Message from the Dii’ector
Building project update
As this newsletter goes to
print, we continue to
evaluate possible sites for
our temporary location,
including creating
preliminary floor plans to
test for suitability, and
exploring lease rates and conditions. Once
the final location is agreed upon and the
lease signed, we will make only the minimal
changes necessary to meet building codes
and make the spaces usable for our
purposes. Nothing fancy! We will also obtain
a special use permit from the Village to
operate the site as a temporary Library.
*r*»;*'m
LAV
Our move from the current building to an
interim site is planned for late spring. Some
meeting room functions and programs will
be curtailed around mid-December, as we
begin packing and preparing for the move.
Be assured that as soon as we know where
we’re going to be, we’ll let the community
know all the details, including—
importantly—how we will continue to
provide great service.
We’re also moving forward with the
renovation of the current Library, including
making final design decisions for the
interior, selecting the color palette with
floor and wall finishes, and creating
construction drawings for the project. We
have selected Mortenson as the
Construction Management firm.
You can follow our progress on our website
and Facebook, or by attending our board
meetings. Please see our website for dates,
times, locations, and prior board meeting
minutes, too.

E-book Collection E-xpands
The demand for e-books is skyrocketing, and we are making
a^ustments to better serve you. For example, we are
dedicating more dollars to extra copies of titles for which
there are long waiting lists, and ONLY Deerfield cardholders
will be eligible for those added copies. This will lessen the
time our patrons spend waiting for a popular e-book. We will
also temporarily adjust our materials budget while we are in
the small temporary space to purchase additional e-books to
meet demand.

Book Discussions
((l LOVED this book!”
December 8,10:30 a.m.
What better way to end the year than by discussing our faves—the books
we read this year that we loved, that we couldn’t put down, the books that
we told our family and friends that they HAD to read? Please come
prepared to talk about the book—or books—that you loved.
Looking ahead, the Library’s book discussions will be taking a hiatus this
winter as we prepare for our move to the temporary location. Please watch
for information about the dates and locations when the book discussions
resume in the spring. If you are interested in participating in an online
book discussion, please contact Melissa at reference@deerfieldlibrary.org.
Ask Us via Text or Instant Message
You can now contact the reference desk via text and instant message (IM), in
addition to phone or email. Text and IM are perfect for resolving quick factoid
spats like who was Harry Truman’s vice president, what was the name of that
book about the circus magicians or answering that last minute question before
book club. Send an instant message straight from our home page or text us at
847-790-4TXT (4898). We look forward to hearing from you—no matter how you
get in touch!
Want the First Season of Bones? Get it All-in-One!
Have you ever looked for the latest season of your favorite show only to find that
disc one was checked out? This fall we started packaging television seasons
together rather than splitting discs into individual cases for checkout, so you
won’t miss an episode! As always, we welcome your feedback about this and any
other changes here at the Library.
Meeting Room News
Our busy meeting rooms are going to be put to a different use while we gear up
for the move to the interim site. Because both the large meeting room and the
lower level conference room need to be dedicated to staging, sorting, and
storage of moving materials, we have reluctantly decided that we won’t be able
to take reservations for meetings held after December 15th.
Our apologies to all the homeowners associations, non-profit, civic and
educational groups, boy scouts, girl scouts and more that keep our meeting
rooms hopping. We’ll look forward to seeing you back in our newly refurbished
meeting space in 2013!

researcher Bill Kiddle, and see what everyday life
was like and how dramatically it would change

