Summer 1991
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
^.ifruvitcui
*De4j6.
Graham Greene died April 3,1991, but as
"LeMonde" said the next day, "Graham
Greene will never die... Greene has always
been a man at the dizzying brink of things
where faith wavers, spies become double
agents, love turns to sadism, and anything
can happen."
No author I can think of wrote encom
passing narrative characterizations like
Greene. His novels were defined by charac
ters and values (or lack of values) rather than
plot. Greene was a master at describing time
and place and drawing the reader straight into
the dark and perverse side of a world where
good and evil are exposed in every character.
No author identified so clearly the underclass
the world - what he termed "the torturable
'ass." No author understood the gulf be
tween rich and poor, powerful and powerless
Greene did. To me his themes were broad and
universal - not confined to, yet focused on,
healing, reconciliation and forgiveness.
Greene penned these ideas in an outline of
reverses: a world of betrayal, powerlessness,
pain, and evil with the only redeeming
dimension in life being the spiritual one. In
The Power and the Glory he presents us with
a novel of persecution and despair, yet it is a
book that completely defines the spiritual
side of man’s nature - regardless of religious
tradition.
Many books hold special moments for us,
and we revisit them to regain those pleasures,
or touch those moments. All readers have
their favorite books - my favorites are almost
all Graham Greene. The books I am recom
mending are: Brighton Rock, The
Comedians, The Heart of the Matter, The
Honorary Consul, Our Man in Havana, The
Power and the Glory, and The Quiet
American. There are so many others I suggest
you browse the shelves and read any and all
of them. I will discuss The Power and the
ory in the library’s fall book discussion.

�Non Resident Card
Fees Increase
Residents of incorporated Deerfield are
entitled to free library cards. Non-residents
who want a Deerfield card may purchase a
^m11 privileges non-resident library card for
^el50. This fee is set by the State and determined by a special formula related to
residents’ lax fees. The non-resident card fee
was formerly $125.00.
The boundaries of service for Deerfield
Library are the same as those of the village
limits - NOT related to U.S. Post office ZIP
codes or West Deerfield Township limits.
With a Deerfield card you can borrow
from any of North Suburban Libraries’
public libraries. (This may not include
videos).
F. Y.l.
Fines... As of May 1, overdue fines
were raised from five to ten cents
per day. A significant line item in
the budget, fines have not been al
tered in 15 years. The increase also
brings fines in line with what neigh
boring libraries charge. Video
overdue fines remain $2.00 a day.
Since others may be waiting for the
materials you have, we appreciate
prompt returns. Reminder: If you
lose or damage library books, there
is a non refundable cost of the item
plus a processing fee of $5.00. Un
returned video: replacement cost,
plus $20 processing fee.
A new brochure, "A Guide to
Library Services" is now at the Cir
culation Desk. This brochure was
made possible by a donation from
the Friends of the Deerfield
Library.
Donations welcome... The Refer
ence Department would appreciate
donations of Consumer Reports
magazines from the last five years.
Due to heavy use, the library’s
copies deteriorate quickly.
With the cost of books spiraling,
(average costs: nonfiction, $40 and
fiction, $25) the library appreciates
book donations, including paper
backs, in good condition. The
Townley Club of Deerfield
generously donated $250 to
replenish the library’s classics. We
also thank those who have donated
books, magazines and annual
reports.
Exhibits at the entrance to the
library are changed monthly. We
welcome your collections of inter
est, with artifacts, if they relate to
library books.________________

BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
inter 1990
Vol 6, No. 1
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfiled. IL 60015
the
'& 72eA&
Two things happened recently that have
made me unusually sensitive to people’s
reading levels and skills-and their ge neral
lack of knowledge about our society.
The first was the PBS Civil War
television series-which was engrossing and
disappointing to me. As a lifelong Civil'War
junkie I was overjoyed by a vastly entertain
ing program. But it did not clarify, give
sequence or add coherence to the Civil
War. Events that happened simultaneous
ly were treated as if they happened two
years apart. Many viewers do not know
which side William T. Sherman was on, or
that Grant captured Vicksburg the same
day as Gettysburg-yet paroled his 10,000
prisoners back into the Confederacy.
What we need in this electronic age is in
formation clarification-not mystification.
The other eye opener was one of the
most effective and intelligent people I have
ever known-a naturalized U.S. citizen^feisked me to compile a list of books that
^^vould fill in what he perceives as gaps in his
overall knowledge of our country, and raise
his consciousness about items of cultural
literacy. The idea of a general paucity of
cultural knowledge has been a hotly
debated topic among social scientists for
several years.
I understand that a specialized, techni
cal education can definitely lead to
deficiencies in general knowledge, and that
being raised in a very different culture may
skew your interpretations of American
traditions. As a Librarian, I see technical
education and cultural diversity as two of
the key elements that have made America
a great society.
A lack of reading is a major problem
that confronts us today. Television, videos,
ten second sound bites and fifteen minutes
of celebrity, do not impart the same cul
tural identity and awareness-of who we are
and how we got that way-as effectively as
reading. Television is the primary way most
people get the news and their other information.
The book I am recommending this
month is Who Reads Literature? by
Nicholas Zill and Marianne Winglee. This
provoking analysis makes it clear that there
^^are very large numbers of citizens who canMkot read, and even larger numbers of those
who can but will not read. This malaise is
serious and will negatively affect our fu
ture.
Jack Alan Hicks
Administrative Librarian
Shelby Yastrow - Deerfield’s Own Author
Start the new year right by welcoming
Deerfield's own-corporate lawyer Shelby
Yastrow and best selling author of Undue
Influence on Tuesday evening, January 8 at
7:30 p.m. Yastrow, whose new "Lite Lawyer
novel is one of the snappiest courtroom
capers yet" (Kirkus Reviews), was the sub
ject of a front page/fealure story in North
Shore magazine.
His novel has hit the Chicago best seller
list and is being considered for a movie. A
gifted storyteller, he will share with us why
he wrote this "yarn spinning" novel, how he
got it published and what he tried to ac
complish. Our witty and personable
neighbor will be feted at an autograph
reception following his talk. Make reserva
tions now!
Of Importance to You
Deerfield Library has received a per
capita grant of $17,432.00 from the Il
linois State Library. Slate regulations
require that this money be dedicated
to projects that expand or enhance our
services. The money will be used to
sponsor adult programs, fund the
newsletter and purchase foreign lan
guage books.
If you do not have your library card with
you to check out library materials, you
must have some form of identification.
All new adult fiction of less than 400 pages
now circulates for one week. A faster
turnaround time should satisfy
patrons’ desire to obtain new books. If
there is no one waiting to read the book
and the book is not overdue, it may be
renewed for seven days. Renewals may
be in person or by telephone. After six
months, new adult fiction is loaned for
three weeks.
Just like the video store: please remember
to rewind your library videotapes
before returning them. Do not place
videos in the book drop; bring them in.
Deerfield cardholders, over 18 years of
age, may borrow up to 4 videos for
three days, at a cost of $1 per video;
overdue videos are $2 a day.
Deerfield Author Shelby Yastrow
DEERFIELD LIBRARY
SALUTES THE PAST
A series of exhibits saluting the history
of Deerfield and the State of Illinois are
featured at the library during the winter
months. The Deerfield Historical Society
has donated two exhibits: 1) a focus on the
history of our town (Nov.-Dee.) and 2)
Deerfield area architecture (Jan.).
"Documenting 250 Years of Illinois His
tory", an Illinois State Archives exhibit of
documents, letters, maps, broadsides and
photographs will grace the library in early
January.
Sign of the Times
A new sign at the entrance to the library
now makes the library more visible from
Waukegan Road. The sign was a gift from
an anonymous donor.

A FEW HINTS ON USE OF
THE LIBRARY’S ONLINE
CATALOG
The library’s or.iine public catalog, rep
resents holdings of books, sound
recordings, and videos, not magazines or
newspapers. The online catalog contains
the collections of Skokie, Morton Grove,
and Waukegan Libraries as well as Deer
field.
You can limit your search to Deerfield
by typing in LIB either as a separate com
mand or as part of another command: for
example, LIB/SUB/COOKERY. The
command ALL will resume the search of
all four libraries’ collections.
Consult the red "quick subject guide to
shelf location" at each terminal. This book
helps you to find the right words to type into
the computer for a subject search.
Example: You won’t find a list of books
on GREEK MYTHOLOGY by searching
under that heading in the subject files of the
computer. But, if you look under "GREEK
MYTHOLOGY" in the red subject book
near the terminal, the book will tell you to
type in "MYTHOLOGY, GREEK" in
stead.
If you just want to browse the library in
a certain nonfiction area, the red book also
leads you to call numbers associated with
specific subject headings.
If you have trouble searching the com
puter, ask the Reference Librarian for
help!

Deerfield, IL 60015
Fall 1990
Vol 5, No. 4
/tc/1044- tfie
—The other side of Lake Wobegon—
A Death in White Bear Lake is a book
about an “All American City.” This^ is a
hard story to discuss because it deals with
a small boy savagely beaten to death by ftis
mother — a child abuser. But it is an im
portant book on several levels and for ver^
serious reasons.
The homicide took place in 1965 but
because people closed their hearts and
minds to the evil around them, the legal
system sputtered and faltered and the case
was filed away for twenty-two years. In
1987, through an unlikely series of events,
a group of everyday people did some very
extraordinary things to see that this murder
would not go unpunished.
A courageous medical examiner re
opened the files, a determined police force
^J3uilt a strong charge, and a dedicated legal
^A'stem pressed the trial to a just conclu^^ion. These brave and outraged people
remembered an innocent little boy and
demanded justice, unlike so many who did
not speak in 1965, or denied, or lied, or
intimated, or covered up.
The real question raised by this book is:
what would you or I have done? Would we
look away, harden our hearts, refuse to get
involved to protect ourselves? After twentytwo years would we still turn away? Would
we remember? Would we have the courage
to stand against evil? If not, how would we
choose to be remembered? The message is
clear — if this could happen to an “All
American City” it can happen anywhere.
If they could do it, we could do it. Inertia
and failure to act are the real unknowns;
how easy it is to be brave if you are never
put to the test.
The author, Barry Siegel, merits great
praise for outstanding reporting. This
haunting book has an amazing texture,
depth, and feel for time and place. John
Donne wrote that... “no man is an island,”
a phrase that has a special meaning to me
because the crib side doctor who saw a
^Meath by child abuse and turned aside was
community stalwart in White Bear Lake
— my home town — and the attending
physician at my father’s death.

