ways to serve
you better. We hope you believe we are
succeeding.
New Library Catalog Helps You Find Your Way!
Find everything you need in the Library’s new
online catalog of books, movies, magazine
articles, and more. The new catalog “goes live”
on August 18. Whether you are in the Library or
surfing from home, you can er\joy this fast, easy
resource on any computer at any time.
The new catalog looks and acts much like what
you find on your favorite retail sites. You can
see book covers and reviews, ei\joy one-click
searching of other area libraries, and sign up to
receive alerts when new items of interest arrive
at the Library. We want to reward your explor
ing. Beginning August 18 you can use your Deerfield Public Library card to
enter an online drawing for a GPS navigation system. If you haven’t used your
Library card in a while, you may need to re-register at our Circulation desk.
Please bring one piece of identification with your current address and we’ll be
happy to update your account.
In order to successfully move from one catalog to another, the Library will be
closed all day Sunday, August 16 and Monday, August 17. Please do not return
materials between Thursday, August 13 and Thursday, August 20. Loan periods
will be extended on all items that would normally be due during that week.
Architectural Review Progress Report
The Deerfield Public Library Board has engaged PSA-Dewberry, an
architectural and engineering firm, to evaluate our current Library and
report the findings to the board and community. The process includes:
• assessing the current building structure and systems,
• conversing (focus groups) with representative members of the community,
staff, and board about perceived current and future needs,
• evaluating space needs and trends in libraries, and
• comparing our library building, staffing, circulation and other key
measurements with peer libraries serving similarly sized populations.
A preliminary report of the building found that the structure appears solid,
although the building systems need significant upgrades or replacement. In
addition, building codes have changed since the 1970s when the current
Library was built. The architects expect to finish the current space needs
assessment and report to the board, staff, and community by summer. We
plan to hold public sessions to review the architects’ findings and recommen
dations, and to solicit your feedback. Afterward, the Library Board will
determine any next steps that may take place.

Message from the
Director
Bravo, Judy Hortin!
Our steadfast Head
of Reference, Judy
Hortin, is retiring
after nearly twenty
years of dedicated
service to our com
munity and library.
Never one to draw attention to herself,
Judy wants to slip quietly out the door
without fanfare. Nevertheless, we know
many of you will miss her nearly as
much as we will, so we pay special
tribute to her in our newsletter.
Thank you, Judy, for the strong
example you have set of excellent
service and professionalism.
“A person’s a person,
no matter how small. ”
— Dr. Seuss, Horton Hears a Who!
r.
s4tx\
“There are no small questions. ”
— Judy Hortin
When Judy Hortin retires from her
position as Head of Reference at the
end of the summer, it’s the stories of
the people she’s worked with and helped,
not the ones printed in books, that will mean the most to her.
“What I’ll miss most is the mix of working with people and the intellectual
stimulation of the brain. I really eryoy being around people who care about
the same things that I do—cultural pursuits,” said Hortin.
Iron Chef Deerfield
Which teen’s cuisine
reigns supreme? Iron
f
Chef Deerfield, a
cooking competition
for high school stu
dents based on the
popular TV show, pre
mieres at 2 p.m. on October 18. Six teams of
teens (up to three per team) will show off
their improv cooking chops to a live audi
ence. After learning their surprise ingredi
ents, these budding chefs will have one
hour and access to the Library’s extensive
cookbook collection to plan and prepare a
meal to serve our discerning tasting panel.
This program is part of the American
Library Association’s Teen Read Week,
“Books with Bite.” All materials will be
provided by the Library. Space is limited,
so please call (847) 945-3311 ext. 19 to
reserve your place.
■>
Fortunately for Judy’s coworkers, her definition of culture is a broad one.
One of Judy’s most lasting contributions to Deerfield Public Library’s cultural
archive will be her fearless, and often funny, song stylings—a children’s
classic at the holidays, custom lyrics to a popular tune, some Civil War ditty
that she claims she dug up while answering a reference question.
Library Director Mary Pergander thanks Judy for “the strong example she has
set of excellent service and professionalism.” Judy’s patience, kindness, sense
of fun, and passion for helping others will remain models for all who had the
great joy of working with her.
Coming Soon: Live Homework Help!
The Library will offer Tutor.com, which provides trained and trusted
tutors to provide individual assistance to students of all ages online.
Log on and learn this fall!

