Summer 2023 | deerfieldlibrary.org
Express Yourself with a special
Summer Reading Program
Details on page 2
�From the Director
FINALLY! Summer is here. I invite you to
maximize your summer enjoyment with one
of the many amazing items in our Library of
Things (LOT) collection.
If you’re craving an outdoor movie
experience, check out a backyard movie
bundle. This was an addition to our LOT
collection during the summer of 2020 and
it was so popular! We have everything you
need to host a backyard movie party. The kit comes with a DVD
player, a blow-up screen, a blower fan, all the appropriate cords
and remote controls, and plastic stakes. Don’t forget to check
out one of our new movies too! While we don’t supply the
popcorn and candy for your backyard movie night, we have
the big stuff you need.
We have a variety of backyard games like cornhole, outdoor
Jenga, bocce ball, giant Tic-Tac-Toe, and checkers. We recently
added a very popular game, Slammo (aka Spikeball).
You’ve seen it…players have a little ball that you slam on
a small net. We also have added Yard-zee, huge dice with a
dry-erase scorecard.
Pickleball sets are available to check out for your next trip to
a Deerfield Park District pickleball court. Explore the night
skies with one of our telescopes, and learn about butterflies
and bugs with a nature kit. Finally, we have travel kits with all
the things you need to keep the kiddos entertained on your
upcoming trip.
For our friends that are spending time in the water, we have a
fishing magnet. This is a multi-use magnet that is designed for
fishing or recovering lost objects underwater. It’s a bit unusual!
Enjoy your summer! As always, please feel free to reach out to me
at amy@deerfieldlibrary.org with any questions or comments.
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
Find Your Voice:
Join the Soundscape of Summer Readers!
Our voices have power. We use our voices to share stories, express ourselves, and spark
change. Our voices include not only the sounds we make, but the words we write, the
art we create, the movements we perform, and the actions we take each day to impact
our world. Presented with support from the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library.
Children and Teen Summer Reading Program

How it Works:
In order to participate in weekly drawings and earn prizes along the

Grand Prize Drawing:
Three winners from each age group (Birth-PreK, K-5, 6-12) will be
selected this year for the Grand Prize Drawing. Winners will receive
a gift card to the Deerfield Park District or a year-long membership
to one of the following Chicago Museums: Adler Planetarium, Art
Institute of Chicago, Field Museum, Museum of Science and Industry,
Shedd Aquarium.
National research from Dominican University finds that students
who participate in public library summer reading programs:
• Scored higher on reading achievement tests at the beginning
of the next school year than those who did not participate.
• Spent more time reading over the summer, read more
books, were well prepared for school in the fall, and read
more confidently.
• Reading even just six books over the summer will help keep
your child’s mind sharp.
Encourage the young people in your life to participate in the
Summer Reading Program!

Summer Reading Program logo.

�Staff Profiles
From your responses to our Community Survey last year, it became clear that the most valued resource
at DPL is our staff! That inspired the introduction of this new occasional feature to let you get to know a
bit more about the amazing people that work here. Enjoy!
• Currently watching: The Night Agent on Netflix, but my favorite shows are
Last Kingdom and Outlander. I always return to The Lord of the Rings film series.
• Fun fact: I have a degree in Architectural Drafting from my home country, Colombia.
One of my hobbies is making custom greeting cards out of parchment. I love dancing and
listening to music – English or Spanish – I don’t discriminate.
Patricia
• Working for DPL the past five years has been like visiting a fair, lots of fun and something new and
exciting around every corner. The staff is so friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and supportive.
Library Aide
• Currently watching: The Mandalorian, Season 3.
• Fun fact: I have a PhD in Old Testament studies from Trinity International University,
and I teach Old Testament courses part-time for Trinity and Wheaton College. I am a
native Texan, who loves the library, barbecue and football (especially the Dallas Cowboys!).
By the way, did you know that Texas used to be its own country?
• I started at DPL in 2013 as an assistant when I was a student at Trinity. Working with
the public was the perfect job to balance with my studies, and in 2018, I accepted the
promotion to my current position.
Lance
Patron Services
Assistant Manager
• Currently reading: Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White.
• Fun fact: During my free time, I enjoy doing cross stitch projects. Right now, I’m working on a
cross stitch of the beloved dog of a DPL colleague.
Sam
• I was hired in 2018 as a Library Aide, and soon after enrolled to earn my Masters in Library Science
from the University of Illinois. Now I maintain our movie, music and video game collections, as well
as the Library of Things collection. I enjoy defying the expectations of the things our community
can check out from a library!
Multimedia Librarian
• Currently watching/playing: The Last of Us
• Fun Fact: 90% of my free time is spent playing Dungeons & Dragons. My favorite class
is cleric! Also, you may see me running around town training for my next half marathon.
• I’ve been with the library for the past decade, and am excited for the next decade!
If you’ve ever had a local history question, I probably found the answer for you!
Anne
Adult Services
Assistant Manager
• Currently reading: The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien, and The Complete Works of
St. John of the Cross.
• Fun fact: I studied Near-Eastern Archaeology and enjoy going on excavations in Israel.
• My favorite thing about the library is our patrons. Life can be tough, and we work hard to meet
you where you are at, and help where we can. This can include sitting down together for one-onone tech help, and also my monthly delivery of materials for our homebound patrons.
Chase
10
Adult Services Associate
� • Currently reading: Aniana del Mar Jumps In by Jasminne Mendez.
• Fun fact: I knit and crochet, and the first knitting project I ever finished was an exact
replica of the scarf that Tom Baker wore as Doctor Who – it’s a 13 foot long scarf!
• As one of the newer staff members, I really have enjoyed my time at DPL and felt
welcomed right away. My favorite thing about my role is that I get to help with collection
development for the juvenile books and graphic novels. I joke that I still only read kids
books for my job, but really it’s my favorite age range. The only reason I met my 100 book
reading goal last year was because I read 50% graphic novels!
Emily
Youth Services
Assistant Manager
• Currently reading: an Advanced Reader Copy (pre-publication) of Lei and the Fire Goddess
by Malia Maunakea.
• Fun fact: I love creating handmade cards; last year, I sent out 100 cards!
Kary
• I’ve been doing storytimes and working with the amazing early childhood educators in Deerfield
for 15 years now! It’s also a joy to collaborate with the DPS 109 librarians and staff and do booktalks
and other programs for the students. We’re lucky to have such wonderful educators in Deerfield.
School Outreach
Coordinator
• Currently listening to: Three Feet High And Rising by De La Soul.
• Fun fact: I am a musician, and have been active in the punk music scene for almost 30 years.
• For my first decade at DPL, I worked in Adult Services and probably answered a question or
two for you at the Media desk. I also coordinated Books to Go for our homebound patrons.
I jumped over to the MakerSpace last year, and am having loads of fun with our staff and
creative visitors. Stop by and see what we are all about!
Ted
MakerSpace Manager
Visit us at Family Days! Please stop by our booth at the
Deerfield Family Days celebration on July 4 to check out all of
the ways the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library is helping to
improve the library experience for everyone. We’ll be in Jewett
Park – hope to see you there!
Consider joining the Friends! We love welcoming new
members to assist us with our primary goal – improving the
programming and offerings at our local library. The Friends have
funded a wide variety of projects, including Memory Kits, new
browsing bins in the children’s section, furniture upgrades, and
the upcoming summer reading program. None of that would be
possible without the support of our wonderful community. For
more information, visit our website.
Are your bookshelves overflowing? If so, consider donating
books in good condition to us! The Friends run Deerfield’s only
(used) book store, and it is all based on contributions from
people like you! All genres of books are accepted as well as DVDs
and video games, but we’re always especially on the lookout
for gently used cookbooks and children’s books. All of the
proceeds from our sales are directed back to library projects.
Our next meeting will be June 26 at 7:00 p.m. in the library – all
community members are welcome!
Visit our website for more information: deerfieldlibrary.org/friends-of-the-library
The Friends can be contacted at 847-945-3311 x8895 or at friends@deerfieldlibrary.org
The Friends is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit group. Contributions may be deductible under IRS regulations.

