Program, Adult programs, a BBC DVD collection, and youth discovery tables. Ms. Reich reported that the group
now has 70 members and is planning to build membership this year.
6.
VILLAGE LIAISON REPORT
Mr. Bill Seiden reviewed the activities of the Village meetings.
7.
LIBRARY DIRECTOR REPORT
The Library Director, Ms. Mary Pergander, provided the following information:
a. Highlights from Director's written report, including Preschool Fair, patron art donation offer, staff member
becoming Certified Genealogist, building issues
Our website had over 700 new visitors compared to the previous period. Tony Keaton has found a reliable,
inexpensive and permanent solution to the multiple issues of the front door locking mechanism. The solution
has been implemented and staff have expressed great appreciation that the issues are finally resolved. Two of
the three needed revisions to the Personnel Handbook have been completed and reported on elsewhere. The
development of proposed salary range changes has begun, using LACONI results. The audit preparations are
underway. We sprang a leak in the storage closet of meeting room C but caught it before damage was done.
Preventative measures were taken. (Mr. Abosch asked if anything can be installed to prevent the freezing of the
pipes. Ms. Pergander will follow-up on this.) One upper window in the Preschool pavilion mysteriously
cracked/shattered. The window was boarded up and a replacement has been ordered. Total meeting room set
ups for the month were 68. Additional assistance of about 6 hours per week is being explored. Six new groups
used the Library during the month, with 51 reservations total. The Center for Enriched Living is providing
volunteers twice a week to help dust the bookshelves. This is a vital service for us, and it is making a very
positive difference in our level of cleanliness, as well as providing valuable volunteer experience for the group.
Kary Henry coordinated our first Preschool Fair, to high acclaim by both the preschools and attendees. The
glowing reviews and a project summary were provided to the Board. Sayaka Suzuki and Judy Hoffman
represented the Library at the Lake Forest College job fair. We executed a Chamber e-blast for the small
business program, with registrations skyrocketing immediately afterward. We have contracted with a presenter
form Zingerman's to provide a half-day of customer service training for staff in late April. Support Services has
begun training staff members on serials functions, for cross-capabilities. The circulation in January was our
highest January ever recorded since we began in 2007. Similarly, there were 3,500 ebook downloads in the
month, compared to 2000 for the same month one year ago. Adult Services Librarian Anne Jamieson will be
pursuing Genealogy certification.
b.
Winter Wish List for Friends meeting - Update
A list of the Wish List items approved by the Friends was provided to the Board.
c.
Illinois Per Capita requirements for 2016-17
Ms. Pergander reviewed the 2015 Per Capita Grant requirements, with special focus on the Board's
responsibilities for the EDGE assessment discussions, since she will likely be gone before those take place.
Head of IT Tom Owen is completing the assessment, and can provide new leadership with the results, for

