tigate identification and acqui
sition of property in the north

goals and core values.

library systems and product
needs.
Summer, 2002

Plan Chair Don Van Arsdale
outlines plan for 1,000 respondent survey, focus groups.
Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks and Architect Frank Gehry
talk about the future of the Dee}field Library at
Gehry's California headquarters.
Summer, 2003
Public Opinion Laboratory of
Northern Illinois performs
survey which indicates that
residents want
1. the Library to stay in present
quadrant;
2. convenience: drive-up
access, lower shelves, wider
aisles;
3. an enlarged and diversified
Youth Services Department;
and
4. increased access to technology
and the Internet.
Winter, 2004
Library Planning Consultant
Anders Dahlgren completes two
studies, which determine
1. we need a building 50%
larger than our current one
just to efficiently house
current holdings and
services. (Current library,
built in 1969, housed 61,500
items; same space now hous
es 180,000 items.);
2. future space needs will
require an 86,000-squarefoot building.
Fall, 2003
Public Opinion Laboratory
conducts 12 focus groups to
gauge and confirm resident
needs.
Winter, 2004
Library newsletter informs the
community of the planning
process and the Library’s
vision.
May, 2004
Structural analysis of current
building and feasibility study
determine that enlarging present
building is almost impossible,
very costly and would not solve
present space problems.
July, 2004
Administrative Librarian Jack
Hicks informs the board that
the Library’s present infrastruc
ture will soon require $2
million of repair.
August, 2004
Executive Service Corps coor
dinates all findings of the past
few years into a complete
report: The Library’s Strategic
Long Range Plan.
FUTURE PLANS:
Engage a major architect,
hire a library consultant to
work with the architect,
conduct a referendum. The
community will be included
and informed of all processes
to come.

Navy Flier Crashed
at Library Site 60
Years Ago
On Memorial Day, May 31 at 10:30
a.m., the Library and the Deerfield
Historical Society will remember
Navy Ensign Milton C. Pickens with
the unveiling of a plaque in his honor
outside at the west end of the
Library, as part of the Deerfield
Memorial Day ceremonies.
Ensign Pickens had been training as
an aircraft carrier pilot at Naval Air
Station in Glenview where, sadly, a
number of pilots were killed during
their training. The library has always
known there had been a plane crash
on its property. Recently, through
diligent research by librarian Cindy
Wargo, we have learned that it was a
U.S. Navy F4F Wildcat whose pilot,
Ensign Milton C. Pickens of
Houston, Texas crashed and perished.
Ensign Pickens, 20, won his Navy
wings in December, 1943 and
married Dorothy Prindle of Houston
the same day. Assigned to the Naval
Air Station in Glenview, he crashed
on May 26,1944. He was buried in
Houston. At the time of his death, his
stepfather and two brothers were also
in military service.

Across the Librarian’s Desk
The staff and Board are coming to the conclusion of the
long range planning process. Public hearings for input by
our residents will be held this summer.
Over the past two years, a 1000-respondent survey has
been taken, twelve focus groups were conducted,
technology has been reviewed, demographics have been
studied, service levels have been assessed, and
contemporary Illinois libraries have been visited. The Board and staff have prepared
preliminary reports dealing with these issues. Space and building needs have been
studied by Anders Dahlgren, nationally recognized library consultant, who produced
two studies. One is an assessment of the space needs for the current operation which
identified a current need for 54,000 square feet. The second study, a long range
space plan, detailed the need for a building of 70,000-80,000 square feet. The staff
reports, survey, and Dahlgren reports are available at the Reference Desk for review.
The building is currently being studied by the architectural firm of Javore and
Associates to determine what possibilities exist for the present structure and site. The
final two pieces of our planning process will be a series of public hearings for direct
input from our residents and the compilation of the strategic plan itself.
The Library is faced with limited options. The structure’s roof and structural
columns are not stressed to take the floor loading needed for book stacks, making it
expensive and difficult, if not impossible, to simply go up a floor or two. If the
Library expands horizontally, we will lose our parking and access. What the resident
survey revealed was that our residents want the following: the Library should stay in
or near the current location; a drive-through is an urgent need; bigger and better
meeting rooms are desired; quiet study space is needed; a separate area for teenagers
is called for; DVDs, video and audio products are in great demand; longer hours are
desired; parking, ingress and egress are issues with our users; and there is an
insatiable demand for more Internet and computer services.

