Library to Have New Computer System
Continuing the library's Year
of Renewal, and the village’s ren
ovation, the library' provides a
central, cultural focus for the
Deerfield community. Many of
our adult programs this fall are
“partnering” and highlighting
Deerfield businesses, organiza
tions and individuals who make
our community richer.

Yvonne Sharpe, library board
member since 1992, will be retir
ing from her board position
because she will no longer be a
Deerfield resident. Board presi
dent Sue Benn said, “She has
been a loyal and active member
for many years and will be sorely
missed” Mrs. Sharpe chaired the
library’s building committee for
all the years of library renova
tion. She came on the board to
fill the unexpired term of Wilbur
Page and thereafter was elected
and re-elected. Sharpe’s unex
pired term can be filled by board
appointment until the 2001 vil
lage election. Anyone interested
in this temporary vacancy may
contact the library business
office.

To provide faster, better and more contemporary computer services, the library will be
leaving the computer consortium of Morton Grove, Skokie and Waukegan. This change
presents new challenges but more importantly will free Deerfield of the restrictions and
impediments of the consortium. This will allow us to present more up-to-date computer
services and access at higher speeds. It should permit wider access to books and materi
als. Specifically, the library will offer more web-based products, easier home and remote
access, better catalog access and faster and cleaner telecommunications. There will be
more service outlets and more terminals offering modem services at high speed.
We are in the process of signing a contract with epixtech, a Provo, Utah based firm,
for the next computer system which should be operational before May, 2001. This system
will supply all the familiar, easy-to-use services such as catalog searching, telephone
renewal, check out and circulation functions well known to our clients, and supply a
home page with links to appropriate library sites, full text magazine indexes and remote
access to library resources. This system will be funded through the use of Tax Increment
Financing and will not require a tax increase or bond issue.
Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks said, “We have listened to our residents’ sugges
tions and feel sure the new system will meet their needs and expectations whether they
are in the library or gaining access from home.” Library board president Sue Benn feels
“The public will be pleased with the high speed computers and new services; this is a real
step forward in providing information and web access for the community.” □

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
I once saw a cartoon of a nuclear physicist telling a classical musician that he only liked 18th cen
tury music. The response from the peeved musician was, “...that’s great, I only like 18th century
science.” Listening recently to a golden oldies radio station I was struck by the idea that maybe
popular culture is not shaped by the best a society offers but what is "remembered”— or imagined
— as the best. Is this to make us comfortable with events that might have been painful? Maybe
pop culture can’t stand critical scrutiny.
The talky disk jockey kept up a constant patter about the songs he was playing; recounting
minutiae from the rock stars’ lives, incidentals about the recording sessions, and the marvelous
night he had actually met the stars in question. The guy went on and on, yakking and playing the
music he claimed defined a generation. The only problem was my wife and 1 are members of that
generation and that was not the music we listened to at all; in fact most of his songs were nerd
anthems, or worse, just plain banal junk. Which raises the question: do we invent our past in our
own image and likeness or is it just nostalgic mythmaking? Does this shield us from a harsher
reality?
Some of the problems are that the disk jockeys aren’t old enough to have experienced these
events, or are too addled to remember them clearly. What sells and what is accepted and extolled
today becomes yesterday’s top hits. This doesn’t apply to rock and roll only, but to the big band
era as well—and I suspect all eras—equally. A look at any Variety Top 40 songs often reveals the
oldies that are so popular today—and are supposedly reflective of the times—were not at the top
of the charts, or even mainstream, at the time. The people who trade and revel in nostalgia are
more affected by time and society’s bias than they are by the absolute accuracy of the memories or
the quality of the product, (except in the case of Jack Benny)
Recent movie lists that purport to define the “best ever” movies have been so far off the mark
as to be laughable. I think any compiled list of “best” movies should only be made by people over
fifty-five years old, who have actually seen the full movie in a theatre where they paid full price to
see the film. Any film seen in a film class or at a film society should be instantly disqualified
because this all adds up to revisionist history at its worst: pop culture peddled by pasty faced, soft
handed, trendy types. These are the same people who define Stravinsky and Bartok as “modem”
music even though their works are a hundred years old. Is classical music suspect as well? Is that
why snobby aficionados walk out or snub modem composers? Could be.
Now we all know about revisionist history, how an event will change with the telling over time,
until a breakthrough historian will produce a thesis that is a direct contradiction to historical fact
and reality that somehow comes to be accepted as insight. Revisionist history ought to have anoth
er name: bad history. A recent and widespread spate of revisionist history has poured forth regard
ing the World War II generation—even to the point of being called “...the greatest generation” by
gushy writers like Tom Brokaw and Stephen Ambrose. We owe those boys a lot, but let’s not puff
up reality; the vets from WWII deserve better than that—they deserve the truth, our eternal grati
tude, and a monument in Washington, D.C.
I have always wondered how that generation would have reacted to the divisive, emotionally
charged, and morally ambivalent times of Viet Nam. Sometimes it is easier to do the right thing
when the choices are clear cut, or in fact there are no choices. A casual glance at the Viet Nam era
discloses at least a half a dozen myths or outright untruths that have grown up and thrived, perpe
trated by well meaning revisionists, which have entered our collective conscience as reality. Which
leads me back to a lighter vein, that gabby disk jockey with his comball alternative reality. We
don’t need to invent an idyllic past or create fake, artificial heroes; we have them today because
today are the good old days and they are good enough.

