Ms. Wener to consider acting as one of the Board liaisons.

profit. The revenues for the Friends and the Library cannot be comingled.

funding since the State was reducing the Village's revenues. Mr. Seiden explained that the Library's revenue
source, the property tax levy, is a separate source that is not affected by Village actions.
8.
LIBRARY DIRECTOR REPORT
a. Highlights from Director's written report
Ms. Pergander shared the following highlights: This is my last monthly report for the Board. I have greatly
appreciated the opportunity to serve this community, and I appreciate all the support I have received from
the Board. All the staff members appreciated the treats provided by the board for National Library Week.
The chairs in Youth Services were replaced by the manufacturer due to fabric flaws resulting in premature
wear and splitting. Claire Steiner, Ellen Kaiser, along with other managers and staff members, successfully
combined the lower level service desks, and also created a new seating area using furnishings already in the
building. Tony Keaton and Meg Anthony are prepared for the two day electrical work, and Judy Hoffman and
others are creating an information campaign to alert the public. We have contracted for two large flower
pots for the outer front entrance, which the landscapers will fill three times seasonally per year. Members of
the management team are pitching in to support Meg as Interim, with certain redundancies of training
helping assure a smooth transition and adequate coverage of key responsibilities. Trisha Steele helped
arrange for free chair massages for staff members to celebrate National Library Week. The Park District,
Village, and Library are continuing talks to improve coordination of health care plans. There are only minor
changes in charges at this time, pending more information late fall. The audit is nearing completion. There
were 59 reservations for the large meeting rooms last month. Ellen Kaiser of Patron services received $355
of materials returned after she sent personal reminder letters last month. Six Assistants are attending
Reaching Forward. Sayaka Suzuki staffed a recruiting table at the jobs fair at Trinity University. All current
Pages were promoted to Library Aide. The Support Services department is cleaning about 30 discs per day.
Pam Skittino also oversaw the addition of Picture Books, Adult Nonfiction, and Adult Fiction as new catalog
options. We had our highest circulation ever in 2014 at 485,518. Also, Youth programming attendance has
increased from 4,761 to 13,500 in two years, while Adult similarly increased from 808 to 3201 in the same
period.
b. Thank You from staff for the wonderful staff appreciation treats
See above.
c. Loss of DVDs and Blu-rays, and action taken
In addition to the addition of the security camera mentioned above, we are reporting the losses to police,
and are taking other steps to secure the collection.

Regular Meeting Minutes

d. Server room HVAC issues
We have had very serious humidity issues in the Library and the server room, with humidity reaching over
80%. The Engineer who designed the system has been contacted and is checking the entire system design
e.
f.
g-
for areas needing attention.
Social media and staff Intranet update
There is significantly increased activity on our social media reach and engagement in just the past few weeks
after the arrival of our new Digital Media Coordinator. We are adding one security camera to the Media area
while evaluating other future additions. Tom Owen conducted a staff survey about proposed Intranet
improvements, and he is targeting the top requests by staff for the first rounds of improvements.
Update - Zingerman's customer service training half-day for staff
Ms. Pergander reviewed the nine-month history of the move to incorporate Zingerman's principles, initially
introduced by Ellen Kaiser. In April, the Library staff attended a half day session led by a Zingerman's trainer.
It was very well received by staff.
Update - GIVING button for donations, and related donation information
The proposed GIVING button has been implemented, and the button leads to a page offering the
opportunity to donate to the Friends or the Library.
Mr. Abosch asked about the uses of surveillance cameras in the Library where thefts have occurred, how they
will help when patrons can move materials anywhere in the Library, and whether there would be signage. Ms.
Pergander confirmed that signage is already posted. There was some discussion regarding other actions the
Library might take to address the loss of materials, including checking Amazon for the sale of similar items but
with missing cases, moving the collections, and increasing supervision in the areas of theft.
9.
OLD BUSINESS
a. Approval of Library Director lump sum performance-based salary adjustment
Mr. Simon said that the Board had discussed the suggested lump sum performance-based salary
adjustment previously in a closed session. He explained the timing of the annual salary adjustments and
the purpose of the proposed payment.
MOTION: Mr. Schriftman made a motion to approve the lump sum performance-based salary adjustment of
$800 to the Library Director, seconded by Mr. Abosch
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Howard Handler, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, Ron Simon, and
Maureen Wener. The motion was approved.
b.
Recommendation to not release to the public closed minutes reviewed at the April 15 closed meeting
session
The process for releasing closed minutes was discussed. Mr. Abosch noted that a review and
reconsideration of all closed minutes is required every six months and that action must be taken only in
open session. Ms. Pergander said that the closed minutes are retained on tape, as well as in written form.
Mr. Howard Handler asked how old the closed minutes are. It was explained that some are from the mid2000's. Those that have to do with particularly sensitive personnel or lawsuit issues have been kept closed.
Mr. Simon reviewed the advice given by legal counsel, and noted that closed minutes can be opened in the
future if the Board members choose to take that action.
MOTION: Mr. Goldberg made a motion to not release to the public the closed minutes reviewed at the April 15
closed meeting session, seconded by Mr. Schriftman
Vote: 5 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, and Ron Simon.
2 abstained - Howard Handler, and Maureen Wener. The motion was approved.