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.
Eighth Annual Rosemary Sazonoff
Creative Writing Contest
I Love Deerfield! • March 8-April 3

At this time we will video, with writer’s permission, the writer’s memories for posterity.

�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
• Seminar to identify core values
• Salary Survey
• Demographic Study
• Commissioned and reviewed Space
Utilization survey by nationally
recognized library consultant Anders
Dahlgren
• Prepared technology assessment and
plan
• Public Opinion Laboratory of Northern
Illinois University designed and carried
out phone survey of over 1000 area res
idents and conducted twelve focus
groups
• Conducted a needs assessment based on
all of the above
• Anders Dahlgren prepared a detailed
strategic facilities plan, assessment of
library service goals, service delivery
options and space needs. He recom
mended the need for an 80,979 squarefoot facility with an optimum of 86,583
square feet.

Babe Ruth. Ruth
was barnstorming
across the country
with cronies and stopped, for reasons
unknown, in my Uncle’s hometown
of Rockwell City, Iowa. He wanted to
play golf and asked for the top golfer
in town as a partner. That was my
Uncle, then a teenager, Alan Voss.
Aside from family photos and
memories and faded “Rockwell City
Advocate” newspaper clippings, that
minor piece of Rockwell City history
is lost forever in the vast series of

Alan won the golf match. My Mother

Such oral history and family

Long Range Plan Continues to Develop
By Sunday Mueller, Board President
Over the last year the Library Board of Trustees has been hard at work in developing a
long range plan for the Deerfield Library. When it is finalized, the board will release
its written plan to stand as a blueprint for the future. Key components of the plan will
include both the library’s operations and facilities.
Public Opinion Laboratories (POL) of Northern Illinois University conducted a
telephone survey this past spring, completing 1,000 interviews with Deerfield,
Bannockburn and Riverwoods residents. Many of the respondents especially valued the
library’s accessible location and Children’s Department. The Adult Fiction Room
received high marks and there was a stated desire to enhance the audiovisual and non
fiction holdings. Other respondents indicated use of multiple libraries, and the data was
helpful in providing insights about the reasons for that use.
Hoping to gather in depth opinions about the library, the Board commissioned
POL to conduct focus groups. Twelve focus groups were held over the summer with
ten different subgroups of residents. Grouping the participants allowed the moderator
to explore issues of special interest to that particular group. As one might expect, the
opinions from these groups were varied but common themes were identified.
Since the library’s current physical space is fully utilized, we hired Anders
Dahlgren of Library Planning Associates, Inc. to assess the current space needs of the
library. Using more conventional space allocations (wider aisles, lower shelving) as
well as the proper amount of seating space, it would take a building about 50% larger
just to house our current holdings and services. Dahlgren is now working on an
estimate of long range space needs based on projected holdings, program of services,
new services and overall projected growth for the next 25 years.
As we continue this process, there will be more information needed and many
options examined. As you can guess, the board has spent many hours on this project
and knows there are many more ahead. The board is totally committed to creating a
vision that best meets the needs of current and future library users — using the
interviews, focus groups and space needs study as a source of direction. We will share
this vision as it unfolds in ftiture issues of Browsing.

Jack Hicks and Chris Kopeck
prepare for the 2003 show.
The Library’s Punch and Judy Players will celebrate their 30th birthday with a
performance of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic —Treasure Island - an exciting
tale of pirates Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. (space limited, register
early!) For all ages!
The Library’s puppet theater was built in 1973 by Administrative Librarian Jack
Hicks and was intended to last no longer than two or three years. That first year the
theater was featured as the Library’s float in the Fourth of July Family Days Parade
and was the focus of a summer long puppet workshop for sixth graders in the
Youth Services Department.
What grew out of a $400 gift from the Deerfield Newcomers Club in 1973 has
'M

