Getting the Most for
Your Money
"
si. «.»>" ’
Each winter, many of us gaze longingly
at travel brochures full of all-inclusive
resorts and cruises in balmier climates.
I once had the pleasure of traveling with
all my transportation, food, and
activities covered by my prepaid fees.
All I had to do was indulge to my heart’s
content. Recalling that adventure, I
realized that, for our tax payers,
Deerfield Public Library is like an
all-inclusive vacation for the mind,
complete with Master’s-degreed
“personal trainer” Librarians!
Your annual library taxes cover your
year-long enjoyment of books, movies,
and music, of course. And there is wo
extra charge for computer classes,
one-on-one lessons, musical
entertainment, cooking demonstrations,
lectures, use of our meeting spaces and
study rooms, unlimited use of computers
and laptops, Wi-Fi for all your devices,
premium-subscription databases, and so
much more. And that’s just on-site!
What music are you in the mood to listen to today? Whether it is Adele, Pharrell
Williams, Sarah Vaughan or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Deerfield Public Library
cardholders can now download music from thousands of artists directly to their
computers, tablets, and phones.
Our Virtual Libraiy offers you all day, all
night access to many of the features
above, as well as downloadable books,
audiobooks, magazines, music, and an
expanding array of services.
The Library is offering free downloads through Freegal Music,
which provides access to over seven million songs, including
Sony Music Entertainment’s catalog of legendary artists.
Remember: There are no added fees to
ei\joy these. ALL of it is covered by your
Libraiy taxes, which account for 3.8% of
your total real estate tax bill.
With your Library card, you can download three songs a week and stream
three hours of music a day.
Songs can be transferred into existing playlists in iTunes and GooglePlay. No due
dates, no expirations - keep your songsforever■!
Are you getting the most for your money?

The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri
Monday, January 26, 7:30-8:45pm
Set in both India and America, this is a tale of two brothers bound by
tragedy, a fiercely brilliant woman haunted by her past, a country tom by
revolution, and a love that lasts long past death. Born just fifteen months
apart, Subhash and Udayan Mitra are inseparable brothers, but they are
also opposites, with gravely different futures ahead. Suspenseful and
sweeping, The Lowland is an engrossing family saga and a story steeped in
history that spans generations and geographies with seamless authenticity.
Burial Rites by Hanna Kent
Thursday, January 8, 10:30-1 1:30am
Set ainst Iceland's stark
landscape, Hannah Kent
brings to vivid life the story
of Agnes, who, charged with
the brutal murder of her
former master, is sent to
an isolated farm to await
execution. Horrified at the
prospect of housing a
convicted murderer, the family at first
avoids Agnes. Only T ti, a priest Agnes
has mysteriously chosen to be her
spiritual guardian, seeks to understand
her. But as Agnes's death looms, the
farmer's wife and dauqhters learn there
is another side to the sensational story
they've heard.

2014 Tax Forms
@ the Library
Tax forms will be provided at the
Library on a first-come, first-served
basis. Due to the declining popularity
of paper forms, the volume of tax
forms provided to the Library by the
Internal Revenue Service has
decreased, and that pattern is
expected to continue. Please feel free
to call the Library or visit the website
to check on the availability of
specific tax forms. The website will
list all the forms we have received,
and contact information for the IRS
should patrons need documents we
do not carry. The Library will also
print reasonable amounts of tax
forms for free. Large quantities of
forms or instruction packets can be
printed for a fee of 10 cents per page.
Ready to start work on your
family tree? The popular
genealogy resource,
Ancestiy.com, is now available at
the Library. The collection
includes individuals from North
America, United Kingdom,
Europe, Australia, and beyond.
Ancestry delivers billions of
records in census data, vital
records, directories, photos,
and more.
Ancestry.com is only available in the Library If you want to get started from home, we
also have Heritage Quest. Both are available at deerfieldlibrary.org/online-resources.

“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

true love, friendship, and destiny.

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.

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,

surrounding social media and the digital
world their child or teen lives in.

Message from
the Director
Thank you, Deerfield!
The recent approval of
the Library’s request for
funding for the Library
Improvement Plan is a win for everyone
in Deerfield. This gives us the
opportunity to improve our library
building and services, which will benefit
the entire community.
We have begun to get questions about
how soon we will proceed. There are
many steps to be completed and
approvals to be obtained as we move
forward. For example, we need to complete
the architectural designs, and then
share them with Village Commissions as
part of the approval process. Certain
questions or concerns may require some
adjustments to the design or other
changes. When the approval process is
final, we will need to go out to bid for
construction, then evaluate the bids to
assure we are getting the best value and
quality for the project. At best this
process will take several seasons, if all
goes smoothly.
We appreciate the ongoing interest of
our residents, and we will continue to
keep you updated via our Facebook and
Website pages. We received very positive
feedback about our openness during the
referendum, and we plan to continue
sharing our progress with you along the
way. Of course you are also welcome to
attend Library Board meetings, or read
the minutes of these meetings on our
website. Keeping you informed and
involved is important to us, so please
share your questions and comments
along the way.