Summer Reading Logo
Competition Winner
The inspired “Find Your Voice” logo you see in this
newsletter was created by Deerfield High School artist
William Love IV. The winning design was chosen through
a competition organized for students in the Advanced and
AP Graphic Design classes. Participants met multiple times
with DPL staff, providing the students an opportunity
to learn about the Library’s summer program, discuss
their artistic vision, and receive feedback throughout the
design process. Many thanks DHS teachers Tim Bleck and
Chris Sykora for their expert guidance.

Looking back
moving forward
•
•
Deerfield Public Library started the year full
of anticipation about moving to a temporary
site (not even identified until February!) and
getting our building project underway on
time. Although we are in a temporary
location, people have definitely found us!
Total check-outs for all types of materials are
in line with the growth we’ve experienced
these past two years—and we circulate about
490,000 items a year. Free downloads of
Libraiy e-books first doubled, then tripled
during that time! Due to our space
limitations, we are offering fewer programs
than usual, but staples like book discussion
groups for adults and storytimes for children
are in full swing. All in all, community
members are using the Library —including
our expanded online services—as much
as ever.
One of the statistics we don’t like to see
rising is the number of unattended children.
Libraries are public places, and it is safest
(and required) for all children under the age
of nine to be in the direct care of a
responsible adult at all times. We increasingly
find children as young as 18 months
wandering alone, without an adult. This now
happens up to 40 times a month, up from a
low of sue times per month! If you have, or
care for, young children at the Library,
please keep them with you at all times.
Overall, 2012 has been a very successful year
for us, and we deeply appreciate your support
through it all. We look forward to
presenting you with the remodeled,
expanded, and fully stocked Library in
June of 2013. Until then, you can find us at
our temporaiy location and online. We hope
to have the pleasure of serving you veiy soon.

“I didn’t
know that!”
We asked staff to give us the inside track on some frequently over-looked and
under-used Libraiy resources. You may be surprised!
Y\ Kay P., Adult Services: “Ifyou’re lookingfor good
, V recommendations for books, DVDs, and CDs, simply
type 'Staff Picks’ into the Library’s catalog. Click on a
fwL\ mie, scroll down to 'Community Reviews’ and read
Vmk
why this selection made the list. ”
Claudette O., Patron Services:
“Patrons often ask us if we have a
record of the books they’ve read. While the
Library doesn’t keep any records of material that has
been checked out and returned, there is a feature under
'My Account ’ on our website that does give the patron
an option to save their own history. Just log in, click
on the 'My Reading History’ icon and 'opt in’ to the
history option. The history beginsfrom the date the patron opts in,
but should keep the ‘Have I read this one?’ down to a minimum in
thefuture!”

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
ple: if I put up warning signs I would compromise even more the
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

the Patriot Act. I will take every measure in my power to ensure
each resident’s right to privacy and confidentiality—but I am duty

Federal law.

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.
Youth Services’ Cindy Schilling holds the new puppets
made by Betty this year. Cindy, a 13 year library
employee, has just recently received her Masters in
Library Science and we are proud of her!
�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.