now lasted 30 years and entertained thousands of children and their parents. Thanks
r t
v
Newcomers.
That first year saw the beginning of a repertoire puppet company—The Punch
and Judy Players—which over the years has staged hundreds of performances. The
plays remain the old standards—Sleeping Beauty, Treasure Island, Rumplestiltskin,
Puss in Boots, Beauty and the Beast, St. George and the Dragon, Pecos Bill, Frog and
Toad, Anansi the Spider, Three Billy Goats Gruff, as well as some written by Library
staff—Dinosaurs in Deerfield and Masters of the Hidden Planet.
The Punch and Judy Players themselves come from all the
Departments in the Library— Jack Hicks and Sally Brickman,
fy?
Administration; Chris Kopeck and Cindy Schilling from Youth Services;
Judy Hortin from Reference Services; Sidney Barnes, Circulation; and
many others over the past 30 years. Our puppets were all designed and
hand sewn by our Staff Artist, Betty Reschke. One of our greatest
rewards comes when young parents relate to us that they saw a perfor
mance at the Library when they were young and they have now brought
their children to see Punch and Judy.
Some people have asked why we still do puppet plays in the age of
video and computer games. Simply because puppets are a counterpoint to
Hollywood and TV. You do not need computers, play stations, Dolby,
Panavision, Rambo, Power Rangers or Bat Man to entertain children and
they get a full and steady dose of that kind of electronic entertainment
elsewhere. We are convinced that puppetry reflects literature, encourages children to read,
and makes the books they have read come alive to them. The puppets are in a child’s
scale, they are a live performance, they stimulate imagination, and they are not seen
elsewhere with any regularity. So, we invite one and all to celebrate 30 years with us as
we perform an old favorite—Treasure Island.

“This Library is Like a Great
Gift in My Life”
J
udging by the Spring, 2003 community survey prepared by the Public Opinion
Laboratory of Northern Illinois University, many area residents share the feeling of
the patron whose comments headline this article.
The POL’s random telephone survey of 1,003 library users found that the library is serv
ing the community well, with a great deal of satisfaction regarding current hours of
operation and high positive ratings. “86% of library users rate Deerfield Library as
“excellent, or very good”. Highest ratings went to a “helpful/knowledgeable staff’.
A very large 85% of respondents were library cardholders and 73% of respondents had
visited the library in the past 12 months.
How do people use the library? Five main reasons include: recreational fiction and non
fiction reading, borrowing videos, utilizing materials and programs, and using the
library reference materials.
The survey also showed that the majority of residents, regardless of length of residency
in the community, responded favorably to expansion and most preferred expansion at
the present location. A space needs study last spring by Anders Dahlgren of Library
Planning Associates found that the library (currently at 31,162 square feet and fully
used), should be 38,600 to 54,000 square feet just to meet the current needs to accom
modate a growing print and non print collection as well as to meet the needs for reader
seats, offices, library programs and story time rooms. Unfortunately vertical expansion
in the present location is complicated and difficult as the building’s roof is not stressed
for the load.
During the summer the POL conducted twelve focus groups for staff, village officials,
kids, parents, seniors, non users, younger childless residents and Riverwoods/
Bannockburn residents.
All of the information culled from the survey and focus groups will become part of a
long range plan to be developed by the library board. A long range planning committee
of the board has already devoted many hours to preparing a documented plan/vision for
the library which will best serve its thousands of users. The survey showed that patrons
see the library’s role as a cultural and intellectual community center of the village with
something to offer everyone; this will be taken into consideration in future planning.
Reference copies of the completed space needs and community survey reports are avail
able to the public at the Library’s Reference Desk.
This online subscription database is avail
able to all, free of charge, on computers in
the Deerfield Library’s Reference
Department. It is also accessible to
Deerfield Library cardholders at home or
work via the library’s website, www.deerfieldlibrary.org (Then click Online
Databases, then Infotrac and be ready to
enter your Deerfield library card number
when asked).
A useful tool for investors, business
people, consumers and students, the
Business & Company Resource Center
database includes: magazine, journal, &
newspaper articles (many full-text); indus
try overviews & rankings; and a broad
range of company information including
financials & reports. In addition to the
many periodicals indexed in full- text arti
cles, other database sources include:

