�From the Director
Every year when I write the fall Browsing
column, I reminisce about back to school
supply shopping. I had a Trapper Keeper
that had adorable puppies in which I
could keep all my 5th grade assignments
in impeccable order. Also, my mother was
persuaded to buy me some fun glittery Lisa
Frank stickers and pencils. I still occasionally
pick up a new glittery pen when I take my
own kids back to school shopping. The new school supplies
motivated me to get ready for the upcoming school year.
Best wishes to students of all ages for an engaging and
inspiring school year.
Fall seemed like the perfect time to survey our community
about library services. It has been a few years since DPL
underwent a strategic planning process and I’m excited to
announce that we are commencing the process this fall!
On the back cover, there is a QR code that you can scan to
take a quick survey to provide us feedback on what we can
do better to serve you. You can also access the survey at
https://deerfieldlibrary.org/survey.
Your responses will help shape our goals and budgets for
years to come. DPL’s mission is to serve our community in
the best possible way. After all, we are a public library and
exist to serve our public.
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
The MakerSpace: Your Imagination Station
In November 2019, we opened the doors to the brand new
DPL MakerSpace. We were visited by many curious and creative
patrons before we had to shut the doors just five months later,
due to the pandemic.
Soon after the closure, we were able to arrange for patrons to
submit projects that staff would process. When complete, the
projects could be picked up curbside. Eventually, we could have
one person in at a time to use the equipment. Now, we are happy
to report, our doors are fully open for appointments and walk-ins.
And, oh, the projects you all have been dreaming up!
At the point that Jackie Guagliardo was dreaming up party plans
for her soon-to-be dentist daughter’s graduation, the previous
issue of this newsletter landed in her mailbox. Jackie read
about the cornucopia of creative options, and quickly made an
appointment to come in and learn more about the MakerSpace.
“The staff was wonderful about working through the many ideas
with me,” said Jackie. “Once I learned about all the tools available,
I came up with a few more ideas. The staff patiently taught me
how to use the equipment, and it was loads of fun.”
Jackie is pictured with a few of the party pieces. The vinyl cutter
was used to make the framed table signs, as well as the white
vinyl teeth on the placeholders. The laser engraver was utilized
to engrave “daughter info” in the wooden bases for picture
frames. The laser
engraver was also
used to engrave
special messages
and illustrations
on water bottles
used at each
table.

Just ahead of
Valentine’s Day,
Ron Swidler
created a
Jackie Guagliardo and a few of her party pieces
created in the MakerSpace.
silhouette of his family on his computer
(dogs included, of course) as a gift to his wife.
Following that success, Ron returned to the MakerSpace with
designs of his three brothers’ families to create a collection of
silhouettes for his mom’s 80th birthday. The vinyl cutter and
the MakerSpace were just the tools and team he needed. The
silhouettes were cut from matte black vinyl, then mounted and
framed as beautiful keepsake birthday gifts.
For an upcoming 60th birthday party, a patron used the
embroidery machine to create special napkins, the laser
engraver for customized shot glasses, and the button machine
for…buttons!
What about personalized baby shower gifts, you ask? Bring in
some onesies and we’ll show you how to use the vinyl cutter
to create iron-on vinyl transfers. Yep, we’ve got the iron, too.
A huge birthday (or graduation) banner always adds a spark to
a celebration. That’s just what our large format printer is here
for, and so much more!
Dust off those boxes full of slides, photos, cassettes, and VHS
tapes. Our popular Digital Media Lab has all you need to
convert that old technology into accessible digital files.
With the reopening, we expanded the MakerSpace creative
team, so there is always someone here to train you on the tools
that will make your ideas a reality. In addition, we have a large
offering of classes for enthusiasts
at all levels. See page 7 for the
upcoming list of programs.
Full details about the MakerSpace
equipment and use, hours of
operation, and access to the online
reservation form are available at
deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace.
Ron Swidler used the vinyl cutter to transform
his silhouettes into framed family gifts.

DPL Community Survey:
We Want to Hear From You!
The Deerfield Public Library is
planning for the future and we need
your feedback. We are in the process
of developing a strategic plan to help
guide the direction of the library
over the next few years. This survey
will provide valuable input to the
strategic plan, and takes 3-5 minutes
to complete.
The survey can be completed online,
and can be accessed by the QR code
provided here or on our website at
https://deerfieldlibrary.org/survey.
Print copies are available at the front
desk, and completed surveys can be
returned at the desk. Survey responses
are anonymous.
Please help us learn more about how
our community uses and views the
library by sharing your ideas and
opinions. We greatly appreciate your
time and feedback.
