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.

Message from the Library
—
Director
Our mission, in part,
is to provide you
with open access to
the world of infor
mation and ideas.
Sometimes, we bring the world to you!
For example, Deerfield Public Library
is very excited to be hosting the North
Central 0 Gaugers Model Railroad
Club. Train lovers of all ages will delight
in seeing this enormous model train
layout and its villages, bridges and
flashing signals on Saturday, March 24,
from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Don’t miss it!
Another way we will bring the world to
you is through programs about “bou
tique” libraries. These are the jewels of
small, public-access libraries in the
Chicago-metro area, offering highly
specialized collections. For example, in
April we will reveal the treasures of the
Lenhardt Library of the Chicago
Botanic Garden. In May, we will spot
light Lake County’s William D. Block
Memorial Law Library and its valuable
resources. Learn about other unique
libraries in the months to come.
</°l^e
Number ^
The Trains, the Trains!
Saturday, March 24, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
The Library is the place to be when the North Central 0 Gaugers roll into town
with their gigantic 12 by 20 foot model train layout. Ring the bells, lift the gates,
load the trains, and swap stories in this daylong event for all ages. Special sur
prises include a drawing for a free small train set sure to delight any child!
The exhibition will feature a wide variety of passenger and freight trains, from
historic steamers to prototypical modern diesels. Guests of all ages will enjoy
the excitement of the sights and sounds of an interactive, operating model train
layout. Hands-on opportunities will allow attendees to experience the thrill of
running the trains wirelessly. NCOG Club members will be on hand to answer
any questions visitors may have.
Expanded Computer Services
For your convenience, we now offer in
library access to Microsoft Office prod
ucts: Word, Excel, PowerPoint and oth
ers. We are preparing to launch new
services, too, such as e-audio books,
email notifications, and new payment
options via credit card. Watch for fur
ther announcements this spring.
The library now offers Microsoft Office programs such as Microsoft Word,
PowerPoint and Excel to the public. Microsoft Office is available on all public
computers designated for Internet use. Patrons may use these computers for the
Internet, Microsoft Office, or both. Internet access and Microsoft Office usage is
FREE to everyone. Deerfield cardholders and guests using these services for the
first time should register their library cards (or receive guest cards) at the
Reference Desk. Computer usage is now expanded to 90 minutes a day per person.
Finally, I want to thank outgoing Board
member David Wolff for his nearly 18
years of dedicated service to the com
munity and the Library. You will be
missed!

�Joan Bairstow, Head of
Circulation, Retires
It’s no cliche to say that Joan
Bairstow will leave her mark on
Deerfield Public Library. From
putting barcodes in books 23 years
ago to working behind the
Circulation Desk since 1985, Joan
has handled nearly every book, CD,
DVD, and video game in the
Library’s collection. She will retire
on May 25, 2007.
While raising her family in
Northfield, Joan helped create a
Friends of the Library group that
established the Northfield branch
of the Winnetka Public Library. The
branch relied largely on volunteers,
and Joan did everything from paint
ing walls to helping patrons. In
1984, she made the leap to paid
library employee when she came to
Deerfield Public Library to help
barcode the library’s collection.
After the barcoding project was
complete, Joan joined the
Circulation Department full time.
She quickly moved up to Assistant
Head of Circulation and has been
the Head of the department since
1998. Joan has eqjoyed many
aspects of her job, especially work
ing with the patrons. “Many are
friends at this point. We worry
about them when we don’t see our
regulars for awhile.”
Though she will miss being part of
special moments like helping a
child get his or her first library
card, Joan is looking forward to
the many activities her retirement
will allow her to eqjoy. Joan has
children living on both the East
and West Coasts and plans to make
frequent visits. When at home,
she’ll be taking classes and enjoy
ing her membership to the Chicago
Botanic Garden. And, her friends at
the library hope, coming back to be
waited on from the other side of
the desk.