Directory, Brands and Their Companies,
Business Rankings Annual, Encyclopedia

PATRIOT ACT
People have asked me about the
Patriot Act and what the controversy is
all about regarding libraries. In short,
it is Federal legislation enacted shortly
after the 9-11 catastrophe that allows
the government—the FBI—to look at
library patrons’ record files, Internet
access records, and any other record
the Library keeps on its users or rou
tine internal files used to operate the
Library. This can be done without ben
efit of traditional due process proce
dures and carries extreme penalties to
the Librarian for non-compliance,
quick punishment if information about
this governmental access is revealed—
to anyone. The genesis of this Act
stems from the idea that the 9-11 ter
rorists used libraries as a base for their
communication activities.
Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis
said ‘The greatest dangers to liberty
lurk in the insidious encroachment by
men of zeal, well meaning but without
understanding.” Libraries have tradi
tionally been strongholds of the
Constitution’s guarantee of freedom of
speech, the right to privacy, and the
freedom of inquiry. Patron privacy and
confidentiality have always been guiding

Some libraries have posted large signs warning their clients of this
legislation. I have been asked why I have not put up disclaimer
signs like this informing our residents that their library records might
be reviewed by the government without notice. The answer is sim

public’s reasonable expectation of privacy by warning them that in
the library, privacy does not exist. Signs cancel any vestige of privacy.
The Library has always followed, and will continue to follow the
Illinois Compiled Statutes—provision 75ILCS 70/1-2—‘The
Library Records Confidentiality Act”— which deals directly with the
explicit right of all citizens to have their library records held in con

Graphic Artist Betty Reschke:
In Memoriam
On April 23,2003 the Deerfield Library
staff lost a dear friend, who this year cele
brated 34 years as a library employee. When
our California-born graphic artist Betty was
first employed the library was located in
what is now the West Deerfield Township
Office. In the present building her artistic
flair blossomed in a “behind the scenes”
I have no problem with the concepts surrounding national security.
Surely, only a fool would think that we are not all vulnerable to
internal terrorist acts and that these acts do not pose a
serious, palpable reality. It is impossible for us to consider these
issues wholly within the framework of the old ideas we held near
and dear before the tragedy of 9-11.1 guess what bothers me about
the Patriot Act is not that libraries have been thrust into the middle
of a debate not of their making where they had no input, nor the lack
of traditional due process, nor the invasion of privacy, nor the
implied violation of hard won and cherished First Amendment
rights. What does trouble me is that the Patriot Act can easily be
seen as an insidious encroachment, first-step, beginning of an omni
scient government. I certainly question the need for that step in a
Constitutional Democracy. I am afraid, after all, that “the fault dear
Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves”.

workroom. She sewed hundreds of original
puppets for the library’s puppet theater, pre
pared posters for our programs using an
ancient printing press, built large structures
such as the 4th of July bookworm, a bam, a
mural, exhibits and displays and fashioned
countless creative projects. She responded
immediately to our often last-minute
requests. When she took ill several months
ago she was re-sewing, for the umpteenth
time, the cloth furniture and inhabitants of
the little tree house (dollhouse) that has been
a fixture in the Childrens’ department for
decades. Betty had a multitude of interests
including golf, swimming, jazz (especially
at Ravinia), nature, the Southwest, and her
Michigan summer retreat. Her many talents
and cheerful smile will be greatly missed by
the library staff and the public who so
admired her hard work. In a 1997 Deerfield
Review article celebrating the library’s 70th
anniversary, Betty’s photo was featured and
she modestly responded about her long
tenure at the library “It’s just an enjoyable
way to pass the time!” Betty lived in
Highland Park and leaves two daughters.
Her husband passed away several years ago.

�prom Sunday Mueller,
Newly Elected Library
Board President
What ayear ahead on the library board!
0„e of the challenges and greatest responsibilities
of a board is long range planning, taking that long,
hard look into the future and developing a vision
as well as the plan to achieve it. Your library board
is in full gear in this endeavor.
We have been pleased to see the telephone survey
results of over 1,000 area residents. Your thoughts
and suggestions are helping us identify the issues
to be explored in the 15 focus groups to be held
this summer. If you can participate in one of these
groups, please do.
Our job as board members is to represent you, the
community and all its diverse components, to our
library. When considering changes to its operation,
we strive to keep in mind all our constituencies
and tty' to balance the needs of each group.
Fortunately, the members of our board directly rep
resent most of these groups and we are all frequent
users of the library’s materials and facilities. Our
efforts are easily a “labor of love”.
I am pleased to serve as the incoming president
and have several goals for the year ahead. Chief
among them is reaching out to those of you who
visit the library less frequently. I hope we can
familiarize you with the wonderful services avail
able there, including the services of our very peo
ple friendly reference librarians. They stand ready
and eager to help you find answers to your ques
tions, to show you some of our amazing reference
materials, and to help you search the ‘Net quickly
and effectively. Considering the immense amount
af information “out there”, I think you’ll find a
Jbranan to be a valuable research partner.