Programs,
Projects and
Progress
A report on the year 2000,
Deerfield Library’s Year of
Renewal
During our millennium year we strived to
become a focus in our community, where ren
ovation was the word for the whole Village.
We were involved with bricks and mortar,
computers, landscaping and elevators and still
managed to add over 10,000 books, videos,
audio cassettes and... new this year DVD’s
and books on CD... and to serve all your
information needs.
Our Community where hundreds took passports
behind the scenes to view each department;
music, beanie baby prizes and food were pop
ular! The Bristol Renaissance Faire visited us
in May, taking us back to the 16th century as
Queen Elizabeth Tudor knighted the children,
townspeople picnicked on the lawn and music
and dancing provided a leisurely contrast to
our 21st century.
Programs
We held 61 adult programs, including several
co-partnered with the Deerfield Fine Arts
Commission, Deerfield Area Historical Society,
U.S. Foreign Policy Association and North
Suburban Library System. We offered income
tax assistance, flu shots, voter registration,
free July 4 lemonade, Ravinia passes, the 4th
annual Rosemary Sazonoff Creative Writing
Contest, 15 classes on using the Internet and
monthly Librarian in the Lobby, our “in person
suggestion box”.
We served Deerfield schools and students
with our annual Student Government Day,
where we learn along with our teens, and with
library instruction for junior high students.
Youth Services Reading Roundup has been a
rousing success for 2-8th graders, and
Exploring Art Through Literature workshops
are the talk of the town. Crafts and storytime
are popular Family Fun Night activities.
Library visitors from the Chinese Academy of
Sciences said, “If only we had something like
this for our children in China!”
Other projects finalized this year are lobby
and entrance remodeling to meet ADA stan
dards, rebuilding of an elevator, and rebuilding of the west garden (Youth Services area),
Cell phone use was banned to make the library
more peaceful
Progress
Plans for the future include a revamp of the
AV room to become more accessible and
attractive: new lights and proper shelving for
books on tape, videos and DVD’s
Jeff Blumenthal was appointed to the
library board to replace Yvonne Sharpe in
2000. Bill Seiden also served in 2000 as presi
dent of the North Suburban Library System. In
2001 Bill Seiden and John Anderson will leave
their Deerfield Library board positions and a
2001 spring board election will bring changes
to the makekup of the library board. We were
saddened at the death this year of Tony
Sabato who retired from the library board in
1997 after 19 years of service.
During 2000, Glenn Poch was selected Head
of Technical Service and spearheaded new
computer installation. Better equipment and
response time has brought us up to speed for
the 21st century and we shall continue to
enhance our collection, and provide valuable
service to our community.
Projects
Readers of all ages pledged to read 100
books in 2000 in our Century Readers Club. By
December, 5000 books were read and a
reception was held for those ach.ev.ng this
admirable feat. Read Around the World clubs