You Gotta Have Friends

tion for the materials and services available from the Library; to supplement
Library services, programs and materials

and needs; and to provide fundraising and
advocacy for the Library. The Friends

New Youth Services Librarian
Mary Scholtens joined the Youth Services
Department in January. Mary recently
graduated from Dominican University with
a Master’s degree in Library and
Information Science, with a concentration
in youth services. Mary has been reading
ever since she can remember and her
current favorite book is Chasing Vermeer
by Blue Balliett. Ait is another one of
Mary’s interests, particularly pottery. Mary
did her undergraduate work in ceramics at
Hope College in Holland, Michigan, and
she currently spends her spare time
creating pottery in her studio.
Acknowledgments
Deerfield Public Library gratefully
acknowledges the many monetary gifts it
received through the years in memory of
Amy Simon. These donations were primarily
used to purchase materials for the Youth
Services Department “to expand knowledge of the world and its people.”
Recently, the family and friends of Olivia
Lucy Yang donated to the Youth Services
Department in Olivia’s memory. The
Library selected Asian-themed books and
language CDs for children.
In addition, the family of Carolyn Colburn
designated Deerfield Public Library as a
recipient of gifts in Ms. Colburn’s memory.
The Library has since purchased several
books in her name.
The Deerfield Woman’s Club has also regu
larly contributed toward adult books in
memory of its members.
The Library is honored to be the recipient
of these memorial gifts.

In January, the Libraiy asked patrons to vote for their favorite book from the last 25 years.
Adults voted for everything from Pulitzer Prize-winner Lonesome Dove to book group
favorite My Sister's Keeper. Children, on the other hand, filled the ballot boxes to the brim
with the same beloved titles. The book with the overall largest number of votes was Harry
Potter. (Not every voter designated which Harry Potter book, but it was clear that Harry
and his friends at Hogwarts were number one with readers.) Second place was the popular
fantasy Eragon, and third place went to The Berenstain Bears.

II is an honor to

nity as your new
Library Director.
The Board, staff
and I seek to build
on the solid foun
dation set in place by former
Administrative Librarian Jack Hicks
and the others who have dedicated
themselves to our purpose over the years.
At our recent all-staff meeting, the staff
members and I began by reading our
mission statement together, aloud: “To
provide our community with open
access to the world of information and
ideas, encouraging lifelong learning
and personal growth in a welcoming
environment.” Each day we seek new
ways to make that happen.
Whether we continue to do this in our
present facility, or perhaps by pursuing
a newer facility to meet the community’s
needs in the future, our focus on this
mission will remain the same.
How will you make the best use of
your library—your access point to the
world of ideas and information?
Whether you enter through our glass
front doors or through our virtual portal
(www.deerfieldlibrary.org), we are
here, ready to serve your changing
interests and needs. Make yourself at
home here!

My Favorite Things
Rosemary Sazonoff Writing Contest:
February 1 - February 28
The Deerfield Library kicks off its 11th Annual Creative Writing

Things.” The contest honors the memory of library trustee,
community activist and journalist Rosemary Sazonoff. The
library encourages aspiring authors from 2nd Grade through
adult to participate.
For Adults: High School and above. Describe one of your
“Favorite Things” in a short, unpublished piece of creative
writing. The library will honor adult winners at a reading and
elegant “high tea” at 2 p.m. on Sunday, March 11, at the library. Get entry forms and
more information in all departments and online beginning February 1. To be eligible,
please turn in your submission by February 28, 2007.

Vote for Your Favorite Book of the Last 25 Years
In 2006 the New York Times Book Review invited an esteemed panel to select the best
books of the past 25 years. Now the library wants to know what your favorites are. Will
you agree with the critics and put Beloved on the top of the pile? Or will a new favorite
emerge? Get ballots at all public service desks and online beginning January 2. At the
end of the month, librarians will tally your choices and announce Deerfield’s favorite
book!

