Across the Librarian's Dest^
On Sunday, April 5th, the Library
will celebrate its 65th birthday. We
will do this symbolically on the first
day of National Library Week. We
will have bands and ice cream and
music, but the real celebration will be
the recognition of the people who
have made us the exemplary library
we are today. I know there are a lot of
people to thank.
We know many of the people we
want to thank during the recognition
part of our celebration: Bob York, Tom
Parfitt, Mary Mazur, Pat Horne and
Keith Nickoley, are the easy names.
What we really need help with is all
the names of all the people who
helped pass out handbills, held coffee
hours, spoke at schools — those who
worked tirelessly behind the scenes to
pass the numerous referendums, bond
issues, special legislation and court
challenges that built this Library.
It is often forgotten that this Li
brary has had a long and colorful his
tory full of wonderful personalities
and issues. We have seen numerous
tax fights, boundary squabbles, cen
sorship battles, "Save Our Library "
campaigns, along with agitated re
former candidates. The present build
ing and the services we offer did not
just happen — they were the result of
long, hard work by many concerned
and visionary residents. The Library
has withstood the test of time.
If you know the names of those
who made this Library possible,
please take the time to write them
down and let me know what they did
— large and small — because every
one is important. We want to

recognize them in an appropriate way
on our 65th birthday. The Library is 65
years old and they made it happen.
We owe a debt of gratitude to those
head Librarians who founded, nur
tured, and developed the Deerfield
Public Library. Starting in 1927 and
progressing to today there have been:
Mrs. Frank Russo, Mrs. Chester Wolf
— for over 25 years, Mrs. Helen
Haney, and the builder of this Library,
Mrs. Suzanne Whetstone. They estab
lished a Library that serves the com
munity well and is a source of great
pride.
We also want to take time to ac
knowledge the lasting contribution
made to this community by a single
individual. The Library will name its
Young People's Department in honor
of Dr. Diego Redondo. Since Dr. Re
dondo touched and enriched the lives
of so many of us — especially our
children — it is fitting to create a per
manent memorial for him. We will
dedicate the Department in his honor
during our Birthday celebration.
Please let me know those names,
and please come to our Party. You'll
come for the nostalgia, but stay for the
fun.

Administrative Librarian

our "Enrich Your Life" theme with her 1991
economic forecast. Her book, Terry Savage
Talks Money., the Common Sense Guide to
Money Matters, is "a reliable introduction to
the widening world of do-it-yourself money
management". It is one of the three best
selling financial books in America today. A
founding member of the Chicago Board

come award winning author (20 years in the
business), journalist and raconteur, Bill
Brashler. He has just completed his ninth
book, Murder in Wtiglcy Field, and will in
troduce us to his main character, Duffy
House. Duffy will be included in a new
series of mysteries. Brashler’s 1989 novel,
Traders is a "provocative portrait of the
Chicago Board of Trade." He is a lively
speaker with a store of anecdotes who will
share with us some advice about the craft
of writing, getting published and surviving
as an author.
ENRICH YOUR LIFE.....ATDEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
With this spring newsletter, we introduce the new Deerfield
Library logo. The logo, seen above on our new masthead,
depicts a book whose spine and pages form the shape of a lotus
blossom, the ancient symbol of self-creation. This identifying
symbol, represents self enrichment through knowledge.
The Library of Congress has designated 1991 the Year of
the Lifetime Reader, so we celebrate LIFE and the connection
between our materials and services and your daily lives. With
our collections, we answer questions: What to name the new
baby? A definition of ulcers and recipes for this condition?
^^low to take minutes at a business meeting? How to spell a
^Bvord, plan a wedding, make a business plan, give a value to
Grandma’s vase, string some beads?
We help you to learn, grow, solve, laugh, feel and cope.
We enrich your life!
BOOKS
GIVE US
WINGS
A year ago I wrote in this column about
the self-collapse of the Berlin Wall and the
effect world-wide peace would have on
genre fiction. I wrote a year too early. The
war in the Middle East and the repression
in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have a
greater potential for disaster than any we
have faced as a nation in the last forty years.
I back our troops in the Persian Gulf and
President Bush. I also respect those of us
who choose to oppose this war. The U.S.
Constitution guarantees freedom of
speech-enabling citizens to voice opposi
tion to governmental policy. About this
right we should be resolute and justly
proud. As a former Staff Sergeant in the 8th
Infantry Division, I have strong feelings
about the safety of our boys overseas. A
concern closer to home are the racial and
ethnic epithets that are heard to describe
Middle Eastern peoples. These
stereotypes must be rejected by all of us.
I am impressed with President Bush
when he speaks of a new world order
emerging from this catastrophe. Hopefully,
this will mean: a permanent rule of Inter
national Law, a rejection of terrorism as an
element of politics, a refusal to arm any
tyrant with modern weapons, and an
American foreign policy that rises above
the failed concepts that have equated our
friends as our enemy’s enemy.
Can the epic Spring of 1990 still bloom
into a world of peace?
The book I am recommending this
month is The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil,
Money, and Power by Daniel Yergin.
Awash in a sea of oil this timely history
traces man’s grasping for oil: the per
sonalities, nationalism, and the drive for
power and wealth that have created and
exacerbated our current dilemma.