Library Improvement Plans Move Forward
The November 2 referendum for $11,775 million to fund the Library Improvement
Plan was approved! Over 58.4% of Deerfield voters voted yes, with 41.5% voting against.
The plan calls for improvements to the Library building and services, in order to
meet the needs of Deerfield residents for the next 20 years or more. Space will be
reorganized, remodeled, and expanded. The building layout will become more open
and flexible to allow for changing needs and multi-purpose uses. Adults will have
more quiet reading areas. Additional computers will be added for adults and children,
and a new Technology Lab will offer instruction and workshops. The Youth Services
area will be improved, along with a larger and better designed Youth Program Room.
All restrooms will be ADA compliant. Self-check kiosks and a convenience center will
be added, and the meeting room will be enlarged. The building’s aging infrastructure
will be upgraded or replaced, and the parking lot will be improved.
“The vote is a win for everyone in Deerfield. This gives us the opportunity to improve
our Library building and services, which will benefit the entire community,” said Ken
Abosch, President of the Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees. “The Library
Board is grateful to eveiyone who provided ideas and feedback as we developed the
Library Improvement Plan. We also want to thank Deerfield residents for the time
they took to become informed about the referendum.”
The Board will proceed with the Libraiy Improvement Plan in the most expedient
and efficient manner possible. There are many steps involved, including finalizing
architectural design, reviewing of the plans by Village commissions, completing
construction documents, and bidding the various phases of construction work. It’s not
possible at this time to say exactly when construction will begin.
Please check the Library’s Web site for the latest information about implementation
of the Library Improvement Plan.

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.

David Wolff
Deerfield Public
Library D'listee,
1989 to 2007
Photo by Barbara Struthers
The Library Board and staff were
saddened to learn of the passing of
one of the Library’s friends and
strongest supporters, David Wolff.
David Wolff served as a Deerfield
Public Library Trustee for 18 years.
He held the offices of President,
Secretary and Treasurer.
Current Library Board president
Ken Abosch said, “I think Dave’s
major accomplishment for the
Library was his extreme focus on
the physical side of the facility. He
was instrumental in monitoring
the well-being of the HVAC system,
the roof, elevators, and other
aspects of the building. He always
weighed in on any maintenance
contracts and/or remodeling work
efforts that had to be done, given
his practical knowledge of raw
materials and his knowledge of
contractor practices. As a result,
he also was very actively involved
in the remodeling of the Fiction
room, the Youth Services room,
and the First Floor.”
Dave will certainly be missed. His
cheerful laughter still rings
throughout the Libraiy.
Board Reports on Library Space Needs Study
As Chair of the Long Range Planning Committee, I am pleased to bring you up to date
on the recent architectural study of our current building and future space needs.
In late June, representatives of the architectural firm PSA-Dewberry presented the
Library Board with an assessment of the current building and suggestions for future
improvements. The study included “peer library benchmarking”—comparisons with
similar library facilities—as well as community focus groups, staff input, and a
thorough evaluation of the physical plant and its mechanical, electrical, and other
systems. While our building has been well maintained, it no longer meets code, and
community members continue to comment on its “tired” appearance. Most importantly,
the study revealed significant structural, space, and acoustical problems, as well as
serious parking concerns.
Responding to the Board’s request for need-based, cost-efficient ideas that could help
us improve our library, PSA-Dewberry’s report included recommendations to relocate
the entrance to the northwest corner of the building, expand the east and west portions
of the building by about 5,000 square feet each, reconfigure interior space to increase
flexibility and meet changing patron needs, and address parking concerns. The
architects estimate that such a project could cost $12 to $15 million. While it is
important to note that these recommendations do not constitute an actual plan, but
rather a sort of “you are here” needs assessment, we are excited to share them with
Deerfield residents and eager to solicit feedback on this report. We understand that
public input, as well as ongoing collaboration with the Village, Park District, and other
community leaders, is of critical importance in any improvement process we undertake.
With this in mind, the Board of Trustees will solicit your ideas and opinions at a public
forum to be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday, September 22. Because the library does not have
a meeting room able to accommodate the number of community members who might
wish to attend, the forum will be held at the Patty Turner Senior Center, 375 Elm St.,
Deerfield. Please call Libraiy Director Mary Pergander at (847) 945-3311 for more
information. If you plan to attend this presentation and discussion, please register in
advance at www.deeifieldlibrary.org under “Programs & Classes” or call (847)945-3311.
We hope you will join us!

Have You Tried.. .Remote
Printing?