To help you check out items faster, the library replaced the cases on over 2,000 DVDs. The
best way to remove DVDs from their cases after you’ve checked them out and taken them

Scholarship Fund
Announced
The Board of Trustees is pleased
to announce that the recently estab
lished Jack Alan Hicks Scholarship
Fund is now accepting donations
from the public. This fund,
established to honor the long and
dedicated career of recently retired
Administrative Librarian Jack
Hicks, will offer annual grants to
assist Deerfield Public Library
employees in furthering their
professional development. These
grants will help DPL staff continue
to extend their expertise in meeting
the public’s rapidly changing
information-age needs.
To donate, send a check in any
amount to Hicks Scholarship Fund,
Deerfield Public Library,
920 Waukegan Road, Deerfield, IL
60015. Checks should be payable
to the Deerfield Public Library,
with “Hicks Scholarship Fund”
noted on the memo line. Get more

www.deerfieldlibrary.org or call
Linda Shepherd at 847-945-3311.
In the first seven months of 2006, our
patrons have checked out more than
28,000 DVDs. This is 60% more than
the same period last year.
Welcome
With this issue of our newsletter, the Board welcomes our
new Library Director, Mary Pergander.
Ms. Pergander has a strong background in library adminis
tration and other leadership positions. Most recently, she
served as director of the Lake Bluff Public Library. Ms.
Pergander brings energy, leadership, organization and
communication skills plus business experience to this
challenging position.
The decision to hire Mary Pergander as the Library Director was made after a
thorough national search within the profession. She was selected from among almost
forty applicants and will be a great asset to the community.
Ms. Pergander holds an MBA from Lake Forest Graduate School of Management and
an MS in Library Science from the University of Illinois. She assumed her new position
in mid-July, succeeding Jack Hicks, who served the library for 34 years.
The Library Board and staff of Deerfield Public Library invite
members of the community to meet our new director at a public
reception on Sunday, September 17, from 2-3:30 in the
Deerfield Public Library. We hope you will join us.
Ron Simon

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
/ \ s I began to write my last newsletter column, 1 could not help but reflect over the past thirty/\ \ four years and remember all the issues—collection development, remodeling, money,
/__\ \ sendees, programs, puppet shows, computers, boilers, leaking roofs, long-range plans,
ji
j \ carpets, sewers, ballast resistors, 4th of July lemonade, stalled elevators, leaking pipes,
JL. A freon leaks, and electrical fires—that I have been involved with for all those years. A lot
of tasks not dissimilar from the myth of Sisyphus—working away at the big and little projects every
day for 34 years and realizing that the work is never actually finished but is always a work in progress.
A work we can always improve. It is important to remember that a library is a dynamic organization
and that if it remains static, it fails. An untended library is merely a room full of books, not a function
ing library7—and it will not be a busy place. There are always a hundred and one jobs, repairs, projects,
enhancements, and changes taking place. The Library currently needs more than a few fluffy chairs and
a coat of face paint. As I look forward to retirement in June, I realize that there is a lot more heavy
lumber that needs to get hauled.
The options for the future of the library are not infinite, nor can they be delayed to the time when the
memory of man runneth not to the contrary. They boil down to some simple choices: 1. Remain in this
building as is and replace or repair the infrastructure. This will cost more than several million dollars.
2. Add on to this building. 3. Build a new library on this site. The work of the consultants (space needs
studies, 1000 respondent resident survey, and a handful of other reports that were done in 2002, 2003,
and 2004) amply demonstrated the capital needs of this library, which remain valid today. The options
are not equal, nor do they all really support adequate library service, and my concern is several of them
are too costly for the miniscule return on the investment. Add to this mix District library concerns,
rapidly evolving computer products, the Internet, and you can see the Board of Trustees have a full
plate before them.
What is necessary for those of you who recognize the needs of the Library is to support this Board as
they move forward. Help them reorganize the Friends of the Library, build consensus and spread the
Library message to all the residents. Support for your library is what is needed most as we move to the
future. It is also very important to remember that, through the efforts of Treasurers like Tony Sabato and
Bill Seiden, this Library has always operated within a balanced budget and is the lowest-taxing entity in
the Village—open more hours and serving more residents than any other.
The failure of the Library referendum constrains a logical and normal growth path for the Library,
leaving limited options. The property to the north is no longer available. What will help the Library
most to succeed is community support, resident involvement, and constructive dialogue. It is important
to remember that nothing innovative was ever done without risk and that nothing worthwhile was ever
easy. There is a lot of tree felling and hauling yet to be done. I encourage all of you library users, who
know and use the library7 daily, to step up and help the new director and the Library Board—and I urge
you to be resolute. You know you need a library now more than ever and have told us clearly you want
it in exactly the same location. Services cannot be expanded, or even maintained at present levels,
without substantial capital improvement.
I end my 34 years in Deerfield June 30th. It has been a great run for me personally and professionally.
Libraries have changed more in the past thirty years than in the past three hundred years. Deerfield was
always at the cutting edge of those changes and developments. Personally, I have raised my family in
Deerfield and made many great lifetime friends. I have a lot of plans for the future—travel, volunteer
work, kayaks, motorcycles, and building projects. I am proud to have been Deerfield Library Director
number five and wish my successor, number six, all the best. The Library’s Deputy Director, Sally
Brickman is also retiring from full-time work. Sally has been my partner, the Library’s creative force,
and friend for over twenty years and it is a partnership I treasure. I will miss the Library and our resi
dents more than words can tell; people have always been the joy of my job. Thanks for the memories.