Regular Meeting Minutes

board discussion. This must be completed prior to September at the latest, so that the Grant application
reflects the completion of the requirement. Another requirement is the evaluation and fostering of
resource sharing options. Ms. Pergander recommends that the Board request that the management team
develop discussion points on this topic for the Board to evaluate and discuss.
Mr. Rivlin asked for clarification, recalling that last year he had reviewed the EDGE assessment materials for
the Board. Ms. Pergander clarified that last year we learned about assessment, now we must do it.
d. Progress report on salary schedule revisions based on LACONI 2014 survey
Ms. Pergander will bring proposed new schedules to the Board at the March meeting as planned, and will
discuss them first with Mr. Abosch.
e. Progress report on Policy review 2015 Ms. Pergander described the process to review all policies with the Board and update the complete manual
prior to her departure in May.
f. Plans regarding art purchases made possible by Friends' donation Since art-knowledgeable board members had given the green light previously, Ms. Pergander is proceeding
with a partial purchase of previously-selected art, using the money donated by the Friends.
g. Confirmation of date for honoring outgoing Board members Outgoing Board members will be honored at the April Board meeting.
h. Invitation to apply for Library Journal New Landmark Libraries Award
Upon further consideration, the Board and Ms. Pergander agreed that this award process is not feasible at
this time.
Mr. Rivlin asked about Library Journal Star Status. Ms. Pergander summarized that these are the libraries worthy
of exceptional recognition on a national level, based on four criteria used nationwide. She especially
appreciates advances such as increasing patron usage of computer services, which has moved us up in the
standings quite a bit compared to last year. There is a two to three year lag built into our reporting.
Mr. Rivlin suggested that Library might find ways to promote downloads with 4th of July Parade celebration and
library promotion.
Mr. Simon asked Ms. Pergander to confirm her final date, which will be Friday, May 29th.
8.
OLD BUSINESS
REVISED Prototype GIVE button for donations, and related donation
Ms. Pergander reviewed the changes made as requested at the last board meeting for the GIVE button,
which now says "GIVING" and is relocated in the DRAFT to the upper right of the Homepage. No content has
yet been developed, pending further approvals.
Report by Marla Dembitz on concerns expressed by Friends at recent meeting
i.
Ms. Dembitz reviewed a discussion held at the Friends' meeting regarding the Library's intention to
do passive fund raising. She explained that the Friends are concerned about causing confusion for
patrons, competition between the Library and the Friends group, tax accountability, and whether
such fund raising by the Library is too close to the recent tax referendum. She referenced the
Highland Park Library website use of a Library-based wish list as an example of the Friends'
concerns. Ms. Reich asked about the joint fund raising committee, where the Library and the
Friends could collaborate. She said the Friends may now be willing to allow usage of or support
grant opportunities which require the need of a 501(c) 3 status, which the Friends obtained several
years ago. Ms. Pergander expressed delight that the Friends may now be able to support the
Library's grant requests in this manner.
Page 3 of 6
�Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
Regular Meeting Minutes
February 18, 2015
The board members discussed these points, explained that they feel the Board has a responsibility
to provide an avenue for different types of donations, such as bequests, and emphasized that no
competition is intended.
Ms. Pergander clarified that the website GIVING button would not link to specific wish list requests,
as it does for the Highland Park Library, but would lead to many avenues of engagement, including
giving to the Friends, honoring others with donations for books, making bequests, etc.
Ms. Reich state that she appreciated the clarification and that there had been a misunderstanding of
the Library's intentions.
ii.
Artwork donation
The Board members discussed the artwork recently offered to the Library by a private donor. The
discussion included size and whether the piece could be interpreted as having a religious message in
a public space. Members debated whether the artistic style fit the Library's image. After some
discussion, members advised the Director to decline the offered donation of artwork.
b.
Instructions to staff to reinstitute Library Trustee fee waiving and policy change
Ms. Pergander announced that the process has been reinstituted.
c.
Update - Personnel Handbook revision
Ms. Pergander reviewed the revisions, which included new wording about providing references, and
guidance regarding distracted driving. These are two of the three items the board asked to see revised.
MOTION: Mr. Michael Goldberg made a motion to approve the revisions, seconded by Ms. Dembitz.
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Marla Bark Dembitz, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman,
and Ron Simon. The motion was approved.
d.
Next steps for recruiting new Library Director: Recommendation regarding recruiter and approval of
contract amount
Mr. Abosch reviewed the activities of the Search Committee which had recommended hiring Ms. Lynn as the
recruiter, for a contract fee of $14,000 plus expenses. He reported that this recommendation was approved
in a Special Board Meeting resolution. The Search Committee requested the authority to define the criteria
to be used in the selection process, authorize the placement of ads, and the screening of candidates. He
described the planned process going forward, which would end in a final six reviewed by the committee and
two or three finalists coming before the full board. Mr. Goldberg suggested that the whole board look at
the final six candidates. Mr. Abosch said he was fine with that change of plan, or any Board member can
attend and participate in the Search Committee activities. The final decision can be made when the process
gets closer to that point. Mr. Schriftman noted that after the election there may be a shift of perspective
among board members.
e.
Information about League of Women Voters candidate event March 15
Ms. Pergander announced that Sunday, March 15th, the League will provide an opportunity for contested
non-write-in seats to engage in a public question answering session, for both the Library and the Village
Trustee candidates. She noted that the League has said write-in candidates will not be included in the
session, although they may be introduced.
f.
Follow-up regarding automatic interior doors, survey results, quotes, and possible approval
Ms. Pergander reported her findings regarding public buildings with automatic doors. The board discussed
the cost and how many doors might need the assistance of automation. Mr. Goldberg suggested the doors
Page 4 of 6
�Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
Regular Meeting Minutes