d.
Update - Replacement of main electrical switch and Library closure on June 2 and 3
This item was covered under the Director's Report.
Farmer's Market dates (Aug. 1, Sept. 26) and assignments for Board members
Mr. Simon reviewed what usually occurs at the Village of Deerfield Farmers' Market. He said that the
primary purpose is to see the public, answer questions, and to collect input and suggestions. He explained
that staff set up the table and materials, and Board members usually man the booth between 9:00 a.m. to
noon. There are typically two Board members for each date, although more members are welcomed.
Ms. Pergander noted that staff covers two other Farmers' Market dates and representatives from the
Friends group are present on other dates too.
Ms. Reuther & Mr. Abosch volunteered to man the booth on August 1st. Ms. Wener said that she is available
for both dates. Mr. Handler and Mr. Schriftman volunteered to cover the booth on September 26th.
10. NEW BUSINESS
a. Recommendation to hire new Library Director
Mr. Simon explained the director search process and thanked Mr. Abosch for his leadership on the search
committee.
Mr. Abosch reviewed the offer letter provided and said that it had been accepted. He then reviewed some
of the experience that Ms. Amy Falasz-Peterson has as a Director, including a referendum and a
collaborative building project.
Ms. Wener asked why Ms. Falasz-Peterson is changing jobs. Mr. Abosch explained that, although she really
enjoys her current position, she is originally from this area; also there is a higher usage of the library in
Deerfield and there are other challenges and opportunities here. Mr. Simon added that Ms. FalaszPeterson was not looking for a new position when the consultant contacted her.
Mr. Abosch reviewed the basic structure of offer, including the annual salary and wage per pay period,
establishing goals, the performance-based bonus target and maximum, the Board's performance review,
and a signing bonus that can be used to assist with relocation expenses and previously established vacation
plans. He stated that other aspects of the offer are all in accordance with the Library's established
employment practices and personnel policies.
MOTION: Mr. Goldberg made a motion to approve hiring Ms. Amy Falasz-Peterson, in accordance with the
package as presented by Mr. Abosch, seconded by Mr. Schriftman
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Howard Handler, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, Ron Simon, and
Maureen Wener. The motion was approved.
Mr. Handler asked about the process for giving notice to the public regarding the new director. Mr. Simon
outlined the planned press releases and described the other notifications to peers.
b.
Discussion of and possible change to vacation accrual schedule/policy
It was decided that this topic does not need to be modified; it was not discussed.

Mr. Simon described the process for choosing an Interim Director and the responsibilities that person will
handle. He recommended that Ms. Meg Anthony, the current Head of Youth Services, be approved as the
Interim Director.
MOTION: Mr. Goldberg made a motion to approve hiring Ms. Meg Anthony as the Interim Director, seconded
by Ms. Jean Reuther.
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Howard Handler, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, Ron Simon, and
Maureen Wener. The motion was approved.

Scheduling of Board Orientation Session - Financials
Mr. Schriftman discussed the financial review processes and board responsibilities. He encouraged all
Board members to attend. He said the session is typically a Saturday morning, between 9:30 and 11:30
a.m. Ms. Trisha Steele, Business Manager, will coordinate the date and time of the upcoming session.
f.
Banned patron review and recommendation regarding privileges
Mr. Simon reviewed the process used for banning a patron, and he also reviewed the communication
provided for a particular case. There was discussion about particular behavior that involved children, which
came to light after the original communications were made, and whether the banning process needed to
be renewed. Ms. Reuther asked Ms. Anthony, Head of Youth Services, for her input. Ms. Anthony
discussed the rise in unattended children, which makes the described behavior more troubling.
Mr. Goldberg pointed out that a ban communicates how seriously the Board takes certain behavior. He
noted that the Board needs to recognize that the patron in this case provided an immediate response, with
an apology and recognition of his actions. Mr. Goldberg asked the Board members what other specific
thing would need to happen to make a difference at a later time.
Safety concerns and the difficulty of the decision process were discussed, including how to weigh the rights
of patrons, staff, and children. Also discussed were the length of a ban, past legal advice, the reviewing
process, and the availability of information from other sources, such as the local police. The current
transition at the library and its impact on the situation was discussed. Various alternatives were aired.
MOTION: Mr. Simon made a motion to establish a three-month ban, to be lifted on September 1st, based on the
inappropriate behavior in the Quiet Room; and, that the patron be notified of the other incidents reported; the
motion was seconded by Ms. Wener.
Vote: 6 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, Ron Simon, and Maureen Wener.
1 no - Howard Handler. The motion was approved.