Dedicated to the fullest meeting
of the needs of his community
of library users and fellow
professionals, Jack Hicks is one
of those few masters...visionary,
imaginative, innovative,
effective- Webster’s infinite
list of appropriate adjectives is
insufficient to describe this true
master among us.
Administrative Librarian
to Retire in June
Jack Hicks, Deerfield resident and professional librarian at the
Deerfield Library for 34 years, will retire this June. Prior to his
appointment to Library Director 18 years ago, he was head of
the Reference Department.
It has been a long road of dedicated professional service for
Hicks, whose top priority all these years has been to serve the
Deerfield community by overseeing a library of which Deerfield
residents could be proud. In 1972 the library had a collection of
30,000 books. Today there are 185,000 volumes and a world of new formats and information
technology. Over the years, Hicks remodeled, renovated and managed to make best use of avail
able space so that patrons would enjoy a serviceable and attractive environment. Our remodeled
(in 1995) separate Fiction room is a testament to Hicks’s art and his devotion to books.
With honesty, sensitivity, integrity and creativity, Hicks has brought the library to the national
spotlight as one of the finest and most innovative libraries in the country. As a reference librari
an he left no stone unturned in researching for patrons. Serving the community, he opened the
library for numerous community events, not the least of which was serving 82 gallons of free
lemonade in the library every year for Family Days. In addition to repairing the building and the
computers, constructing a puppet theater and writing its scripts, Hicks provided the first online
information retrieval system in the north suburban area and instructed other communities in its
use. He instituted “librarian in the lobby” one day each month, listened to the community’s
wants and needs and responded to them. He had a vision for a 21st century library for Deerfield,
but unfortunately that failed in the recent referendum. He has always put fiscal responsibility
first, giving taxpayers the most for their tax dollar. Deerfield Library has more books per capita
than any other north suburban library, while remaining the lowest taxing body in the Village.
He is greatly admired by professional colleagues nationwide, board and staff. No question has
been too small, no hours too long, no challenge too tough. Robert R. McClarren, a Deerfield
resident and Director Emeritus of the North Suburban Library System, said, “Dedicated to the
fullest meeting of the needs of his community of library users and fellow professionals, Jack
Hicks is one of those few masters...visionary, imaginative, innovative, effective-Webster’s
infinite list of appropriate adjectives is insufficient to describe this true master among us.”

Starting Time Changes
for Board Meetings

staff will provide written
acknowledgement of gifts if
requested. For details, you may
pick up a copy of the gift policy

Mayor Richard M. Daley Praises Libraries
Mayor Daley recently addressed the American Library Association’s annual conference in
Chicago. He said that in 2005 alone, Chicago had seven libraries under construction and 45
built or renovated in the past 16 years. He credits the taxpayers for allowing him to invest in
libraries in the city and increase taxes for libraries.
Libraries are important to the mayor. He said: “I look at libraries as a learning experience.
They are part of the education system. It was never separate. When I became mayor, I said
This is part and parcel of our educational commitment.’ We need libraries. They are just as
important as building police
stations. We are building fire
stations, senior citizen buildings,
schools and libraries because they
become anchors of a community.
&SG?
When somebody sees a library
being built in their community,
what they see is confidence in the
community. The library becomes
part of our economic develop
ment and that’s the key. All of a
sudden new homes go in. People
Deerfield Nursery School students tour the library
and enjoy listening to a story
say, ‘We’re now invested in the
community...
Google Will Charge for Extra Service