Changes to Serve You Better, Faster • • •
The popular new books are wanted by so
many; this often means long waits for the
best sellers. We are trying to deal with this
problem by shortening loan periods for new
fiction books and by ordering more copies
faster.
Beginning Sept. 4, all new fiction books
will have one week loan periods until they
are six months old. This should provide a
faster turnaround time for the next person.
Books can be renewed by phone or in
person if they are not overdue and there
is no waiting list.
While we cannot quickly satisfy 60 re
quests for Scott Turow’s “Burden of
Proof,” we are anticipating demand for
popular authors by using a new Fast Track
ordering system. It promises speedy
delivery of multiple copies of projected best
sellers. Some of these are Belva Plain’s
“Harvest”, Dick Francis’s “Long Shot”
and Sidney Sheldon’s “Memories of
Midnight”.
All new books will stay on the NEW
BOOK SHELVES for one year — nonfic-
tion by the fireplace, fiction on the new
stacks in the Fiction/Quiet Room.
To keep the collection current, librarians
are busy with a major weeding
(housecleaning) project. Outdated and
damaged books are removed from the col
lection, and some are placed on the
ongoing “for sale” carts.
Large Print Books, Adult Basic Readers,
Short Story Collections, and Circulating
Paperbacks are now next to the new fiction.
For reading suggestions, check our new
guides to good reading. These include lists
of new Deerfield books; “Bestsellers”
which include author close ups, plot sum
maries, what the critics say, and related
must reads; Best books of ’88 & ’89, and
lists of Techno Thrillers, Traditional
Romances, Faraway Places, Pigskin Peo
ple, Spies, etc. On display are also
“Modern Fantasy: 100 Best Novels,” a
book listing the best crime and mystery
books, “Sequels: A Guide to Reading in
Series”, American Best Sellers, and other
books offering reading suggestions.
The five story Illinois State Library
building was dedicated on June 20. It faces
and is designed to be compatible with the
architecture of the 102 year old State
Capitol building. The library houses the
state’s 4.7 million volumes, and state and
federal documents. In the planning stages
for 20 years, the project became a reality
when it received $36 million as part of the
“Building Illinois” program. The library’s
resources may be borrowed by using a
library card issued by any Illinois public
library.
At the dedication of the State Library building in
Springfield, Deerfield Librarians Baiba
Rosenkranz, far left, and Sally Brickman, flank
Secretary of State/State Librarian/Gubernatorial
candidate, Jim Edgar, with Elliott Kanner, far right
(Deerfield resident & North Suburban Library
System administrator).
Please let us know • • •
We are trying to determine the need for
library outreach service in Deerfield. If
there are people who would like to have
library service but are unable or have dif
ficulty getting to the library we would like
to know. Difficulty reading? Ask about our
specialized talking books from the National
Library Service for Blind/Physically
Handicapped.

Programs are free, but reservations are
requested.
North Shore Author Eleanore Devine
Tuesday, Sept. 11, 7:30 p.m.
Reviewers heralded her “quietly shock
ing” short stories from “You’re Standing
in My Light” as ‘’remarkable because they
are tart, taut, touching, economical, ellip
tical, sharp, sensuous and sexy”. Devine
lays claim to a territory of human ex
perience few writers have explored with
such honesty, perceptiveness and vigor;
that of the aging older woman, adamant
that her life make sense, determined that
certain human values be expressed.

Codependency: Suffering Without
Meaning
Tuesday, Oct. 2, 7:30 p.m.
While “codependency” is a new “in”
word, it does not subtract from the validi
ty that it is a real problem resulting in selfdefeating behaviors, according to Kathleen
Fitzgerald, Ph.D., published author on the
subject of addiction. Fitzgerald, president
of Lake Forest’s Institute for Recovery, will
discuss what codependency is, how
childhood wounds surface in adult years,
and actions that can be taken to emerge
from this condition.
Children and Families in the 90’s
Tuesday, Oct. 9, 7:30p.m.
Co-sponsored with the League of
Women Voters, and AAUW, a panel discus
sion will provide local, national and state
perspectives: Represented are Voices for Il
linois Children, Family Network of
Highland Park, and Lake County ABC
Council which plans and coordinates men
tal health, substance abuse, and
developmental disability services.
Register to Vote
The League of Women Voters offers
Voter Registration at the library, Saturdays,
Sept. 8, 15, 22 & 29. This will be the last

tion in Oct. Voters are reminded that they
