Story on page 2
60 YEAR REFLECTION
�From the Director
We are in year three of our Strategic Plan,
developed in 2016 after months of work.
We surveyed Library patrons to gather their
feedback about what they want in their Library.
The staff and board are proud of the work that
has been accomplished. We have increased unique types of items
in the collection, added a self-checkout station for ease, adjusted
check out periods and added new spaces for our youngest patrons
in the Youth Services Department
In response to the enhanced emphasis in education for science
and math, the Library has responded with an increase in
technology programs. Some of our most popular programs have
been rooted in the maker technology. The maker movement is a
technology-based extension of DIY culture that intersects with
computer culture. This focus has coincided with our interest in
repurposing some of our space.
In 2018, the staff and board began working with Product Architecture
& Design, a firm that specializes in creating flexible library spaces.
We evaluated various options for reconfiguring our physical collection,
and have decided to repurpose the space that houses our DVD and
CD collection. We anticipate that we will see this transformation to
begin in the summer of 2019. We will be moving the Media Desk
from a somewhat hidden position to a more accessible location. This
new collaborative workspace will provide our community innovative
access to technology. We are excited to invigorate the space, and will
provide further details as plans develop.

Deerfield 1959: New Insights
At the end of 2018, the Libraiy launched a new website, The Fight to Integrate Deerfield: 60 Year Reflection (deerfieldlibrarj.org/FID).
The website documents an important and complex time in the history of Deerfield and the United States. With the website, the Library
is presenting an array of special programs and exhibits to illuminate our community’s stoiy.
This is not a new story. There were community programs on the 1959 integration crisis for the 40- and 50-year anniversaries, and it has
been part of the Deerfield schools’ curriculum for years. This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for
our archives, new revelations, and several recent and forthcoming books and projects that feature Deerfield’s integration case.
Website
The new website includes online exhibits,
interviews, discussion guides, booklists,
a timeline of events, and our historical
archives. This will serve as the online
home for our resources for years to come
so that, beyond our program series,
future generations will have access to the
materials.
Historical Archives
The preservation of our physical archives
has been an important component of our
60 year reflection project. Standout items
in the newly digitized history collection
include newspaper articles quoting
Eleanor Roosevelt and Martin Luther
King Jr., anti-integration editorials, and
items related to the formation of the pro
integration Deerfield Citizens for Human
Rights.
Exhibits
2
Temporary exhibits will feature original
primary source materials including
propaganda, protest handouts, newspaper
articles, and rare photographs on loan
from the Art Shay Archives. Exhibits
will be on display in several locations
throughout the Library for the duration
of the program series.
for the Library’s permanent collection.
The photos represent a documentary and
artistic record of the fight over integrated
housing in Deerfield.
Art Shay Photographs
Share Your Story
A generous donation from the Friends of
the Deerfield Public Libraiy has made
possible the purchase of two photographs
by longtime Deerfield resident and
world-renowned photographer, Art Shay,
We are interested in personal stories,
memories, contemporary reflections, and
physical documents related to the fight to
integrate Deerfield. If interested, email

Court Case Dogs ofChicago
Tuesday, July 19, 7:00-8:30pm
Real People, Real Stones
is a new series which focuses
on ordinary people with
extraordinary stories.
Not long ago, Chicagoland animals
seized from neglectful or criminally
charged owners were viewed solely
as evidence. They were rescued, but
then languished in a kennel until
their owners’ court cases concluded,
and then they were typically
euthanized. In 2010, Safe Humane
Chicago launched the Court Case
Dogs program - a not-for-profit
group that gets these animals
rehabilitated and adopted. Cynthia
Bathurst, co-founder of Safe Humane
Chicago, will discuss this thriving
program and its team of volunteers,
dog trainers, behavioral consultants,
partner organizations and lastly, the
court case dogs who moved beyond
their histories and into homes of
people who love them. A RuffRoad
Home by Susan Russell will be
available for purchase. Due to
sensitive material, please no

What three words would you use to describe your
ideal library experience? Our Board and staff
members will be asking you that over the coming
months, as we continue to refine and enhance your
library experience, both in the physical library and
the virtual version.
U