A Vision for the
Library
by Don Van Arsdale, Deeifield Library
Trustee, Chair of the Long Range
Planning Committee (and Director of
the Winnetka Community House)
D
aniel Burnham said
“make no small plans
as they have no power
to fire men’s souls”. Due in part to
Mr. Burnham’s foresight and
vision, we enjoy Chicago as one of
the truly great cites in the world.
Ten years ago, the Deerfield Public
Library Board of Trustees and staff
created a Master Plan for the
library. Using community input,
this process resulted in a plan
which improved the library facility
in many significant ways. Some of
these improvements include: the
opening up and renovation of the
lower level resulting in the Tom
Parfitt Adult Fiction Room, the
installation of a public elevator,
Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) improvements, renovation of
the children’s reading room, instal
lation of a new computer system,
remodeling of the front lobby and
the purchase of new materials.

Board President Sue Benn Retires
We are grateful to Sue Benn who has served on
the Deerfield Library Board of Trustees for 27
years and as president for the past twelve of
those years. In April she will step down from her
post. Originally appointed to the Board, she
became interested in the library while working on
book sales with the Library Friends Group.
Subsequently, she ran for office and won four
elections, each requiring six year terms. She has
particularly enjoyed the board work because of
the variety of personalities and friends she’s
made along the way.

Sue Benn
She has observed many changes in the Village since moving here in 1955
and raising her three children in Deerfield. “Life was simpler then,” she said
“yet there has been continuity in the library. It’s like raising a child; you
don’t notice the growth because you are so close to it.” She has overseen a
new roof, boiler system, major building renovation, ongoing computer tech
nology, policy changes and the challenge of making best use of available
space. Her fondest accomplishment has been hiring and supporting Jack
Hicks as administrative librarian. “Jack has hired an excellent staff, main
tains contact with the Village, the library profession, computers and a myri
ad of details.” Having worked so closely with staff and board on so many
projects she feels she is leaving a family. She modestly says of her years on
the board— “I got more than I gave.”
An active community member, Sue was elected 2002 “Volunteer of the
Year” at the Chicago Botanic Garden, and has many interests. She and her
husband Walt particularly enjoy trips to visit her children. She plans to keep
a close eye on the library’s future and to continue visiting almost daily as
she does now. (She might even volunteer again for the “sticky job” of.
lemonade service in the library which she has done every year for July 4th
Family Day).
On April 1 the Village will hold an election for a total of three openings on
the library board.

�A Vision for the Library
Continued from page I
The current Board of Trustees began a new long range plan
in 2001. Once again, we are looking to our residents for
input on how the library can serve your needs in the future.
We want to solicit your ideas about our services, materials,
hours, staff, programs, and facilities.
Your thoughts and opinions are essential to the success of
our plan. If you are contacted by POL, please take the 5-10
minutes to complete the telephone survey. If you are con
tacted to participate in a focus group, please consider say
ing yes.
We have contracted with the Public Opinion Laboratory
(POL) of Northern Illinois University to conduct a telephone
survey. Additionally, POL will conduct a series of focus
groups where we will delve into the information gleaned
from the telephone survey. We will listen and consider the
results of these conversations as we begin planning and
visioning the future of the Deerfield Public Library.
The library services are here for your enjoyment. We know
you want this to be an excellent community resource. We
want to position this library to meet the needs of current
and future patrons. Like Daniel Burhnam, we understand
that to prepare for the future, you must plan for the future.
Shelving in the “West Wing" main floor of the library has been
remodeled for videos, DVD's, CD's and audio books. Now there is
space to grow and to increase our collections. If you have any
trouble locating materials, please ask a reference librarian for
assistance.
7th Annual Rosemary Sazonoff