A concerned parent remarked that we
seemed to be favoring boys over girls in some
recent youth programming. Temporarily, that
was true. We received grant money to pro
mote reading among boys, based on evidence
that some boys need focused assistance to be
strong readers. The grant and additional local
funding allowed us to offer several boy-target
ed reading programs. We are delighted that
many girls have requested extra attention,
too, and we now offer reading clubs for girls,
as well. And of course, both boys and girls
ei\joy reading to our furry, four-legged K-9
Reading Buddies each month. For more infor
mation about reading programs for girls
and/or boys, see our fall book discussions!

New Look for Library

According to a new study, Americans spend an average of 32.7
hours a week online. That’s why we’ve redesigned the
Libraiy’s ‘Virtual branch.” It’s now easier than ever for you to
use Library resources when you’re online. The new web site
features an updated calendar of Library events; recommended
web sites for adults, teens, and children; lists of bestsellers
and award-winners that take you directly into the Library’s
catalog; and online forms for asking a librarian a question.

�Message from the
Director
You’ve spoken,
and we’ve lis
tened and made
changes. If
there is a
theme to this
newsletter
issue, that is it!
Many of you have expressed frus
tration in the past over our fee
structures, limits on materials, and
renewal limits. Well, we have
dropped some of these and loos
ened up others (although they
aren’t all gone!) The goal is to give
you more of what you want and less
of what you don’t want. Read about
these changes on the front page.
We have also launched a new web
site, designed to help you find what
you are seeking more easily. We’ve
added many new features, and
more are yet to come. We hope
you’ll agree that this is a big
improvement!
During the summer months, watch
for some colorful, comfortable new
additions to the furnishings in the
Youth Services department. A few
similar touches may appear in
other departments, as well.
Although we are planning substan
tial interior improvements for the
future, we realize that a few
updates will brighten the Library
and make coming here more enjoy
able. We want to help build antici
pation for the other positive
changes to come!
Stop by and see for yourself,

In the early 1990s, the Simon family began
a memorial fund for the Library, in honor
of their daughter Amy Simon. The funds
were used primarily for certain types of
children’s books and to promote reading
for children. The fund grew over the years
as other family members contributed.
Although the fund was terminated in 2006
many children’s books continued to
receive the memorial nameplate. Today,
there are dozens of these titles. To show
appreciation for the Simon family’s gen
erosity through the years, the Youth
Services department recently created a
special display of some of the Simon Fund
memorial books, which are available for
check-out. The display, updated regularly,
will run through May 2008.

Library Puppet Theater
Celebrates 30 Years

Jack Hicks and Chris Kopeck
prepare for the 2003 show.
The Library’s Punch and Judy Players will celebrate their 30th birthday with a
performance of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic —Treasure Island - an exciting
tale of pirates Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. (space limited, register
early!) For all ages!
The Library’s puppet theater was built in 1973 by Administrative Librarian Jack
Hicks and was intended to last no longer than two or three years. That first year the
theater was featured as the Library’s float in the Fourth of July Family Days Parade
and was the focus of a summer long puppet workshop for sixth graders in the
Youth Services Department.
What grew out of a $400 gift from the Deerfield Newcomers Club in 1973 has
'M
.1
now lasted 30 years and entertained thousands of children and their parents. Thanks
r t
v
Newcomers.
That first year saw the beginning of a repertoire puppet company—The Punch
and Judy Players—which over the years has staged hundreds of performances. The
plays remain the old standards—Sleeping Beauty, Treasure Island, Rumplestiltskin,
Puss in Boots, Beauty and the Beast, St. George and the Dragon, Pecos Bill, Frog and
Toad, Anansi the Spider, Three Billy Goats Gruff, as well as some written by Library
staff—Dinosaurs in Deerfield and Masters of the Hidden Planet.
The Punch and Judy Players themselves come from all the
Departments in the Library— Jack Hicks and Sally Brickman,
fy?
Administration; Chris Kopeck and Cindy Schilling from Youth Services;
Judy Hortin from Reference Services; Sidney Barnes, Circulation; and
many others over the past 30 years. Our puppets were all designed and
hand sewn by our Staff Artist, Betty Reschke. One of our greatest
rewards comes when young parents relate to us that they saw a perfor
mance at the Library when they were young and they have now brought
their children to see Punch and Judy.
Some people have asked why we still do puppet plays in the age of
video and computer games. Simply because puppets are a counterpoint to
Hollywood and TV. You do not need computers, play stations, Dolby,
Panavision, Rambo, Power Rangers or Bat Man to entertain children and
they get a full and steady dose of that kind of electronic entertainment
elsewhere. We are convinced that puppetry reflects literature, encourages children to read,
and makes the books they have read come alive to them. The puppets are in a child’s
scale, they are a live performance, they stimulate imagination, and they are not seen
elsewhere with any regularity. So, we invite one and all to celebrate 30 years with us as
we perform an old favorite—Treasure Island.