I DIDN’T KNOW THAT!
We asked staff to give us the inside track on some possibly
under-the-radar services and resources.
Are you among those downloading 2,000 e-books each
month from the Libraiy? Is your club or organization
using one of our free meeting room spaces? Have you
had a favorite book signed by a visiting author? Are
you playing Minecraft with friends at the Libraiy? Did
you help provide for the food pantiy or the animal
shelter through our donation days?
Melissa S., Adult Sendees: “The Library has two
notaries on staff and offers notary services free
of charge. As notary needs vary - some are
quick and easy, while some require more time
and paperwork —we encourage patrons to call
ahead to make an appointment, and speak to
the notary to make sure you have all the items
needed to moveforward with the process. ”
Is your Library card now accessed through an app on
your smartphone, rather than plastic in your wallet?
Do you follow our blogs online? Have you been to one
of our Pinterest classes? Are you enjoying local
attractions with a Museum Adventure Pass?
Kary H., Youth Services: “One of ourfavorite
days in the Youth Department is when a young
child gets his/her very own library card! You
may not know that library cards are available
to children ages 5 and older. We like to make a
big deal about it, so be sure to stop by the Youth
Services desk and let your child show us
his/her new card!"
Yes, books are what we are known for, AND we are so
much more! Come explore us today - and let us WOW
you.
Mary Pergander
Library Director
Vicki K., Patron Services: “Patrons often ask us
where they can register to vote, and are thrilled
to learn they can do so right at the library.
During most hours we are open, there is a staff
member available to register voters. All you need
to bring are twoforms ofID, one with your
current address. FYI, as ofJuly 1, 2014, Illinois
residents have the option to register to vote online at
https://ova.elections.il.gov ”
Our remodeled and renovated library is just over a year
old, and we thank all of you again for your support
with our project. Now that we have settled in to our
new space, we are looking ahead to keep improving
our service to the community.
We’ve appreciated your feedback over the past year
and hopefully you’ve noticed improvements both in the
building and on our website. As the Board and Library
staff begin re-examining our mission and vision, know
that we strive to bring you an outstanding collection,
led by an outstanding staff, in a space where you
enjoy spending part of your day.

�New Tech @ Your Library
Library Tech Classes
Lead to Discovery
When attorney Eugene Stahnke retired from
practice, he got right to work ramping up his
computer skills. Over the past year, Eugene has
taken more than a dozen technology classes offered
by the Libraiy, and has advanced from “101” level to
fluency with a wide range of digital activities. We
asked Eugene to share some thoughts about his
learning experience.
Visit us at deerfieldlibrarv.org
Instruction Librarian Jenn Hovanec
has led many ofthe technology classes
attended by Eugene Stahnke
Q. What was your motivation to take the Library's technology classes?
A. During my years as an attorney, the division of labor always had someone else handling
the computer-related tasks. As a result, I had little detailed knowledge of the computer
and the Web. I got tired of asking for help, and relying on others for even the simplest
of activities, such as email.
Meet Your New Website
The Library’s refresh continues
with a spiffy new website design.
It features friendly navigation,
optimized mobile browsing, and
fresh insights from expert Library
staff. Enjoy the tour!
Q. Why would you recommend the Library's classes?
A. For starters, you have expert trainers, and at no cost. The classes are extremely well
organized, and the librarians leading the classes are excellent communicators. The
hands-on training, with the instructor right in front of you, is invaluable. They provide
excellent handouts, and are always available for questions if you get stuck up the road.
Q. How have you been using your new skills?
A. Where to start? Email, of course, and basic word processing. I’ve also enjoyed learning
how to truly mine gold from the library’s catalog, including tracking down books and
articles for my many interests and hobbies. One class introduced a number of
important free online resources, including Consumer Reports. I also learned about the
Goodreads website, which has become a favorite for tracking my reading, and sharing
with a world-wide online community of readers.
Q. Have you had any unexpected outcomes?
A. I never expected to own a tablet and a smartphone, and to be actively using them.
Diking photos with the smartphone is worlds beyond what I eked out on my old
cellphone. The Library’s classes have helped guide the whole experience from
purchasing to organizing photos and sharing them online.
Game on at Teen PS4
Station!
Teens, next time you need a break
from studying or just to relax, try
the new Teen Gaming Station.
Located in the Teen Space, the
game station has a brand new
PlayStation 4 with pre-loaded
games, wireless controllers, and
headphones. Current available
games include: Fifa 14, Madden 25,
Lego Marvel Superheroes, and Need
for Speed Rivals. Stop at the Media
Desk to check out the
controllers and headsets.
10
Q. What recommendations do you have tor getting started?
A. After class, be sure to use the handout and continue to reinforce what you learned in
class. It’s not that time-consuming, and repetition makes all the difference. If you don’t
have a computer at home, there are many hours of open access to the computers in the
Library’s lab. If you are interested in purchasing a computer, I highly recommend “How
to Buy a Computer” on November 19. Also, don’t be nervous about being in the class.
The shared experience proved to be very beneficial.

Promises Kept
Our year-long construction project to
bring you a 21st Century library is nearly
complete. We’ll be closing the doors at
7 N. Waukegan Road on Friday, May 24 at
6pm. We look forward to greeting you at
our Grand Reopening on Sunday, June
23 at 1:00pm. After a brief ribbon cutting
ceremony and words of greeting, we will
invite the community in to experience
the Library like never before. Want to
see the whole thing, and hear about all
the new features? Guided tours will
show you around. Use one of our new
laptop computers to explore the world.
Share our new Preschool Pavilion with
your children. Curl up with your favorite
read and enjoy the silence of our Quiet
Area for adults. Have a few overdue
books or movies? Enjoy fees and fines
amnesty for the entire first week we
are open.
The Board members and I want to thank
you for your support and patience
throughout the Library Improvement
Project. We believe you will agree it has
been worth it - with a refreshed Library
space, and informed staff members
ready to serve you. And the physical
Library isn’t the whole story - ask about
our virtual services, available whenever
and wherever you are.
We hope you will agree that the renewed
Deerfield Public Library represents
“promises kept” to our community.
We look forward to seeing you on
June 23!