For adults, the “contest” was a little different this year and very
special. An elegant Victorian Valentine Tea was held in February
for all those who entered. The tea was the prize for all. At the very
literary event each area resident read their original work: a love let
ter or love poem. Entrants included: Dick Baer, Leslie Outten,
Edward Salerno, Dorothy Fiedler, Marilyn Weigel, Marshall Smith,
Trudy Grundland, Marilyn Maxen, Sharon Greenspan Lewin, Vicki
Burbach and John Benson.
Before the readings, contest entrants and their guests enjoyed the
very elegant Victorian tea.
The Youth Services Department held a contest with cash awards
and a family reception. The Youth Services winners were: Kaitlin
Murphy, Nicholas Solomon, Karen Sittig. The Runners up were
Lean Grunberg, Samara Kipnis, Veronica Behrens, Alexander

□ Reminder: If you do not have your library card with you or your library card
has expired, you will have to have some type of approved identification before
you can check out materials or update your library card. Proper ID: driver’s
license, checkbook, voter registration or utility bill.
□ We have a checkout limit of five items on a subject—per family. This is to
insure that all of our patrons will have access to our materials. (Often school
assignments and other circumstances create sudden heavy demand beyond the
stretch of our collection).
□ Our unique card-operated Internet service is free to anyone 18 or older and
youth with signed parental permission. There is a one time sign up; your library
card is then scanned and you are eligible to use the Internet for up to one hour
per day. If you live in another community and do not have a library card, bring
ID and we will provide you with a special card. There are five Internet stations
in Reference plus a sixth 15 minute express station. In Youth Services there are
two stations. (Your library card must be current and free from fines!).

The library’s subscription to the Physicians Desk Reference online database allows
you to search free of charge for information on both brand name and generic drugs
and to check for drug interactions, adverse reactions, etc. If you have a Deerfield
Library card and an Internet connection, now you can find this information from
home or work without coming to the library — especially handy for those home sick!
Of course at the library anyone — with or without a Deerfield card — can use both
the database and the print book version of PDR.

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
There was a strange stillness. The
birds, for example where had they
gone? Many people spoke of them,
puzzled and disturbed. The feeding
stations in the backyards were
deserted. The few birds seen any
where were moribund; they trem
bled violently and could not fly. It
was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had
once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds,
doves, jays, wrens, and scores of other bird voices
there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields
and woods and marsh. So began opening passages in
Rachel Carson’s 1962 classic, cautionary, tale Silent
Spring. The message of that book was immediate and
lasting: what man does to alter his environment can
sow the seeds of a terrible harvest. That book detailed
the inexorability, precision, and terrible lasting price of
unintended consequences.
Those lines were recalled to me late this summer when
my neighbors and I realized that the chorus of birds our
neighborhood had always enjoyed was silent. Gone were
the sparrows, the crows, the blue jays and robins, gone
were almost all the birds except ones passing through.
No longer was I awakened to the raucous caws of a
family of crows that frequented my backyard, no more
brazen blue jays. In fact no birds at all. The cause is, of
course, the West Nile Virus. Illinois leads the nation in
human cases of the illness and in the number of deaths
attributed to it. For reasons seemingly unknown to sci
ence, Illinois is the epicenter of this new and baffling
illness and the first to fall are our friends the birds. As
Rachel Carson had so accurately predicted, the birds
acted as the barometer of the health of the environ
ment.
Well-meaning voices have been raised to resurrect the
use of DDT—one of the most dangerous and persistent
poisons ever devised by man—as a possible cure.
One can only ponder if the old vaudeville punch line
wouldn’t literally be true: the proposed cure being
worse than the disease. I have watched through late
summer and now into fall for a return of the birds to my
yard. A few have come, but are quickly gone, and no
crow caws for my arising. Over the years hundreds and
hundreds of sparrows have called my backyard home
and my birdfeeder their Sunset Foods. I have housed,
fed, and nurtured a sprawling family of sparrows in my
yard for twenty-five years. This spring there were brood
after brood of new hatchlings in that birdhouse—the
insistent peeping announcing a new brood and the exit
of the fledglings.
Recently, I started to clean out my bird houses as I do
every fall—so that next year’s birds will have a clean
start on their child rearing. The wren house was empty,
the second general purpose house always cherished by
starlings was too. But the home place for my sparrows
brought upset. Amidst all the string, and feathers, and
sticks, and fluff there were the little abandoned
nests—forlorn in their vacancy. The final nest brought
sorrow. In it were three tiny shriveled, mummified,
sparrow nestlings and three unhatched eggs. The birds I
carefully buried in my flower garden along with two
cracked eggs. The third egg, perfect, speckled in mot
tled gray, white and brown. I put it in a finch’s nest I
had brought home from a backpacking trip of forty
years ago. I don’t know why.
This seems like a fall to reflect on unintended conse
quences and the price to be paid for our folly, hubris, or
ignorance. Those little dead birds broke my heart. I had
not had the good sense to realize that West Nile could
strike so quickly as to kill the parents in mid-flight. The
victims of our stupidity are always the tiny, the power
less, the innocent. The solutions I will leave to better
minds. But as Rachel Carson warned—it is always a dis
aster to rush headlong to conclusions, to push for solu
tions that may destroy more than they save, or to trust
loud voices more than good sense. Too many lessons, it
seems, get forgotten.