reached Deerfield from and about their loved
ones? Join us for an hour that will make this
150th anniversary year local and personal. A
partner program of the Library and the Deerfield
Area Historical Society. □
Who Knows What Evil Lurks
in the Hearts of Men???
If you already know the answer to
that question—or if you want to—
check out the Radio Classics
available as e-audiobooks at the
Library. It’s easy:
1. Go to the Library’s home page
and type in Radio Classics in the Search field.
2. In the Format box on the left side of the page,
click on e-audiobooks.
3. When you make your selection, click on the
information located to the right of the first
arrow underneath the title. It will take you to
My Media mall where you can start
downloading to your computer or other device.
If you need help downloading, stop by the
Reference or Multimedia Desks for help!
�Go Beyond Google
• • •
Sometimes, you just need more information—or you need to be sure that the
information you're getting is accurate, current and reliable—than the
results of an “I’m feeling lucky” Google search. Here are two true stories
featuring websites recommended by ourfully-qualified research
professionals, also known as Reference Libranans!
MedlinePlus
Recently, I had a patron ask for information on diabetes. The patron was just diagnosed
and looking for reliable information but without all the medical jargon. In addition to our
books (located in non-fiction, call #616.462), I introduced the patron to my favorite go-to
place for medical information, medlineplus.gov. I love this site for several reasons. First,
it is specifically written for patients, their families, and friends creating one of the most
easily understood medical information sites out there. Second, it is produced by the
National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health making it one of
the most reliable places to obtain information about diseases, conditions, and other
medical issues.
MedlinePlus has three very helpful sections, “Health Topics”, “Drugs & Supplements” and
“Videos and Cool Tools”. “Health Topics” is like an encyclopedia and provides an overview
of the topic including symptoms, treatments, prevention and much more. The “Drugs &
Supplements” section answers questions about why a medication would be prescribed and
how it should be used. The “Video and Cool Tools” portion offers interactive tutorials and
videos regarding specific topics. After reviewing these segments, the patron was thrilled
with the information we discovered! This resource provided the patron with an easy to
understand explanation of diabetes without dumbing down the information. As a bonus,
the patron felt much more confident about what questions to ask the doctor during the
next visit.
CNET
AARP Tax-Aide Moves to
the Patty Turner Center
AARP Tax-Aide—a free tax help
service the Library has hosted for
many years—will relocate to the
Patty Turner Center as the Library
begins its own relocation to an
interim site. Starting February 3,
IRS certified volunteers for the
AARP will be on hand every
Tuesday and Friday through
April 13 from 1-4 p.m. at the
Patty Turner Center, 375 Elm
Street, 847-9404010. You don’t
need to be an older adult, a member
of the AARP, or the Patty Turner
Center to receive assistance. Please
bring copies of last year’s returns
and all tax forms you receive (W-2s,
1099s, etc.). Please call the Patty
Turner at 847-9404010 starting
Monday, January 30, to make
an appointment.
A patron needed some help choosing a tablet computer. She was going on vacation and
needed something that would allow her to watch a movie on the plane, check her e-mail,
and read an e-book, and it still had to fit in her bag. After taking a look at Consumer
Reports online (available free to Deerfield cardholders on the Library’s website), I
introduced her to CNET.com, a website known for its technology reviews and how-tos. She
watched videos of tablet shopping tips and reviews, compared web speed and battery life
of different models, and read thoughtful reviews from CNET editors. She was able to
search through the list of tablets by price range, manufacturer, screen size, and more. She
found two that she really liked and she was going to see what they looked like in person at
the store. She was a happy camper!
CNET is a great way to stay up-to-date with technology. They review everything from cell
phones to GPS systems to digital cameras. Their video reviews are especially informative,
since they spend time going over the whole device, showing off all the buttons and
demonstrating how it actually works. They also offer a lot of information and advice on
what to purchase and how to use it in your daily life. It’s an interactive website with
videos, podcasts, and more traditional articles. They invite readers to post comments and
suggestions, so there’s plenty of real-world feedback as well. The website can seem a little
busy, with all of the different information they’re sharing, but they do make it easy to
search by category or by reviews, videos, and how-tos. I would definitely recommend this
website to anyone interested in up-to-date tech reviews and information, and especially
for people who get more from watching reviews than reading them.
Toys for Tots
Drop off new, unwrapped toys in the
Toys for Tots collection box in the
Library lobby now through
December 15th. This annual drive,
sponsored by the U.S. Marine Corps
Reserve, has been putting smiles on
the faces of needy youngsters for
over 60 years.. .be a part of it!
Hint: Books make GREAT giftsfor
kids of any age!