“This Library is Like a Great
Gift in My Life”
J
udging by the Spring, 2003 community survey prepared by the Public Opinion
Laboratory of Northern Illinois University, many area residents share the feeling of
the patron whose comments headline this article.
The POL’s random telephone survey of 1,003 library users found that the library is serv
ing the community well, with a great deal of satisfaction regarding current hours of
operation and high positive ratings. “86% of library users rate Deerfield Library as
“excellent, or very good”. Highest ratings went to a “helpful/knowledgeable staff’.
A very large 85% of respondents were library cardholders and 73% of respondents had
visited the library in the past 12 months.
How do people use the library? Five main reasons include: recreational fiction and non
fiction reading, borrowing videos, utilizing materials and programs, and using the
library reference materials.
The survey also showed that the majority of residents, regardless of length of residency
in the community, responded favorably to expansion and most preferred expansion at
the present location. A space needs study last spring by Anders Dahlgren of Library
Planning Associates found that the library (currently at 31,162 square feet and fully
used), should be 38,600 to 54,000 square feet just to meet the current needs to accom
modate a growing print and non print collection as well as to meet the needs for reader
seats, offices, library programs and story time rooms. Unfortunately vertical expansion
in the present location is complicated and difficult as the building’s roof is not stressed
for the load.
During the summer the POL conducted twelve focus groups for staff, village officials,
kids, parents, seniors, non users, younger childless residents and Riverwoods/
Bannockburn residents.
All of the information culled from the survey and focus groups will become part of a
long range plan to be developed by the library board. A long range planning committee
of the board has already devoted many hours to preparing a documented plan/vision for
the library which will best serve its thousands of users. The survey showed that patrons
see the library’s role as a cultural and intellectual community center of the village with
something to offer everyone; this will be taken into consideration in future planning.
Reference copies of the completed space needs and community survey reports are avail
able to the public at the Library’s Reference Desk.
This online subscription database is avail
able to all, free of charge, on computers in
the Deerfield Library’s Reference
Department. It is also accessible to
Deerfield Library cardholders at home or
work via the library’s website, www.deerfieldlibrary.org (Then click Online
Databases, then Infotrac and be ready to
enter your Deerfield library card number
when asked).
A useful tool for investors, business
people, consumers and students, the
Business & Company Resource Center
database includes: magazine, journal, &
newspaper articles (many full-text); indus
try overviews & rankings; and a broad
range of company information including
financials & reports. In addition to the
many periodicals indexed in full- text arti
cles, other database sources include:
American Wholesalers and Distributors
Directory, Brands and Their Companies,
Business Rankings Annual, Encyclopedia
of Associations and more. For additional
information and assistance please contact a
reference librarian.
Library Board
Deerfield resident and former library
board member Ken Abosch has been
appointed a special advisor to the
Board. When on the board he was
closely involved with the Long Range
Planning Process; in this new capac
ity he will work with the Board and
the Long Range Planning Committee
until June, 2004.
Correction! In the last newsletter
announcing our newly elected board
members, Jeff Rivlin’s place of
employment was incorrect. Jell is
presently a Director-Investments at
Oppenheimer and Co. (not Rodman
and Renshaw, where be lormerly