�BENN AND SABATO SEEK
RE-ELECTION
F.YA.
■ Music Listening Area: The library has
two new listening stations in the Fic
tion/Quiet Room. You can now hear
your favorite music on cassette or
compact disc or listen to books on tape
in the library. To do this, select your
audio, check it out, ask for head
phones, and leave an i.d. at the
Circulation Desk.
On April, 2 a local election will be held
for two Deerfield library trustee positions.
^|wo incumbents, Sue Benn and Tony
^^abato, will run for re-election. Both 20
year residents of Deerfield, they have each
had a number of years’ experience at board
posts. Sabato has been board treasurer and
Benn has served on committees of the
seven member board. Also active in other
Deerfield community activities, they are
strong users and supporters of the library.
The Library Board meets monthly, and
elected members each serve six year terms.
Their responsibilities include determining
basic library policy, delegating administrative authority to the director, and
overseeing all major expenditures.
■ It now costs 30 cents to reserve a Deer
field book, due to the rise in postal
rates; you are notified by mail when
your book is in. When books are re
quested from other libraries, there is
no charge; you are notified by
telephone.
■ Missing books cause the library lots of
problems. The book you don(t return
is the book the next person needs.
TRUTH STRANGER
THAN FICTION?
■ It is a true axiom that when times get
tough, people use the library more.
The first month of 1991, adult refer
ence questions increased 19 9c from
last year. January 1990: 1,716 ques
tions answered. January 1991:2,047.
The library has just received a new fic
tion book about air combat in the Persian
Gulf, First Air by Michael Skinner. Skinner,
a former CNN writer, has published a tech
no thriller whose images beam at us on the
evening news. The political scenario is dif
ferent, but its depiction of modern war, as
it could happen (already has) in the Persian
is eerily coincidental.
■ Friends of the Library group is becom
ing active and vital. For $5 a year you
can join. Applications at front desk.
AND THE WINNERS IN
THE CHILDREN’S
CATEGORY ARE...
CALLING OUT OF TOWN?
Deerfield Library has always housed a
variety of current out of town (USA)
telephone directories. Further, in the past
each North Suburban Public Library has
"specialized" in a different state, in a
cooperative sharing project. (Deerfield’s
"state" is Arizona.)
Now, public libraries are no longer able
to receive a large variety of free city
telephone books. Since costs will be levied,
we are placing a survey form on each
telephone directory to determine use pat
terns and the most needed phone books.
Please continue to ask the reference
librarians for assistance with the out of
state directories. The telephone directory
issue has become a very complicated one
for libraries.