�Library Improvement
Plan FAQ
Q: How are “green” practices and
energy-saving features being
incorporated into the Library
Improvement Project?
The Library—staff and Trustees—and
the professionals at PSA Dewberry, are
all committed to making the renovated
building as green as possible. Here’s a
list of items already incorporated in
the plan:
• We will monitor construction
activities for possible pollution in
and around the site.
• Additional green spaces will be
added to the parking lot.
• Many native and drought tolerant
plants will be used in landscaping.
• There will be secure bike racks near
the building to encourage
fewer cars.
• To reduce heat-island effect the roof
has a high solar-reflectance index.
• The interior lighting will be light
harvesting and occupant-sensing.
• Restroom fixtures will be low-flow.
• We will allocate space for increased
recycling.
• Where possible, building products
and finishes will incorporate
recycled materials.
• Where appropriate, building
materials and products will come
from within 500 miles of the site.
• Adhesives, sealants, primers, paints,
etc. will be low in volatile organic
compounds.
• Where possible, flooring and
furnishings will be low-emitting as
well.
• The design team includes LEED
professionals in architecture,
engineering, and interior design.

Message from
the Director
' JTf-, " ^
We deeply appreciate the t
feedback from the
community as the Library
Board seeks input about
the possible building improvement
project. The March series of Public Open
Houses, the April/May telephone survey,
and the Citizen Input Group have all
contributed to our understanding of the
perspectives, concerns, and suggestions
about the future of the Library in
our village.
What’s next? The Library Board will
review the feedback from the Open
Houses, telephone survey, and Citizen
Input Group. Based on these and other
resources, the Library Board will select
one of the original four options and begin
to develop it further. They will determine
a preferred course of action, and share it
with the Village Board. Then, the
preferred option will be shared with the
community through the second series of
Public Open Houses. Once again, public
feedback will be collected and reviewed
with the Citizen Input Group. By late
summer, the Library Board will
determine whether to proceed with a
possible referendum.
Want to learn more? Have an opinion to
share? The Library Board will continue to
invite participation through the next
series of Public Open Houses. (See
“Planning for the Future” for dates and
times of the sessions.) Take a behind-thescenes tour. Learn about the issues.
Compare us to other libraries. Consider
the costs. To contact a Board member,
call or email them using the contact
information provided on the back cover
of the newsletter, or the Library website.

Planning for the Future
The Library Board is committed to keeping Deerfield residents informed about,
and involved in, the future of the Library. Based upon feedback from the March
series of Public Open Houses and the telephone survey conducted in April, the
Library Board will select one of the four building improvement options presented
and ask the architects and financial consultant to develop it further. During the
next series of Public Open Houses, the selected option will be presented in more
detail and additional public feedback will be sought. Each event in the series
will follow the same agenda, offering residents a variety of convenient times to
attend. One-hour Open Houses will be held Saturday, June 26 at 3 p.m. and
Tuesday, June 29 at 7 p.m.
Results of March Public Open Houses
Five Public Open Houses were held in March to familiarize Deerfield residents
with the Library building history and needs, additional expressed needs of the
community, four possible building improvement options, and the costs projected
for each option—including possible effects on a resident’s real estate taxes.
About 42 members of the general public attended the sessions, and 30 completed
feedback forms. In addition, members of the Citizen Input Group assisted the
Board in evaluating the community feedback and provided their own perspectives
at a special Board meeting held April 24. Of the four options presented, 35%
preferred Option 3—Remodel and Expand, while 60% selected Option 4—Build a
New Library. The remaining 5% chose Option 1 or Option 2 which provide for
changes necessary to meet code, and limited other improvements.
The Library Board continues to receive valuable input from the Citizen Input Group.
Members are: Christine Barr, John Bartok, Cookie Center, Lorraine Clark, Lisa
Crist, Betsy Eisenhauer, Luisa Ellenbogen, Brooke Fogt, Mark Fox, Mike Gruenhut,
Laurie Leibowitz, Rick Lynn, Nancy O’Neill, Jean Reuther, Bob Rosenbacher, Judy
Smith, Amy Thale, Jane Weinstein-Jacobson and Bruce Zimmerman.
Results of Telephone Survey
The Library Board hired the Northern Illinois University (NIU) Public Opinion
Laboratory to conduct a telephone survey of 400 residents of Deerfield. Phone
numbers were chosen at random from those assigned to the Deerfield area—they
were not provided by the Library, nor did NIU have any access to the Library’s
patron database. The survey was developed by NIU with Libraiy input. Results
will appear on the Library's web site. The Library Board will use the findings,
combined with feedback from the Open Houses and other sources, to make a
decision about which building option to pursue, if any.
Updates on the surveys, reports, and Board actions are available at
http://www.deerfieldlibrary.org/deeifield/planning.asp.