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
Every so often you have a moment, or an
event, or you hear a song, that takes you
back in time and place. Sometimes in ajarring fashion, sometimes just a friendly
glance back. The recent death of Cyrus
Vance had both those effects on me. In
what seems like another life, a long time
ago, I and about a dozen other soldiers had
lunch with Cyrus Vance. It was one of those touchstones in life that
you remember with great clarity. I was a kid sergeant in the 8th
Infantry Division and Cyrus Vance was Under Secretary of Defense.
Memory no longer recalls what I ate for breakfast yesterday, but I
can remember clearly Cyrus Vance standing three feet away and
telling me how important my military job was. I also remember
exactly what we had for lunch, (inch-thick New York cut sirloin
never seen before or after on any of my Army chow lines.) We all
thought Cyrus Vance was impressive that day, he presented himself
well—good speaker, direct gaze, no-nonsense—talk about charisma.
Lost to memory is why he actually came to visit our unit, but he sure
did and his government led us into a dark morass.
Memory is a mystery: so much tiny detail gets stored away, but so
much just gets tossed aside by the memory process, apparently as
unnecessary to our day-to-day existence. But the special events, the
rallying points of our lives, stay with us. Defining moments like the
day we were married, when our children were bom, or when we
graduated from college or fell out of the apple tree and broke our
arms. All of these defining moments get frozen in time for later rec
ollection. I am sure they get planted because they are special—not
done everyday—one special event out of a million and one routine
days.
The Library is approaching just such a defining moment like that and
I would like to talk about it. For the past ten years the Library has
worked on upgrading and renovating every aspect of the building,
collection, programs, and services we offer. This started out with the
replacement of aging boilers but led to serious ADA remodeling, a
new accessible elevator, creating a new Fiction Room, total renova
tion of the main floor and then the Youth Services Department. The
final phase of the project was to move away from the JCPL computer
consortium and install our own computer.
In the meantime we developed and enlarged the book collection to
the point that Deerfield has the highest book-per-capita ratio of
any library on the North Shore. Programs were added and expanded, and services were extended. What guided the project from begin
ning to end was vision and a pretty durable long-range plan. But that
is now all the past. The long range planning and goal-setting that
drove us for ten years has been accomplished; now a future plan lies
ahead.
Marshall Field made a fortune and J.D. Powers has made an industry
out of the old phrase “give the lady what she wants”. The hard part is
knowing what the lady, indeed, wants. “Librarian in the Lobby” is a
program the Board added ten years ago to help us know what it is
our residents want and also how well or how poorly they think we
are doing. This project was original to this Library and has proved of
lasting benefit. Not only has the Board shown accountability and
access, but now we have a good profile of who uses the Library,
what they think about us, and how they perceive the future. We look
to the future as a great opportunity and the planning process as a way
to define what the Library is and how we serve our residents. The
new Long Range Plan will be our guide; we want you all on board.
What does this mean? First, we have no preconceived ideas as to the
destination of this plan.There will be study, focus groups, surveys,
and I am sure midnight oil burned on many long evenings before you
tell us what you want us to be. What we are looking for is mission
and goal—what we will study will be services, hours, programming,
staffing, technology, community partnerships (such as the ones we
have with AARP, the Historical Society and the National Family
Partnership) parking and access. We will also study you, our resi
dents, and we want you to help us. We will do a lot of analysis of our
strengths and weaknesses. Using our crystal ball will be the way we
try to put dimension on the future. We all know how fast technology
has changed us, who can grasp the acceleration of that change? We
will try.
What we seek is a durable and authentic game plan to take us ahead
another ten years and serve us well as the old plan did. Who will
help us? We hope all of you will to one degree or another. For
starters we have engaged the Executive Service Corps to survey staff
benefit and salary packages. What will follow will offer many oppor
tunities for community involvement. We take this process seriously,
we want no false starts, expensive failures or dark morass in our
future operations. We want to serve our residents with exactly the
programs, materials, services, and atmosphere they desire. In this era
of communication, technology and information the possibilities are
limitless.
Now, you ask what in the world does Cyrus Vance have to do with
the Library’s Long Range Plan? To me the Long Range Planning
process is like Vance’s visit. It is going to be a defining moment in
the history of this library and that memory will last, for good or ill,
for a very long time. Unlike my hazy, unclear, memory of Vance’s
motives and intentions the Library Board wants our intentions to be
clear- Yes, like Vance we want to present well, we want to speak
clearly, we
goingt0 have a direct g®2®.no nonsense, and (hope
fully) be charismatic.
Unlike the Army, we want to put steak on your plate every time you
come into the Library. We plan to involve everyone in Deerfield in
our planning process. Importantly, we don’t want anyone feeling—
“why did they do that”? We want this defining moment to be a long
lived one that is remembered like a favorite birthday.