should be retrofitted. Mr. Abosch suggested that the Library should be professionally reviewed for this and
other ADA issues. Mr. Simon suggested that the tension on the doors might be changed. Ms. Pergander
said she would ask Dewberry about finding an ADA certified professional and determine what it costs to hire
the expert and will also call five local libraries to discover if they use any assisted-open or automatic doors
for internal spaces.
9.
g.
Update - Replacement of main electrical switch and possible insurance claim
Ms. Pergander reported that the case is being reviewed by our insurance carrier as a possible covered claim.
With seven weeks of lead time for parts, Ms. Pergander wants to move forward as soon as possible so that
the two closure dates will be in the next newsletter and the project will be completed prior to her leaving
May 29.
h.
Update - Youth Services tablets for children
As requested by the Board two months ago, Ms. Pergander provided the requested 60 day update, and
reviewed the process for checking the Nabi and iPad tablets in and out. She said that the Head of Youth
doesn't recommend any changes because parents sign them out and these tablets are not appealing to
older kids who want to also use the Internet. The Internet is not available on these tablets; they are
restricted to child-oriented materials.
NEW BUSINESS
a. Proposed dates for Trustees at Farmers Market
Ms. Pergander said that two dates are available in August: August 1 and 8. She also asked about the Board's
preference regarding the second set of choices: September or October. Mr. Schriftman said he would like to
participate and recommended September. All agreed.
b.
Proposal to combine lower level service desks and create seating area using existing furnishings
Ms. Pergander reviewed the suggested plan, which includes moving computer lines, phone lines, and she
also reviewed the benefits to patrons, including unified service location and an additional seating are to be
created where the second desk used to stand. The Board affirmed its approval of the project.
MOTION: Mr. Michael Goldberg made a motion to approve the plan to combine the lower level service desks
and provide an additional seating area, seconded by Mr. Seth Schriftman.
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Marla Bark Dembitz, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman,
and Ron Simon. The motion was approved.
c.
Recommendation to purchase disc cleaner
Mr. Simon noted that the purchase is included in the current budget.
MOTION: Mr. Michael Goldberg made a motion to approve purchase of the proposed disc cleaner (not to
exceed $15,000), seconded by Mr. Seth Schriftman.
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Marla Bark Dembitz, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman,
and Ron Simon. The motion was approved.

Director

The Deerfield Library Board
has formed a search
committee to identify a new
director for the Deerfield
Public Library. The committee
is inviting both applications
and nominations for the
position, which requires a
master’s degree in library
science from an ALA-accredited
institution, successful experi
ence in library administration,
excellent interpersonal skills,
personal integrity and a
commitment to public service.
To receive full consideration,
nominations and applications,
with salary history, should be
received no later than April 15
and should be sent to Ken
Abosch, Chair, Search
Committee, Deerfield Public
Library, 920 Waukegan,
Deerfield, IL 60015 or
kabosch@deerfieldlibrary.org
Dedicated to the fullest meeting
of the needs of his community
of library users and fellow
professionals, Jack Hicks is one
of those few masters...visionary,
imaginative, innovative,
effective- Webster’s infinite
list of appropriate adjectives is
insufficient to describe this true
master among us.
Administrative Librarian
to Retire in June
Jack Hicks, Deerfield resident and professional librarian at the
Deerfield Library for 34 years, will retire this June. Prior to his
appointment to Library Director 18 years ago, he was head of
the Reference Department.
It has been a long road of dedicated professional service for
Hicks, whose top priority all these years has been to serve the
Deerfield community by overseeing a library of which Deerfield
residents could be proud. In 1972 the library had a collection of
30,000 books. Today there are 185,000 volumes and a world of new formats and information
technology. Over the years, Hicks remodeled, renovated and managed to make best use of avail
able space so that patrons would enjoy a serviceable and attractive environment. Our remodeled
(in 1995) separate Fiction room is a testament to Hicks’s art and his devotion to books.
With honesty, sensitivity, integrity and creativity, Hicks has brought the library to the national
spotlight as one of the finest and most innovative libraries in the country. As a reference librari
an he left no stone unturned in researching for patrons. Serving the community, he opened the
library for numerous community events, not the least of which was serving 82 gallons of free
lemonade in the library every year for Family Days. In addition to repairing the building and the
computers, constructing a puppet theater and writing its scripts, Hicks provided the first online
information retrieval system in the north suburban area and instructed other communities in its
use. He instituted “librarian in the lobby” one day each month, listened to the community’s
wants and needs and responded to them. He had a vision for a 21st century library for Deerfield,
but unfortunately that failed in the recent referendum. He has always put fiscal responsibility
first, giving taxpayers the most for their tax dollar. Deerfield Library has more books per capita
than any other north suburban library, while remaining the lowest taxing body in the Village.
He is greatly admired by professional colleagues nationwide, board and staff. No question has
been too small, no hours too long, no challenge too tough. Robert R. McClarren, a Deerfield
resident and Director Emeritus of the North Suburban Library System, said, “Dedicated to the
fullest meeting of the needs of his community of library users and fellow professionals, Jack
Hicks is one of those few masters...visionary, imaginative, innovative, effective-Webster’s
infinite list of appropriate adjectives is insufficient to describe this true master among us.”