Library’s print stations from home, or from a
laptop or mobile device you’re using in the /
Library. You can print in black and white or
color for just ten cents per page. Click on
the Remote Printing link on the upper right <C

Message from the Director
“You should offer download
able audiobooks.” “Please
offer color printing and
copying.” “I wish you had
longer check-outs for
vacation periods.”
The fact is we DO offer all of these
services, and many more. Beginning with this
issue, the newsletter asks “Have you Tried?"
and highlights ways to help you get the most
er\joyment and value from your library. Also,
try out the new ROI (return on investment)
calculator link on our Web site to estimate the
value of the library services you use.
Here is something else we want you to know:
PSA-Dewberry architects have reported to the
Board their findings regarding our future space
needs and the suitability of this building for a
possible remodel/expansion. Library Board
Trustee Mary Courtney, the Chairperson for the
Long Range Planning Committee, summarizes
the findings in this issue. Also, come hear a live
presentation about the architect’s report and
give the Board your feedback at a public session
on Tuesday, September 22, at 7 p.m. Please note
the location will be the Patty Ttimer Senior
Center meeting room, in order to
accommodate the expected crowd.
We hope you are ei\joying the many terrific new
features and enhanced searching capabilities of
our new automation system and on-line catalog.
Thank you for your many positive comments
and helpful suggestions. We will be continuing
to make enhancements to better serve you.
Speaking of long-awaited improvements, every
day our staff members receive positive com
ments about how much easier it is to return
materials to the Library now that we have
drive-up book drops. Our Friends of the
Deerfield Library are donating $10,000 this year
to cover the costs, and we say a big Thank You
to them! Read more about the other ways our
Friends support the Library inside.
Finally, watch for the Board members who

from you!

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.

Our Heartland Celebration!
You are Welcome to Attend, 2pm, Sunday, March 21.
The Unveiling of the Lars-Birger Sponberg Painting
A resident of Deerfield for over 50 years, artist Lars-Birger Sponberg has painted a
Midwest landscape that is gracing the wall above our Circulation Desk, the
first thing you see as you enter the library. Sponberg’s career spans nine
decades, and his work has been shown in solo exhibits and group shows in
the Chicago area, Sweden and New York and can be found in numerous
private and corporate collections.
Most recently he has painted “Midwest landscapes” as seen from the road
side. They invite the viewer to enter into the rural landscape on intimate
terms. The library’s painting, McHeniy County, according to Sponberg
“was in my mind for quite some time. Basically it is a real scene (near
Richmond, IL) but I’ve changed and added and done what artists do.”
His intention was to make a good painting, and the scenery is secondary.
Lars-Birger Sponberg works on
our library painting in his
Deerfield home.
Deerfield’s Peter Nye and the Chicago Blue Grass Band
Deerfield’s Peter Nye and the Chicago Blue Grass Band will entertain at the March 21
event with “slamming traditional bluegrass music with a big city wallop”. This internation
ally acclaimed group, a favorite at the Old Town School of Music, will focus on the heart
land. (See Adult Programs)
Refreshments for the afternoon will be donated by Deerfield’s Whole Foods Market.
We love Deerfield and
want the library to
be important to the
community. A focus on
Deerfield is our library’s
overriding spring theme.
As you look through our
newsletter, you will see
that we are highlighting
our community, its
citizens and its talents.

�A Review of the Deerfield Public Library’s
Long Range Planning Process—2001-2004
ver the past year and a half the
library board has been working on
a plan to create a library that
serves patrons’ needs now and in the
future. We would like to share with the
community our work in progress. Our goal
is to plan for the library to continue to be a
source of pride to Deerfield.
The current library was built in 1969 to
house 61,500 items in 32,500 square feet.
Today that same space houses 180,000
volumes. At that time the library employed
14 staff. Today we employ 46 staff mem
bers. We have added music, video and
audio collections. There were no comput
erized catalogs, Internet and no cabling for
a computer network. There was no separate
fiction room. Since 1992, the library has
expanded facilities and services within the
limitations of the present building. We
have reached our space limit and cannot
adapt newer technologies or new services
to our existing structure.
Our vision statement: The Deerfield
Public Library is an educational resource,
cultural center, community gathering place,
and a gateway to technology. The library
will promote lifetime learning. We will
offer all the programs, materials, and ser
vices necessary to participate in the world
of ideas and provide our patrons with the
tools to succeed in the future.
O
Steps the board and staff have
completed:
• Formation of a long-range planning
committee
• Review of previous long term planning
committee reports
• Review of several years of suggestions
from Librarian in the Lobby

strategic facilities plan, assessment of
library service goals, service delivery
options and space needs. He recom

Library Book Drops Update
The book drops on the south side of
the Library parking lot are currently
closed due to safety concerns. Staff
had to stand in traffic to empty these
bins, causing some drivers to swerve
onto the sidewalk. This spring, the
closed book drops will be moved and
reopened. Patrons can continue to
use the two book drops on the north
side of the parking lot. Thank you for
your patience as we work to address
this safety concern.