Recommendation to approve furnishings quote for Youth Services workstations, and discuss
plans for Support Services
Ms. Anthony reviewed the proposed changes to the Youth work area. She explained the department's
staffing plan, described the process for sharing desks, and the consequences to productivity.
MOTION: Mr. Goldberg made a motion to approve the recommended furnishing changes to the Youth
Department, at a cost not to exceed $4,000. Mr. Schriftman provided a second to the motion.
Vote: 7 yes - Ken Abosch, Michael Goldberg, Howard Handler, Jean Reuther, Seth Schriftman, Ron Simon, and
Maureen Wener. The motion was approved.
h.
Update from Memorials Committee
Mr. Simon asked that this item be added to the next Board meeting's agenda. He reviewed the mission of
committee, and the need for an improved and formal policy, noting that a case-by-case basis is not
sufficient.
Processes were discussed, including how research is conducted, the involvement of staff, and the Board's
engagement. Mr. Simon said he would like to have a committee meeting scheduled with all Board
members invited.
i.
REMINDER - Art Festival Preview Party, May 29, 6 to 8 pm, Village Hall
Ms. Pergander reviewed the Art Festival Preview Party, explaining that it is an opportunity to network with
the other Village movers and shakers. Mr. Abosch noted that spouses can be included but that attendance
does require an RSVP.
11. OTHER DISCUSSION ITEMS
a.
Mr. Schriftman asked about the protocol for Board member email addresses, noting that one member has
an email address at deerfieldlibrary.org. Mr. Handler said that using this email address will help to avoid
FOIA request complications, but Ms. Pergander explained that a FOIA request could be placed for all Board
member emails regardless of the email address. Ms. Wener said providing board email addresses
@deerfieldlibrary.org seems like a good idea and it was suggested that the idea be placed on next
meeting's agenda.
b.
Mr. Abosch inquired how closed session minutes can be approved without releasing them. Ms. Pergander
said that the minute dates can be placed on the next agenda.
12. EXECUTIVE SESSION
No executive session held.
13. ADJOURNMENT
At 10:36, there being no further business, Mr. Goldberg made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Mr.
Schriftman. The motion was approved and the meeting was adjourned.

Page 1 of 6
�Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
Regular Meeting Minutes
March 18, 2015
was to rebuild the Reserves to about $2 million, in anticipation of future and ongoing capital improvement
needs. Mr. Rivlin also reviewed the ladder investment plan for the Reserve Fund monies at PMA.
Mr. Rivlin explained the suggested modifications to the Investment Policy. The Committee recommends
that the Board modify the policy language to better reflect the Library's investment practices, which are
more conservative than what the current policy allows.
He reviewed the Committee's discussion about
collateral. He explained that if a collateral holding drops below A quality, it must be replaced and clarified
that the A range includes A- as well as A+.
[Item 9-b was discussed here.] Mr. Simon reviewed the approval process for Board policies, noting that the
Finance Committee had already reviewed and recommends the modified wording for the Investment Policy.
c.
Recommendation to transfer $991,000 from the General Fund to the Reserve Fund
Mr. Rivlin said that the Finance Committee recommends a transfer of $991,000 from the General Fund to

item 8.f.)
Ms. Pergander reviewed the current process.
After some discussion, it was decided that when there is a special committee related to the policy topic,
such as the Finance Committee and the Investment Policy, then that committee should review the policy
first. Some policies do not relate to another particular Board Committee and those should go directly to the
Policy Committee.
MOTION: Mr. Schriftman made a motion to approve the Finance Committee recommendations, which are to:
Approve the proposed change to routing of policies.
Adopt the proposed modifications to the Investment Policy which will result in a more conservative
investment policy, and
Transfer $991,000 from the General Fund to the Reserve Fund for the purpose of rebuilding the Reserve
Fund.
Seconded by Jeff Rivlin.
Vote: 6 yes - Ken Abosch, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman, and Ron Simon. The
motion was approved.

market. Ms. Carbine said that the Friends have $12,000 in reserves at this time, pledged to the Library. The
variety of books in the Friends' book area was discussed.

