BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield. IL 60015
Winter 1989
Vol. 4. No. 1
Welcome!
New Head Of Reference
I would like to take this opportunity, my
first column as library director, to give a
heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of people
who took time to speak, call, or write to
congratulate me on my promotion. After
so many years of public service in what I
thought was anonymity, your response has
been overwhelming to me. It is so seldom
that librarians get the praise and recogni
tion you have extended. This promotion is
now more than just a promotion, rather
something very personal and rewarding to
me.
Thank you all, so very much, for your
kindness.
My goals for the next three years are re
latively simple ones: Collection develop
ment to more closely match your needs
|nd desires, staff training to insure a conrinued high level of service, and a program
of public relations to make sure all of you
are aware of all of our materials, prog
rams, and service.
We have engaged a nationally known
library planner to help us regain some of
the charm our library has lost with the ad
dition of all the new technology, mate
rials, and books. We are as concerned as
you are about our library’s future.
( /
Jack Alan Hicks
Administrative Librarian
Tax Time
The Deerfield Library will be a
site for Volunteer Income Tax As
sistance this winter. There is no
charge for the service co-sponsored
by the IRS and the American As
sociation of Retired Persons. No ap
pointment is necessary for the ser
vice available in the upstairs meet
ing room, Tuesdays and Fridays
from l-4p.m. February 3 - April 14.
Please bring last year’s return.
Income tax forms are available at
the reference desk, but librarians are
not qualified to offer lax assistance.
Peggy McCabe at the Bibliofile Catalog
Bibliofile Catalog Has
Personal Touch
Deerfield now has additional computer
catalogs, the ‘‘Friendly Biblioftles
which personify technology; they are be
coming popular with users.
The library’s old card catalogs went on
line, on computer, two years ago. The old
card catalog files were gradually phased
out and removed from public service areas
in December, 1988. Deerfield Library
shares the online system, the Joint Compu
ter Program for Libraries (JCPL) with
Skokie, Morton Grove and Waukegan.
JCPL, headquartered at the Skokie Lib
rary, runs a GEAC Computer Corp. 8000
system.
Presently the three Bibliofile CD-ROM
catalog workstations are located in Refer
ence and Young People’s Departments.
Bibliofile contains the same author, title,
and subject information found in the lib
rary’s JCPL GEAC online catalog. Dub
bed “The Intelligent Catalog” it is faster,
smarter, easier to understand, prints off
line at no charge and can talk and offer
friendly instruction! Best of all, the Bibliofile, a “home grown product” is free
standing (no telephone lines) and if the lib
rary’s other computers linked to the JCPL
Skokie office are down, the Bibliofile still
works as a back-up!
Bibliofile operates on a CD-ROM drive
controlled by a hard disk which gives it a
higher level of access programming. It
does not have the Circulation capacity that
the other computers have; it gives a book’s
location, but not whether it is in the library
or on loan. It is programmed and derived
from our regular catalog database, how
ever.
The Bibliofile stand alone system does
clarify searching on online catalogs. Try
it, you'll like it!
Judith Hortin has been appointed Head
of Reference at Deerfield Public Library.
This position was formerly held by Jack
Hicks who is now library director.
With five years experience as head of
reference in public libraries in Manhattan,
Kansas and Joliet, Illinois, Judy returns to
her native Chicago. She has also worked in
special libraries in Manhattan and Chicago
and was in System Reference at Bur Oak
Library System. Before becoming a libra
rian, she was a teacher for the Chicago
Public Schools.
Now a Mt. Prospect resident, Judy said,
“I have always cared about public lib
raries and providing information. It’s hard
to fill Jack’s shoes as I have always re
spected his work. I am looking forward to
meeting and working with the Deerfield
community.”
Judy holds a BA in English from the
University of Wisconsin and a Masters in
Library Science from Rosary College. She
enjoys reading and, regarding other per
sonal information, tells us she is a direct
descendent of Benedict Arnold!

Credits Librarians
The Deerfield Library recently received
the book, “The Reverse Effect: How Vita
mins and Minerals Promote Health and
Cause Disease’’, a 1,200 page volume
written by Walter Heiby, who is probably
Deerfield’s most active library user.
In his book, Heiby credits the Deerfield
reference librarians with finding many of
the world-record number of references
(4821) that support the facts and theories
of his highly praised and controversial
book.
Heiby, who has published poems and a
philosophy book, considers himself a
generalist whose intellectual curiosity was
whetted by his parents. Currently, he conducts literature research seminars in nutri-^^
tion, medicine and dentistry at the Univer-^^
sity of Illinois under the auspices of the
Glencoe based Nutrition for Optimal
Health Assn.

"The pen is mightier than the sword.
Can you identify these three famous
quotations ? Not only will Bartlett’s Famil

William Shakespeare, John Donne, and
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, but it will also
give an exact source right down to act,

Students, writers, speakers - at some
point almost everyone has to track down
an elusive quotation, and Bartlett’s is a
good starting point for such a search. Even
if you recall only a few words of a famous
line, its handy keyword index lets you
identify a source and verify the exact
wording. The main part of the book is ar
ranged by author or source quoted.

Keep VCR Clean
The Deefield Library now owns approx
imately 1500 video tapes for home view
ing (at $1 each for three days). To assure
their best use, it is important to remember
to keep the VCR equipment free from dirt
and other materials which “eat” the tape
or rpnder the picture snowy, the music
muddy. The library’s Technical Services^^
department suggests preventative mea-^B
sures, such as frequent cleaning of video^^
heads (at the heart of the machine) to re
move harmful dirt from oxide particle
buildup. This will keep the library’s tapes
in good order for your viewing enjoyment.
