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.
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
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 This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for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

�This newsletter’s focus is on the non-traditional items
that DPL has to offer. It’s an interesting idea. What is a
“non-traditional” item? According to my dad, a DVD is
something that he considers non-traditional. My dad is a
voracious reader and library user, and he uses his public
library for books.
As I reflect on my almost 20 year career as a librarian,
I remember when computers were considered nontraditional. Computers! Something so ubiquitous today
was quite the big deal when I began my career. The first
public library I worked at after library school had a
shelving range dedicated to regional Illinois phone books.
Speaking from personal experience, those were a hard
thing to shelve! We also had CD-ROMs instead of online
databases and a vertical file. A vertical file was a filing
cabinet that had folders of “current” information, as
well as things like maps. In my tenure at that library,
we got rid of the phone books and the vertical file to
add more, you guessed it, public access computers.
Public libraries have been adept at evolving and
changing to meet the needs of their individual
communities. Deerfield is no exception. In the past
year, our collection of non-traditional items has grown
considerably. As a public library, we are about meeting
our patrons’ information needs in a variety of formats.
We have learned that this can be in the form of a
Roku or a telescope or even a board game.
Check one out today!
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
Take home a telescope (and more)!
Once upon a time... long, long ago (ok, maybe just 20 years ago), most public libraries
had only print items for check-out, plus small collections of audio and video materials.
Fast-forward to 2018, and the DPL collection has creatively expanded to provide an
enhanced experience for our community.
Siona and Eva Rajshekhar (1-r, cover) are two of the Library’s most enthusiastic
users of “non-traditional” library materials. These Wilmot students have found that
their experience with DPL’s Discoveiy Kits stimulated an interest in STEAM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities. They have continued working
in these subject areas both at camp and school. Their interest in architecture and
engineering resulted in the cool wood structure on the cover, built with DPL’s KE\A kit.
Siona and Eva report that the structure represents the future headquarters for their
business, still in the planning stages, for “spy missions or dog walking, or both!”
Come on in and learn more about all this
fun stuff. You’ll find our non-traditional
materials in the Youth or Media
departments.

DEERFIELD
fj| Please register in advance at the Library, by phone at 847-945-3311 or
at deerfieldlibraryorg. Registration opens Wednesday, November 14.
In 1959, residents of Deerfield learned a housing developer planned to sell homes in the village to
black buyers as well as white buyers. Many residents opposed integration and sought to halt the
development. A smaller group, the Deerfield Citizens for Human Rights, formed in support of the
development. In the weeks that followed, Deerfield residents passed a park referendum designed to
condemn the developer’s land. The crisis in Deerfield became a national story, attracting the attention
of Martin Luther King Jr., James Baldwin, and Eleanor Roosevelt. After years of demonstrations and
legal battles, the land became parks that stand today.
Continuing a community tradition, the Library is inviting residents, historians, and experts to offer
new insights into this history. We have updated and digitized our archives, made new acquisitions and
discoveries. The Library is also partnering with Deerfield schools to enhance existing curriculum. We invite
you tojoin us for a series of discussions, lectures, exhibits and other opportunities to reflect on the 60 years
since the fight to integrate Deerfield began. Programs and exhibits run from January 21-May 2,2019.

A recent study of
north suburban
libraries demon
strated that usage I—
is up at nearly all libraries. This
trend is repeated across the
United States. At Deerfield Public
Library, circulation this year is
running over 22% ahead of the
same period last year, and nearly
55% higher than the same period
two years ago! At this rate, we
expect to reach the level of
500,000 items checked out annually
within the next year or so. Many of
you have commented about the
increased level of activity in the
Library, and we are seeing
increased usage via our Web-based
services from home and other
places as well. We hope you feel
the same pride we do in the
popularity of your hometown
library.