Seventy-Five Candles on a Cake
by Sharon Greenspan Lewin, who received honorable
mention for this original poem in the recent Rosemary
Sazonoff contest. She wrote of the library’s birthday!
For the library—institution of
public learning-seventyfive candles are a tribute,
An achievement.
It incorporates the notion that we are immortal
Thru our words.
When we humans,
In Our Community,• • •
Go to blow out our birthday candles,
If there are seventy-five—we think of all those years.
Life is winding down.
Deerfield Assets for Youth
Program
This spring the library began participating
in a community-wide initiative sponsored
by the National Family Partnership of
Deerfield to emphasize important develop
mental assets for youth. The first three
assets are: a caring school climate, a caring
neighborhood and family support. Please
look at the library’s new display (east
room). Find related videos, pamphlets,
books and booklists and a poster listing
assets and how Deerfield youth scored. The
assets are also on the library’s web site:
www.deerfieldlibrary.org.
For info, contact NFP’s Lynn Tramutola,
847-940-1874.
Library Board Treasurer David
Wolff accepts the certificate from
Representative Karen May.
Why does the library live and age so gracefully?
It is home—to the words of mystical-angel inspired,
Writers, poets, jokers, illustrators—who imbue their creative
Spirit energy into print, and colored pictures, and novels.
To the poor and desolate, the abused and bemused;
It is the ability to take us away.
Historical Society Event
All are invited to attend the Sunday, June 2
Re-dedication of the newly restored Ott
Cabin at the Deerfield Area Historical
Society. In addition to a visit from U.S.
Congressman Mark Kirk, there will be
music and refreshments. The Historic
Village is open for Sunday weekly tours at 2
p.m. through September.
Ah, the smells and touches of the library>.
The feel of a well-worn Huckleberry Finn.
Or my pre-adolescent Nancy Drew Detective
The ever-present joy when I read to my one and only daughter,
"I’ll love you forever—As long as I'm living my baby you'll be. ”
Feel the first experiments at curling up in a library to do research:
First research paper in high school.
Then college, law school,
Studying for the bar exam in the library.

Our great television personality with her "use your life " series,
Marvels at how books saved her-made her,
(a small black girl from
Mississippi,) believe she could be
Anyone she wanted to be!
Now, she has millions reading about all parts of the world
they would never
be exposed to otherwise. Publishers herald her—
she has reinspired book
sales, book clubs, and libraries.
Some people feel the coffee house/bookstores have replaced
the library,
They are mistaken.
No history or the aura of old souls.
It is no coincidence, that, in the movie,
City of Angels, Nicolas Cage, (an angel) hung out at the
Los Angeles Public Library.
Remember the "Twilight Zone" with a main character who
only wanted to
be left alone to read?
There is a nuclear holocaust, everything is desolate:
He wakes up alive in the nibble, with books all around him
At first he is ecstatic.
Then, the horrific irony-hisglasses are smashed. He can’t read.
Our libraries and books need us as much as we need them.
From generation to generation,
In all stages of our growing up,
One could always find a book to elucidate on the subject;
Adolescence, Dating, Getting Married, Parenting,
Speaking to your kids of adolescence,
Taking care ofyour parents,
How to find good doctors, build houses, buy cars,
Find the right spiritual home.
We must remember in this land of the free---How we are free to have libraries.
In Afghanistan, and Iran books are banned.
In India, there are no public libraries.
So many immigrants talk of theirfirst experience of
Coming to America and being able to "borrow"free of charge
A library book.
In America we celebrate milestones.
We honor our birthdays and our anniversaries.
We know that, there but for the grace of God go I.
The cake should be big, big, big,
The banners should be big, big, and big
Shout from the rooftops,
We Deeifieldtonian readers are 75 years old.
We made it. We’re going to live to be 200.
Our books are our gifts from our ancestors, and legacy to our
descendants
Hail! Hail! Long shall we read.
