- - - •:
The Library Board is p- .
launching increased . A
efforts to inform and
seek feedback from
Deerfield residents about Library
needs and possibilities. During
Februaiy, the Board formed a citizen
input group of interested community
members. In March, the Board will
hold open house-style public
information sessions for all interested
Deerfield residents. For convenience,
the days and times will vary, but the
information will remain the same. The
intent is to share information about
the Library’s current building,
infrastructure problems, programming
and service limitations, future needs,
and funding alternatives. In exchange,
the Board will seek feedback from
community members to help the
Board consider and assess
alternatives.
In late spring, the Board will use
an independent firm to conduct a
scientifically-representative sample of
randomly chosen residents for a
telephone survey. The results will be
shared with the citizen input group
and others. In June and July, a second
round of public information sessions
will be held for all residents, to share
results of the survey and other inputs,
and to seek additional feedback.
Through these public-engagement
activities, by late summer, the Board
hopes to determine which alternative
may be the most attractive to
community members. The Board will
then decide how to proceed toward
that objective, and how the project
should be funded.
Library Board Hosts Open House Events
to Discuss Facility Options
Interested community members are invited to attend one or more of the Library
open houses scheduled for March. The open house will be an opportunity to learn
more about the facility issues and needs, options being studied, and financing
alternatives for building improvements. A formal presentation will take place at
the beginning of each session; then attendees may stay for the discussion and
tours. The Library Board is encouraging feedback from the community on the
various Library options. Visit the Library Web site for further information and to
register in advance. All sessions are at the Library.

full responsibility for return, damage, fees, or fines for materials loaned, and hold
the Deerfield Public Library harmless from the loan of any materials. More
information and a downloadable copy of the Juvenile Video/DVD and Video Game
Permission Form are available on the Library’s Web site.

mechanized process to repair and clean DVDs, CDs, and
game discs), and general “straightening up” in the Library. If
you have a limited amount of time but want to make a big
difference, contact Jody Wilson atjwilson@deerfieldlibraiy.org for
more information.

Account” feature in the Library’s online catalog. To suspend a hold, check the
“freeze” box and click “update list”.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Congratulations to everyone who
participated in Chill Out & Read, the
second annual Winter Reading Program
for young people. Incentives for the
program were generously provided by The
Chicago Wolves, who also sent one of their
hockey players, Mike Vemace, to visit the
Library to inspire kids to read. Chipotle
Mexican Grill kindly donated gift cards as
an added incentive for kids to achieve their
reading goals. Thank you Chicago Wolves
and Chipotle for supporting the Winter
Reading Program!
The Youth Services department would like
to acknowledge the S.T.A.R. Volunteers
who assisted with the Winter Reading
Program by signing up participants,
distributing prizes, and helping out at
special Youth Services programs. Thank you
for all that you do!
The Youth Services department would like
to thank the Friends of the Library for
generously sponsoring the purchase of an
Early Literacy Station. The station, which
is loaded with more than 45 fun and
educational software titles
for kids, will be an
invaluable resource in
the Youth Services
department. The Early
Literacy Station is
available in the Picture
e/c/PubV'v
Room.