Library Remodeling Update
On September 22, 2009, about 30 people attended an information session about the
Library’s recent space needs assessment and facility analysis. The questions posed,
and the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees and architect responses are
available on our Web site. The Board appreciated the many thoughtful interactions
that took place, and invites others to comment as well.
Recently, the Board engaged Ehlers and Associates to help evaluate the Library’s
current financial status, expected cash flow for the future, possible future financial
needs, and possible sources of funds for the proposed project. The Board is taking
the current economic climate and other factors into consideration as part of the
planning process.
One Book, One Zip Code
The 2010 “One Book, One Zip Code” selection for adults
and high school students is Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.
Satrapi’s award-winning memoir of growing up during
Iran’s Islamic Revolution is a graphic novel, laid out and
illustrated like a comic book. Her charming black and
white illustrations help the reader see the countiy’s
dramatic changes. The constant “but, why?” of childhood
is the perfect vehicle for exploring the world-changing
events of 1980s Iran.
This is the third year for the “One Book, One Zip Code” pro
gram. Previously, the communities of Bannockburn,
Deerfield, and Riverwoods came together to discuss
Mountains Beyond Mountains and Listening Is an Act ofLove.
This spring, “One Book, One Zip Code” partners will once again provide readers
with opportunities to come together at locations throughout the community for
discussions, lectures, films, and other interactive events related to the book. Learn
more at www.onebookonezipcode.org.
If your book group is interested in reading Persepolis, a trained book group leader
from the Deerfield Public Library can come to your group for free to lead the discussion.
Call Karen Kleckner at (847) 580-8950 for more details.

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

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

Dear Deerfield Park District Board,
All over our country, we have symbols of our history. Local histories, state histories and national histories, are all
remembered and honored throughout our land. And while many of these histories are important and valuable
to our current societal identity, there are some parts of our history that do not deserve honoring., While they
should be remembered, they should be seen as a dark time in our history, and we should want to reverse the
ramifications. The creation of Mitchell Park is one of those times.
Most people who reside in our town today were not around in 1959 during the controversy of Mitchell Park,
known at the time as the Floral Park Subdivision, but it was a very important time in our history. In early
November of that year, it became known that a company called Progress Development Corporation would be
building houses on the Floral Park Subdivision in Deerfield, along with a neighboring subdivision known as Pear
Tree, now known as Jaycee Park. However, unlike many new houses in the rapidly growing suburb of Deerfield,
Progress Development Corporation intended to sell some of these new homes to African-Americans, and
integrate the town.
This notion of integration was not a new one. Two years after the Little Rock Nine walked into Little Rock Central
High School, schools and towns all over the country were starting to integrate. But when the prospect of
integration came to Deerfield, there was push back. People were outraged with the prospect of AfricanAmerican families moving to Deerfield. They believed that their presence would drop everyone’s property
values, and would stir up trouble in the community as well. After weeks of controversy, the President of the
Deerfield Park District Board, James Mitchell, put the issue to its first formal vote when he proposed that the
land that was about to be developed for the Floral Park and Pear Tree subdivisions be condemned and then
developed as public parks, effectively preventing the integration of the town. Mr. Mitchell had not been
particularly active in the anti-integration efforts previously., But now he was actively using his power to prevent
integration.
The referendum on the land took place on Monday, December 21, 1959, and with a 95% turnout rate, the voters
of Deerfield condemned the land to become parks by more than a two to one margin. One of these parks was
later named after the President of the Park Board, as James C. Mitchell Park.
The naming of this park as Mitchell Park sends a clear message to a wide spread of people about the values that
Deerfield still holds. Minority families who are considering moving to Deerfield may see this symbol of racism
and continue to choose not move into our community, preserving the shocking lack of diversity of Deerfield, in
which 94% of our population is white according to the last census. Our children, who are already negatively
impacted by this lack of diversity in our community, see this symbol of the anti-integration movement and can
infer that it is acceptable to honor the choices that those people made to prevent African-Americans from
moving into their town simply because of the color of their skin. Instead we should be working to rid the earth,
of discrimination forever.
I therefore ask that this Board take the necessary actions to change the name of this park as soon as possible.
We should not remove James C. Mitchell’s name from Mitchell Park with any intent of personal disrespect
towards James Mitchell or his family. Mr. Mitchell’s name is simply a symbol that honors a misguided part of
Deerfield’s history. We should rename the park with a more inclusive name, and honor a set of values that
deserves honoring in this day and age.
Respectfully submitted,
Alec Lopata
