Message from
the Director
' JTf-, " ^
We deeply appreciate the t
feedback from the
community as the Library
Board seeks input about
the possible building improvement
project. The March series of Public Open
Houses, the April/May telephone survey,
and the Citizen Input Group have all
contributed to our understanding of the
perspectives, concerns, and suggestions
about the future of the Library in
our village.
What’s next? The Library Board will
review the feedback from the Open
Houses, telephone survey, and Citizen
Input Group. Based on these and other
resources, the Library Board will select
one of the original four options and begin
to develop it further. They will determine
a preferred course of action, and share it
with the Village Board. Then, the
preferred option will be shared with the
community through the second series of
Public Open Houses. Once again, public
feedback will be collected and reviewed
with the Citizen Input Group. By late
summer, the Library Board will
determine whether to proceed with a
possible referendum.
Want to learn more? Have an opinion to
share? The Library Board will continue to
invite participation through the next
series of Public Open Houses. (See
“Planning for the Future” for dates and
times of the sessions.) Take a behind-thescenes tour. Learn about the issues.
Compare us to other libraries. Consider
the costs. To contact a Board member,
call or email them using the contact
information provided on the back cover
of the newsletter, or the Library website.

Planning for the Future
The Library Board is committed to keeping Deerfield residents informed about,
and involved in, the future of the Library. Based upon feedback from the March
series of Public Open Houses and the telephone survey conducted in April, the
Library Board will select one of the four building improvement options presented
and ask the architects and financial consultant to develop it further. During the
next series of Public Open Houses, the selected option will be presented in more
detail and additional public feedback will be sought. Each event in the series
will follow the same agenda, offering residents a variety of convenient times to
attend. One-hour Open Houses will be held Saturday, June 26 at 3 p.m. and
Tuesday, June 29 at 7 p.m.
Results of March Public Open Houses
Five Public Open Houses were held in March to familiarize Deerfield residents
with the Library building history and needs, additional expressed needs of the
community, four possible building improvement options, and the costs projected
for each option—including possible effects on a resident’s real estate taxes.
About 42 members of the general public attended the sessions, and 30 completed
feedback forms. In addition, members of the Citizen Input Group assisted the
Board in evaluating the community feedback and provided their own perspectives
at a special Board meeting held April 24. Of the four options presented, 35%
preferred Option 3—Remodel and Expand, while 60% selected Option 4—Build a
New Library. The remaining 5% chose Option 1 or Option 2 which provide for
changes necessary to meet code, and limited other improvements.
The Library Board continues to receive valuable input from the Citizen Input Group.
Members are: Christine Barr, John Bartok, Cookie Center, Lorraine Clark, Lisa
Crist, Betsy Eisenhauer, Luisa Ellenbogen, Brooke Fogt, Mark Fox, Mike Gruenhut,
Laurie Leibowitz, Rick Lynn, Nancy O’Neill, Jean Reuther, Bob Rosenbacher, Judy
Smith, Amy Thale, Jane Weinstein-Jacobson and Bruce Zimmerman.
Results of Telephone Survey
The Library Board hired the Northern Illinois University (NIU) Public Opinion
Laboratory to conduct a telephone survey of 400 residents of Deerfield. Phone
numbers were chosen at random from those assigned to the Deerfield area—they
were not provided by the Library, nor did NIU have any access to the Library’s
patron database. The survey was developed by NIU with Libraiy input. Results
will appear on the Library's web site. The Library Board will use the findings,
combined with feedback from the Open Houses and other sources, to make a
decision about which building option to pursue, if any.
Updates on the surveys, reports, and Board actions are available at
http://www.deerfieldlibrary.org/deeifield/planning.asp.

�New improvements to Selection and Service
LINKin
You can now search and request an additional 1.8 million items from our
partner libraries in the LINKin network with your Deerfield Public Library
card. LINKin connects the library catalogs of Deerfield Public Library,
Arlington Heights Memorial Library, Cook Memorial Library, Gail Borden Public
Library, and Skokie Public Library. If an item is not available for checkout at
Deerfield Public Library and is available at one of the partner libraries, the
item will be sent to Deerfield Public Library within three or four days. Patrons
will be notified by phone or email when the item is ready for pickup.
On-Shelf Holds
Deerfield Public Library cardholders may now request “on-shelf’ items through
the Library’s online catalog. When a request is placed, Library staff will retrieve
the item from the shelf within 24 hours (excluding Sundays) and put it on the
new self-service holdshelf for the patron to pick up within 5 days. Due to their
high demand, the Library cannot pull DVDs, videos, or video games.
Self-Service Holdshelf
All holds (LINKin books coming from other libraries, on-shelf holds,
Interlibrary Loan items, and regular holds) are now kept on the self-service
holdshelf to the east of the Circulation desk, by the elevator. Items are arranged
alphabetically by patron last name. These books are not checked out to the
patron and still need to be brought to the Circulation desk for check out.
Enotification Contest
All Deerfield cardholders who have signed up for enotification by Saturday, June 19,
will be entered in a drawing for free Ravinia lawn passes. Enotification allows you to
receive notices about holds and overdue items via email rather than by phone. Visit
the Library’s online catalog and log in to your account, click on the “Modify Personal
Info” button and enter your email address. Need help? Stop by any service desk for
assistance.

Message from the Director
Summer Circus
fj
Memories
- X--" ’
As a child on my
first visit to the
circus, I was
awestruck by
assaults on my senses—swirling colors
and panning spotlights, calliope music,
cotton candy liquefying sweet on the
tongue, rough elephant skin and satiny
costumes, and of course the pungent
smells of circus animals! Returning
with my own child thirty years later, it
all came rushing back as we neared the
door, tickets in our hands and excite
ment in our hearts.
Fast-forward to this summer: our
Library staff is finding so many creative
ways to bring the circus to life through
our summer reading programs. While
we can’t quite bring all the excitement
of the circus to you this summer, we
can offer you music from all corners of
the globe, exotic animals leaping off
the pages into your imagination, and
stories and events to stir your senses
on all levels, whether you are an adult
or a child. Just as circuses bring it all
together under the Big Top, so libraries
bring it all together under one roof!
(And sometimes libraries even have a
Big Top, as you will find in our Youth
Services department this summer.)
You can’t take the circus home with
you, but much of what we offer can
be enjoyed anywhere you are this
summer! So, come and make wonderful
libraiy memories a part of your
summer.