�New improvements to Selection and Service
LINKin
You can now search and request an additional 1.8 million items from our
partner libraries in the LINKin network with your Deerfield Public Library
card. LINKin connects the library catalogs of Deerfield Public Library,
Arlington Heights Memorial Library, Cook Memorial Library, Gail Borden Public
Library, and Skokie Public Library. If an item is not available for checkout at
Deerfield Public Library and is available at one of the partner libraries, the
item will be sent to Deerfield Public Library within three or four days. Patrons
will be notified by phone or email when the item is ready for pickup.
On-Shelf Holds
Deerfield Public Library cardholders may now request “on-shelf’ items through
the Library’s online catalog. When a request is placed, Library staff will retrieve
the item from the shelf within 24 hours (excluding Sundays) and put it on the
new self-service holdshelf for the patron to pick up within 5 days. Due to their
high demand, the Library cannot pull DVDs, videos, or video games.
Self-Service Holdshelf
All holds (LINKin books coming from other libraries, on-shelf holds,
Interlibrary Loan items, and regular holds) are now kept on the self-service
holdshelf to the east of the Circulation desk, by the elevator. Items are arranged
alphabetically by patron last name. These books are not checked out to the
patron and still need to be brought to the Circulation desk for check out.
Enotification Contest
All Deerfield cardholders who have signed up for enotification by Saturday, June 19,
will be entered in a drawing for free Ravinia lawn passes. Enotification allows you to
receive notices about holds and overdue items via email rather than by phone. Visit
the Library’s online catalog and log in to your account, click on the “Modify Personal
Info” button and enter your email address. Need help? Stop by any service desk for
assistance.

New Look for Library
Web Site
According to a new study, Americans spend an average of 32.7
hours a week online. That’s why we’ve redesigned the
Libraiy’s ‘Virtual branch.” It’s now easier than ever for you to
use Library resources when you’re online. The new web site
features an updated calendar of Library events; recommended
web sites for adults, teens, and children; lists of bestsellers
and award-winners that take you directly into the Library’s
catalog; and online forms for asking a librarian a question.

�Message from the
Director
You’ve spoken,
and we’ve lis
tened and made
changes. If
there is a
theme to this
newsletter
issue, that is it!
Many of you have expressed frus
tration in the past over our fee
structures, limits on materials, and
renewal limits. Well, we have
dropped some of these and loos
ened up others (although they
aren’t all gone!) The goal is to give
you more of what you want and less
of what you don’t want. Read about
these changes on the front page.
We have also launched a new web
site, designed to help you find what
you are seeking more easily. We’ve
added many new features, and
more are yet to come. We hope
you’ll agree that this is a big
improvement!
During the summer months, watch
for some colorful, comfortable new
additions to the furnishings in the
Youth Services department. A few
similar touches may appear in
other departments, as well.
Although we are planning substan
tial interior improvements for the
future, we realize that a few
updates will brighten the Library
and make coming here more enjoy
able. We want to help build antici
pation for the other positive
changes to come!

In the early 1990s, the Simon family began
a memorial fund for the Library, in honor
of their daughter Amy Simon. The funds
were used primarily for certain types of
children’s books and to promote reading
for children. The fund grew over the years
as other family members contributed.
Although the fund was terminated in 2006
many children’s books continued to
receive the memorial nameplate. Today,
there are dozens of these titles. To show
appreciation for the Simon family’s gen
erosity through the years, the Youth
Services department recently created a
special display of some of the Simon Fund
memorial books, which are available for
check-out. The display, updated regularly,
will run through May 2008.
