BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield. IL 60015
Winter 1989
Vol. 4. No. 1
Welcome!
New Head Of Reference
I would like to take this opportunity, my
first column as library director, to give a
heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of people
who took time to speak, call, or write to
congratulate me on my promotion. After
so many years of public service in what I
thought was anonymity, your response has
been overwhelming to me. It is so seldom
that librarians get the praise and recogni
tion you have extended. This promotion is
now more than just a promotion, rather
something very personal and rewarding to
me.
Thank you all, so very much, for your
kindness.
My goals for the next three years are re
latively simple ones: Collection develop
ment to more closely match your needs
|nd desires, staff training to insure a conrinued high level of service, and a program
of public relations to make sure all of you
are aware of all of our materials, prog
rams, and service.
We have engaged a nationally known
library planner to help us regain some of
the charm our library has lost with the ad
dition of all the new technology, mate
rials, and books. We are as concerned as
you are about our library’s future.

Jack Alan Hicks
Administrative Librarian
Tax Time
The Deerfield Library will be a
site for Volunteer Income Tax As
sistance this winter. There is no
charge for the service co-sponsored
by the IRS and the American As
sociation of Retired Persons. No ap
pointment is necessary for the ser
vice available in the upstairs meet
ing room, Tuesdays and Fridays
from l-4p.m. February 3 - April 14.
Please bring last year’s return.
Income tax forms are available at
the reference desk, but librarians are
not qualified to offer lax assistance.
Peggy McCabe at the Bibliofile Catalog
Bibliofile Catalog Has
Personal Touch
Deerfield now has additional computer
catalogs, the ‘‘Friendly Biblioftles
which personify technology; they are be
coming popular with users.
The library’s old card catalogs went on
line, on computer, two years ago. The old
card catalog files were gradually phased
out and removed from public service areas
in December, 1988. Deerfield Library
shares the online system, the Joint Compu
ter Program for Libraries (JCPL) with
Skokie, Morton Grove and Waukegan.
JCPL, headquartered at the Skokie Lib
rary, runs a GEAC Computer Corp. 8000
system.
Presently the three Bibliofile CD-ROM
catalog workstations are located in Refer
ence and Young People’s Departments.
Bibliofile contains the same author, title,
and subject information found in the lib
rary’s JCPL GEAC online catalog. Dub
bed “The Intelligent Catalog” it is faster,
smarter, easier to understand, prints off
line at no charge and can talk and offer
friendly instruction! Best of all, the Bibliofile, a “home grown product” is free
standing (no telephone lines) and if the lib
rary’s other computers linked to the JCPL
Skokie office are down, the Bibliofile still
works as a back-up!
Bibliofile operates on a CD-ROM drive
controlled by a hard disk which gives it a
higher level of access programming. It
does not have the Circulation capacity that
the other computers have; it gives a book’s
location, but not whether it is in the library
or on loan. It is programmed and derived
from our regular catalog database, how
ever.
The Bibliofile stand alone system does
clarify searching on online catalogs. Try
it, you'll like it!
Judith Hortin has been appointed Head
of Reference at Deerfield Public Library.
This position was formerly held by Jack
Hicks who is now library director.
With five years experience as head of
reference in public libraries in Manhattan,
Kansas and Joliet, Illinois, Judy returns to
her native Chicago. She has also worked in
special libraries in Manhattan and Chicago
and was in System Reference at Bur Oak
Library System. Before becoming a libra
rian, she was a teacher for the Chicago
Public Schools.
Now a Mt. Prospect resident, Judy said,
“I have always cared about public lib
raries and providing information. It’s hard
to fill Jack’s shoes as I have always re
spected his work. I am looking forward to
meeting and working with the Deerfield
community.”
Judy holds a BA in English from the
University of Wisconsin and a Masters in
Library Science from Rosary College. She
enjoys reading and, regarding other per
sonal information, tells us she is a direct
descendent of Benedict Arnold!