LIBRARY DIRECTOR REPORT
The Library Director, Ms. Mary Pergander, provided the following information:
a. Highlights from Director's written report
At the Library Board's request, in lieu of Goals 2015, Ms. Pergander created a list of recommended Next
Steps for the Board and new Director to consider for future efforts. Hoopla was successfully launched and
has been so popular that we will need to limit patron downloads. We are discussing implementing
NovelistSelect at the check-out stations, to further enhance the patron experience. Ms. Pergander recently
served as one of the editors for the Illinois State Library's new edition of Administrative Ready Reference, a
handy resource for Library staff and Boards. Eleven personalized collection letters were mailed in February,
and as a result $866 of materials were returned to the Library. Ms. Pergander reviewed the list of Current
Building and Furnishings Projects. Many of the projects are very low cost or covered by insurance. Two
others could cost $5 to $10 thousand dollars. There are over 18,000 uses of library cards by patrons every
month! The 2015 Blind Date with a book was a big hit with patrons. Over 90 books were selected, and 64%
of patrons liked their blind date book.
b. Director's Annual Report At the Board's request, instead of the complete annual summary often created at this time, a condensed
version featuring the highlights of the Library's accomplishments was shared with Board members.
c. Progress report on Policy Review 2015
The management team has a goal of having all Library policies reviewed and approved prior to the arrival of
the new Director. Even those without recommended changes or revised last year are being updated as
Policies 2015 for clarity and completeness. The process is proceeding smoothly, especially with the
suggested change to the Board-level review process.
d. Recommendation to create Pre-school Coordinator position in Youth services, within existing FTEs
The Board received an excellent report reviewing Preschool Outreach, created by Youth Associate Kary
Henry. Preschool Outreach, like School Liaison, and Teen Librarian, is a specific and highly active focus of
our Youth Department, and an expectation of our community. To better provide the focus needed,
management recommends the creation of Preschool Coordinator position, within existing FTEs. (There is an
FTE cap in place from pre-referendum.) This position would be parallel to and the same job-class as the
Adult Programming Coordinator, the Outreach Coordinator, and other Coordinator-type non-Librarian
positions. In addition, we would post this as Internal Recruitment Only, since it is NOT an addition to
employee count (FTE). Our Youth staff have been serving this need as well as possible - it is time to
formalize the role within the organization. (See Board motion below, in this section.)
e. Recommendation to reclassify most Library Page positions as Library Aides, due to evolving and expanded
duties
We have been using the 2014 LACONI Salary Survey for comparative purposes in evaluating and
recommending market-based changes to our salary ranges. In addition, Patron Services manager and
assistant manager have been conducting comparative studies of the types of responsibilities and tasks
performed by Pages and Clerks in other libraries. As a result, they have successfully demonstrated that the
work being performed routinely by persons classified as Pages at the Deerfield Public Library is more
consistent with work classified as Aide or Clerk in comparative libraries in the nearby area. Therefore, the
Page positions are recommended to be re-classified as Aide positions, and the wages of the persons
performing the tasks should be raised to the new salary level of the Aide job class. Their titles will also be
changed. Temporary position Pages, such as those who only perform shelving duties during the summer
months, and NOT the higher level routine tasks done by other Pages (now Aides), will continue to be paid at
the Page job class level and retain the Page title. All of this is consistent with the recommendation made for
the salary ranges and was reviewed by Mr. Abosch in advance. (See 9.a. for motion)

Update regarding art purchases made possible by Friends' donation
The "robot" prints for the Youth area have been ordered. Other art purchases have been postponed.
Update: Combination of lower level service desks and create seating area using existing furnishings
Plans to combine the two lower level service desks are proceeding. The move/combination is expected to
take place on April 20. Afterward, a seating area will be created where the Adult Service desk formerly
stood, allowing us to utilize excess furnishings from the Quiet Room, and resulting also in a rearrangement
of the Quiet Room spaces and furnishings.
Plans to honor outgoing board members on April 15
Outgoing board members will be honored with some special features at the April Board meeting. Since Ms.
Dembitz is unable to attend in April, we will plan to honor her at the May meeting if she can be available to
attend.
Reminder of orientation on April 26 and May 20 swearing in of new Board members
The planned orientation is scheduled for Saturday April 25th - correction from previous date. We will begin
at 9:15 am. The meeting should be over by noon.
May 20th is the first Board meeting for newly-elected Board members. Kent Street will be present to swear
them in.
Although the orientation will provide a financial overview, at the Board's suggestion additional Finance
Training will be scheduled at a later date
MOTION: Mr. Rivlin made a motion to approve the Preschool Coordinator position, seconded by Mr. Schriftman
Vote: All ayes. The motion was approved.

