Summer 1991
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
^.ifruvitcui
*De4j6.
Graham Greene died April 3,1991, but as
"LeMonde" said the next day, "Graham
Greene will never die... Greene has always
been a man at the dizzying brink of things
where faith wavers, spies become double
agents, love turns to sadism, and anything
can happen."
No author I can think of wrote encom
passing narrative characterizations like
Greene. His novels were defined by charac
ters and values (or lack of values) rather than
plot. Greene was a master at describing time
and place and drawing the reader straight into
the dark and perverse side of a world where
good and evil are exposed in every character.
No author identified so clearly the underclass
the world - what he termed "the torturable
'ass." No author understood the gulf be
tween rich and poor, powerful and powerless
Greene did. To me his themes were broad and
universal - not confined to, yet focused on,
healing, reconciliation and forgiveness.
Greene penned these ideas in an outline of
reverses: a world of betrayal, powerlessness,
pain, and evil with the only redeeming
dimension in life being the spiritual one. In
The Power and the Glory he presents us with
a novel of persecution and despair, yet it is a
book that completely defines the spiritual
side of man’s nature - regardless of religious
tradition.
Many books hold special moments for us,
and we revisit them to regain those pleasures,
or touch those moments. All readers have
their favorite books - my favorites are almost
all Graham Greene. The books I am recom
mending are: Brighton Rock, The
Comedians, The Heart of the Matter, The
Honorary Consul, Our Man in Havana, The
Power and the Glory, and The Quiet
American. There are so many others I suggest
you browse the shelves and read any and all
of them. I will discuss The Power and the
ory in the library’s fall book discussion.

�Non Resident Card
Fees Increase
Residents of incorporated Deerfield are
entitled to free library cards. Non-residents
who want a Deerfield card may purchase a
^m11 privileges non-resident library card for
^el50. This fee is set by the State and determined by a special formula related to
residents’ lax fees. The non-resident card fee
was formerly $125.00.
The boundaries of service for Deerfield
Library are the same as those of the village
limits - NOT related to U.S. Post office ZIP
codes or West Deerfield Township limits.
With a Deerfield card you can borrow
from any of North Suburban Libraries’
public libraries. (This may not include
videos).
F. Y.l.
Fines... As of May 1, overdue fines
were raised from five to ten cents
per day. A significant line item in
the budget, fines have not been al
tered in 15 years. The increase also
brings fines in line with what neigh
boring libraries charge. Video
overdue fines remain $2.00 a day.
Since others may be waiting for the
materials you have, we appreciate
prompt returns. Reminder: If you
lose or damage library books, there
is a non refundable cost of the item
plus a processing fee of $5.00. Un
returned video: replacement cost,
plus $20 processing fee.
A new brochure, "A Guide to
Library Services" is now at the Cir
culation Desk. This brochure was
made possible by a donation from
the Friends of the Deerfield
Library.
Donations welcome... The Refer
ence Department would appreciate
donations of Consumer Reports
magazines from the last five years.
Due to heavy use, the library’s
copies deteriorate quickly.
With the cost of books spiraling,
(average costs: nonfiction, $40 and
fiction, $25) the library appreciates
book donations, including paper
backs, in good condition. The
Townley Club of Deerfield
generously donated $250 to
replenish the library’s classics. We
also thank those who have donated
books, magazines and annual
reports.
Exhibits at the entrance to the
library are changed monthly. We
welcome your collections of inter
est, with artifacts, if they relate to
library books.________________

Wednesday, March 13, 7:30 p.m. Per^feonal finance dynamo and Emmy Award
^^Vinning journalist, Terry Savage keynotes
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
Options Exchange and registered invest
ment advisor, she is Financial Analyst on
WBBM-TV Ch. 2 evening news and her
"Money Talks" program leads in to "CBS
This Morning".
Tuesday, April 16, 7:30 p.m. "The
Mystery of the Living Writer" is our gift to
you for National Library Week. We wel
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.