Local Author
Credits Librarians
The Deerfield Library recently received
the book, “The Reverse Effect: How Vita
mins and Minerals Promote Health and
Cause Disease’’, a 1,200 page volume
written by Walter Heiby, who is probably
Deerfield’s most active library user.
In his book, Heiby credits the Deerfield
reference librarians with finding many of
the world-record number of references
(4821) that support the facts and theories
of his highly praised and controversial
book.
Heiby, who has published poems and a
philosophy book, considers himself a
generalist whose intellectual curiosity was
whetted by his parents. Currently, he conducts literature research seminars in nutri-^^
tion, medicine and dentistry at the Univer-^^
sity of Illinois under the auspices of the
Glencoe based Nutrition for Optimal
Health Assn.

Keep VCR Clean
The Deefield Library now owns approx
imately 1500 video tapes for home view
ing (at $1 each for three days). To assure
their best use, it is important to remember
to keep the VCR equipment free from dirt
and other materials which “eat” the tape
or rpnder the picture snowy, the music
muddy. The library’s Technical Services^^
department suggests preventative mea-^B
sures, such as frequent cleaning of video^^
heads (at the heart of the machine) to re
move harmful dirt from oxide particle
buildup. This will keep the library’s tapes
in good order for your viewing enjoyment.

Hicks Stresses
Community Service
Jack Hicks, formerly Head of the
Reference Department, Deerfield Public
Library, was appointed administrative
librarian effective August 1.
He succeeds Suzanne Whetstone who
served as administrative librarian for the
past twenty years. Mrs. Whetstone has
moved to South Bend, Indiana.
Hicks, who is well known and respected
in the Deerfield community, has a strong
commitment to public service and plans to
maintain the library’s fine tradition in the
community. He hopes to improve the
quality of service by adding more
materials, providing access to those
materials, and making best use of
technological advancements available to
libraries. He also wants to emphasize staff
training and “the human touch’’ in delivery
of service and materials.
Always enjoying his contact with the
public at the Reference Desk, Hicks has
pioneered in offering patrons and teaching
(other North Suburban Librarians) online
information retrieval service. Deerfield
was among the first libraries in the nation
to offer searches to patrons at no charge. He
says that the key to online searching is
using it as a standard service, as any other
reference tool.
Jack Hicks
Jack Hicks has lived in Deerfield for 16
years and has been Head of Reference since
1976. He is active in the American Library
Association, Illinois Library Association,
and Midwest Federated Library Associa
tion. He made presentations to the latter two
this spring, about Deerfield Library’s
bibliographic instruction to Wilmot Junior
High students. A paper on this topic has
been prepared by Hicks and teacher
Geraldine Spinella for the November issue
of “Illinois Libraries.’’
Hicks received his B.A. degree from
Hamline University, St. Paul, Minn, and
his Masters degree in Library Science from
Rosary College. He has also served as
Church Librarian at Deerfield’s St.
Gregory’s Church. His wife Donna is Head
of Reader Services at Northbrook Public
Library and they have two daughters,
Maren and Sarah.

women detective novelists speaks at Deer
field Public Library Sunday Nov. 6. Her
talk which begins at 2 p.m. will be
* % Virgins, Whores and Other Women: Im
ages of Women in Mystery
Paretsky has created a new genre of
female detective stories about a hard
boiled private eye, V.l. Warshawski.
Warshawski comes straight out of the
Dashell Hammett-Raymond Chandler
tradition; a loner with a soft spot for the
underdog, a fierce belief injustice if not the
law, enough stubborn courage to ignore
threats from the mob, and an uneasy
relationship with the local constabulary
according to reviewer Joanna Krotz. This
fictional detective lives in Chicago near
Halsted.
In the past 16 years, Paretsky has had five
books and five short stories published. She
has also won several awards. The books in
clude Bitter Medicine, Killing Orders,
Deadlock and Indemnity Only. Her newest
mystei7, Blood Shot, due out this fall is
a main selection of the Mystery Guild
and alternate selection of three other
book clubs. It has already received high
acclaim.
This popular author of suspense holds a
BA from the University of Kansas and a
PhD in history from the University of
Chicago. Blood Shot will be reviewed at a
library program by Virginia Carter at 11
a.m. Oct. 19. Reservations will be required
for the afternoon Paretsky event.