Space StrugglesNew Services
As
librarians in each department are struggling with
space limitations of our current library, we are doing our best to
keep the collection up-to-date and organized, without overflow
ing, and make the best use of space while still providing some
new services in response to user requests.
The new services are
• Language learning ONLINE (for home use only). The
library has added the Rosetta Stone language learning soft
ware to its list of databases. You use this interactive language
learning product from your home computer (you cannot use it
at the library)! learning at your own pace with no tapes or
CDs to return to the library.
Aimed at the traveler, these Rosetta Stone courses include
French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, English (UK) and
English (US). You can use the English course to improve your
skills in your own language. The language immersion method
emphasizes speech and is a fast way to leant a language. You
match an image to a spoken word or phrase.
' Number 2
• More Internet computers...streamlined sign-up...relocation
of library catalogs. Starting in fall, there will be three more
Internet computers (making a total of nine) in the Adult
Reference area better to meet the demand within the available
space. Some library catalogs will be relocated to kiosks more
convenient to the stack areas. The Internet computers in Youth
Services will be dedicated to children and their parents or
caregivers.
A new collection of video games for Playstation 2 and
X-box console systems! Deerfield cardholders will be able to
check out these titles for one week. Some of the new titles
purchased include Halo, Lord of the Rings, Prince of Persia,

adding more titles to keep up with the growing demand for
these titles. Borrowing is limited to 2 per family until the
collection grows. Children under 18 must obtain a parental
permission slip (different from the video permission slip) at
the Circulation Desk for the games.
Go to the library’s website (www.deerfieldlibrary.org) and
click on “Online Databases.” Scroll down and click on
“Rosetta Stone.” You must make up and enter your own
user name and password, then enter the bar code from

�K.LD.D.O.S. Raises Money
for Library
Deerfield’s energetic Sue Vani, mother of two young children and
Lincolnshire first grade teacher, decided that young children need
ed to learn about philanthropy and that even pre-schoolers needed
to find a way to give back to their community. She came up with
the idea of K.LD.D.O.S. (Kids in Deerfield Doing Outstanding
Service). Their first annual event was a very
successful talent, fashion and art show July 21 at Deerfield’s First
Presbyterian Church. Highlights included an Elvis impersonator
(Kevin Mell, age 8) and hula dancers (Molly and Caroline
Nakahara, ages 7 and 3). Kevin Quigley of Cherry Pit fame
volunteered to emcee, and all proceeds from the show (which also
included a raffle, artwork and crafts) were donated for toys for the library’s Youth
Services Department. Vani said about $1000 was raised and already used to pay for a
new train set, dollhouse, puppets, puzzles and more.
Library Board News
At the spring library board of directors meeting,
the officers were re-elected to their posts for
another year. They are President, David Wolff;
Secretary, Ron Simon and Treasurer, Jeff Rivlin.
Other board members include Ken Abosch, Jeff
Blumenthal, Sheryl Lamoureux and Sunday
Mueller. Their phone numbers and e- mail
addresses appear on page four, should you wish
to contact any of them. Each month the trustees
are holding “Librarian in the Lobby” to discuss
library issues informally with the public. Open
library board meetings are held at 8 p.m. the
third Wednesday of each month.
THE MISSION OF THE
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
is to provide our community
with open access to the world
of information and ideas,
encouraging lifelong learning
and personal growth in a
welcoming environment.
Vani’s friends Danielle Pedderson and Marla Callistein helped Vani organize the very
successful event. Their goal this year was to attract children to the library and provide
activity for their younger siblings that would lead to a pleasant library experience. The
library staff is most grateful to Sue, her adult helpers and the children who made it
possible.

In Memoriam
The Library staff was saddened to learn of the
death of John A. Anderson, who served on the
Deerfield Library Board of Trustees for
twenty-four years. Anderson retired from the
board in 2001 when he moved to Wauconda.
He had been a Deerfield resident for thirty-four
years, was first elected to the library board in
1977 and reelected in four subsequent
elections. A multi-faceted man, Anderson was
a strong advocate of freedom of speech, access
by all residents to all forms of information and
of library literacy. He was always a staunch
supporter and friend of our library and we shall
miss him.