Library Service for Residents of Unincorporated Areas
With the passage of Illinois Public Act 92-0166 in January, 2002, the rules have changed
for purchasing a library card if you live in Riverwoods, Bannockburn or unincorporated
areas of Deerfield. If you are new to the area or have never had library privileges, you
must bring in your current tax bill to determine the cost to you. If you hold a recently
expired non resident card, there is a grace period at the old rates.
The good news is that the new state law will allow you to have borrowing privileges at
other libraries with your non resident fee card.
If non-residents have a question, or wish to purchase a new card please see Joan or
Sidney at the Front Desk. Library cards are free to Village of Deerfield taxpayers.

�“I was seven years old when the
library opened,” said Deerfield
resident Muriel Zahnle, (maid
en name Lemm) as she
recalled her first visit to the
:
original Deerfield Public
Library seventy-five years
ago. It was located inside the

“You have to understand I was looking at it from a little girl
perspective. We entered from the outside of the building,
through the white double doors. I could smell the new varnish
and marveled at the new shiny unmarked maple floors. The
windows were bright, with no coverings. The wood was light,
but there was no front desk like our library today. The librari
an Mrs. Wolff sat at a yellowish teacher’s desk. She stacked
the books on her desk as they were returned. We had cards to
sign books in and out, and Mrs. Wolff had a stamper. My
favorite books were the Bobbsey twins and all those other
twins books, the Eskimo twins, the Japanese twins, etc. The
books in those days were bound in one color: red, blue, etc.
and had few illustrations. The library was only in one room.”
“There was no furniture to sit on like we have today, and the
hours were 2-5 p.m. a few days a week as I recall. Mrs. Wolf
(the librarian) was always available and remembered your
name. She was a small, gentle person with large glasses who
serviced her readers, always finding the right book for the
right person. It was friendly because she made it friendly. She
had a card catalog but the budget must have been limited
because she always welcomed donations. I enjoyed her. Her
assistant was a young, slim Mrs. Dobbins.”
“I had never been in a library before. On a summer’s day my
girlfriends and I would walk across Waukegan Road (from
Osterman where Muriel lived), past the Standard Oil filling
station. We often stopped at Herman’s ice cream parlor.
(Deerfield Commons was a field.) We had room to roam and
could go safely. The library took care of activity during the
long summer; we had lots of time to browse. You could take
books out for several weeks but you couldn’t call the auto
matic renewal number from home like you can now! The
library was too small to be a social center as it is now;
instead, Deerfield was a small church community. It is such a
different town for me now.”
Muriel continued her visits to the library’s next home at the
758 Waukegan Rd., a converted storefront, and then to the
third site which is now the
West Deerfield Township

from home repair to chil
dren’s term papers. Of
course she recalls when the library moved to its present loca
tion in 1971; she worked on the referendum that built this
library. “We love reading around the fireplace now.” A life
time library user, Muriel
enjoys biography, drama,
and cookbooks. She espe
cially appreciated the
talking books when she
had problems with her
eyesight. As Muriel has
been a library user for 75
years, Jack Hicks,
Administrative Librarian,
said simply, “Muriel, you

imagines the offstage pre-story of Hamlet,
when Claudius fell in love with his brother’s
queen, and the dastardly deed in the garden
was first set in motion.