b. Update - GIVING button for donations, and related donation information
No further changes have been made.
c.
Update - Recruitment of new Library Director
Mr. Abosch said that the recruiter, Ms. Lynn Elam, had provided the following information: She is excited
about three candidates so far; two from the Chicago area and the third is from central Illinois. All have been
in high-level leadership roles. Also two other highly qualified candidates are considering the position. He
said that the total number of inquiries was not available.
Mr. Abosch said that the next step is to prepare sample writing documents and create dossiers. He
discussed the background check process and how any possible conflicts of interest should be openly
addressed. He announced that Ms. Miriam Pollack will assist with research and other background activities.
Potential meeting dates were discussed. It was suggested that the committee review candidates on April
20th, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. May 5 was discussed for conducting interviews, and May 12th as a fall-back date,
although not all board members will be available.
d.
Follow-up regarding automatic interior doors, survey results, quotes, and possible approval
Mr. Simon reviewed the information collected by Ms. Pergander in a survey of other area libraries and
governmental buildings regarding interior assistance opening doors. He said that no local libraries provide
this option.
Mr. Abosch asked if any door besides those to the Quiet Room were being considered and it was confirmed
that those are the only doors under consideration at this time.
Page 4 of 6
�Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
Regular Meeting Minutes
March 18, 2015
Ms. Pergander reported that the tension on the doors had been loosened, and it reduced the pressure by
about half. The members discussed ADA compliance, cost per door, other room doors, and possible
processes for obtaining assistance, if needed. It was decided that the Board has a responsibility to contact
the individual who brought the issue to their attention to see if the change made is adequate. Ms.
Pergander said she would follow-up.
e.
Update - Replacement of main electrical switch and possible insurance claim
Ms. Pergander said that the Library's insurance carrier had been contacted and will approve the claim.
There is a $1,000 deductible. It will involve closing the Library for two days to do the replacement. The
switch seems to be working at the moment. However, if the work is not scheduled, and the switch goes out,
then the Library could be closed for an extended time. There is a seven-week lead time for the necessary
parts.
MOTION: Mr. Schriftman made a motion to approve the replacement of the main electrical switch, seconded by Ms.
Luisa Ellenbogen
Vote: 6 yes - Ken Abosch, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman, and Ron Simon. The
motion was approved.
f.
9.
Reconsideration of policy approval cycle and possible revision
This topic was discussed earlier. See 4.c. above.
NEW BUSINESS
a. Recommendation to approve new salary schedule revisions based on LACONI 2014 survey
Ms. Pergander explained the process of developing the new salary ranges. She said that she and Mr.
Abosch, a compensation professional, had then reviewed them together.
The Board members discussed the impact of the pending changes to minimum wage. It was noted that the
Page position can go up to $10 without being too compressed with Clerk/Aide range.
Mr. Abosch provided information regarding twenty-seven other states that have already adopted revised
minimum wages and said that it is still under consideration in Illinois.
MOTION: Mr. Goldberg made a motion to approve the revised salary range schedule, seconded by Ms. Luisa
Ellenbogen
Vote: 6 yes - Ken Abosch, Luisa Ellenbogen, Michael Goldberg, Jeff Rivlin, Seth Schriftman, and Ron Simon. The
motion was approved.
b.
Recommendation to approve policies reviewed by Finance Committee and recommended for Board
approval at its March 9 meeting, related to finance functions, as listed in the committee minutes
This item was discussed during the Treasurer's Report, in item 4-b.
c.
Reminder to submit letters of interest in Board officer positions prior to April meeting for May selection
Mr. Simon reviewed the process for nominating and electing Board officers. He reviewed past practices and
said that the Bylaws provide one-year terms for officers, and some officers can serve for more than one oneyear term if desired. However, the Bylaws state that the President cannot serve for more than two
consecutive one-year terms. Ms. Pergander reminded the Board members that officers will be elected in
May, after the new Board members are sworn in. At that time any of the Trustees can be nominated or
self-nominate for any office.