Many thanks to Celeste Hanson, Lindsay
Schmitt and Michael Cianfrani for all of their
great work on creating the Library’s lively Grand
Reopening graphic.
Shout out to Michael Carniello and Mindy
Kolof, first and second place winners of the
Library’s 2nd annual “Guess the Grammys”

Thanks to our good friends at TRAX for their

Claire Johnson,
8th grader at
Holy Cross, is the
winner of the
new Children’s
Library card
design contest!
Claire is an avid
Library user who
“reads, reads
and reads”—
which is how she
got the idea for the award-winning design.
Claire’s was one of almost 80 entries. These
were pared down to six semi-finalists and we
asked the community to vote for their
favorite. Young people 18 and under will be
able to exchange their old cards for this new
design, and adult patrons will be able to
exchange their cards for the new adult design
featuring the renovated Library building very
soon. Check the website for more details.

Message from the Director
We are moving right along in our remodeling and
expansion plans. Currently, we are completing the design
approvals process through the Commissions and the Village Board.
We are also looking for a suitable temporary site during construction.
Here is our estimated calendar:
• September, 2011 — Begin creating construction documents
• January, 2012 — Go out for construction bids
• February, 2012 — Move into temporary site
• April, 2012 — Begin construction on remodeling and expansion
• Late fall 2013 — Return to 920 Waukegan
We appreciate the input and feedback we receive from residents along the way, whether through our public information
sessions, emails and comment cards, visits with our Board members at Farmers Markets or just in line at the grocery store!
In discussions about the building project, we are often asked how the Library is addressing the rapid increase in electronic
formats for books and movies. We already have e-books and e-audios available, along with a limited video selection.
Currently, e-book demand is surpassing our available copies. We will soon make more e-book copies of popular titles
available to our users, while still offering a wide selection of new and beloved print books. We are taking these changes into
account as we plan the new spaces for the Library, allowing MORE to be the dominant word—more books through the
combination of print and e-formats, more space to read in a comfortable chair, more room for individuals using laptops,
more private spaces for small group discussions, more space to spread out study materials.
Throughout the changes to come, we will continue to share our developing plans and progress with residents through our
website, print newsletter, Facebook, and other means. We hope you will follow along!

We’re Reading
Together, Again!
Our community-wide reading program, One
Book, One Zip Code, coincides with the 10th
anniversary of September 11,2001, an event
that drives the plot of this year’s selection,
“Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” by
Jonathan Safran Foer.
In the book, nine-year-old Oskar Schell embarks
on a secret mission to find the lock that matches
a mysterious key that belonged to his father,
who died in the World Trade Center on the
morning of September 11. This brings Oskar
into contact with survivors of all sorts on an
affecting, often funny, and ultimately healing
journey.
The 10-year anniversary played a big role in the
One Book, One Zip Code committee’s selection.
“One way we learn about the past is through
stories,” says David Hirsch, long time member
of the committee. “Fiction is a powerful vehicle
for us to explore our relationships with each
other and with events like 9/11. One of the most
wonderful things about reading this book at this
time is that it enhances both the experience
of reading and our understanding of the com
plexities of 9/11. We hope that this book adds a
significant layer to the commemoration of 9/11.”
Another way we hope to add a “significant
layer” to this important remembrance is
through our programming. On Sunday,
September 11, following the civic ceremony at
Deerfield Village Hall which starts at 1:30 p.m,
Rabbi Aaron Melman of Temple Beth Shalom
in Northbrook will speak about his personal
experiences as student chaplain of the New
York Fire Department on 9/11. At 6:30 p.m.
on Monday, September 12, at Deerfield High
School, David Hirsch will interview the author
via Skype! Plus, Whitehall of Deerfield will
give away two Nooks and Barnes & Noble
gift cards. Other One Book programs are
highlighted in this issue of BROWSING or at
onebookonezipcode.org.
Special cards for sharing thoughts of 9/11 will
be available at every event, at the Library, at
the Patty Turner Center, at the high school and
elsewhere. People can drop off their cards or
mail them to the Library, which will collect
the cards in a book that will be added to the
collection.
Please join us in reading together, again!

What’s Next? That is a P'
A
question I field many
times a day from
residents interested in
knowing how our construction plans are
coming along. Our design process is just
kicking off. The Library Board is seeking
input from a variety of sources to refine
the design concepts. In the near future,
we will also begin the Village Commissions
approval process. Consistent with our
commitment to keep residents informed
and involved, we are planning a community
meeting this spring to share the renderings
of the design to that stage. This would
include the interior, exterior, landscaping,
and energy plans. Please watch for
announcements of the date and time.
At
Although actual construction is still far
off, there are sounds of construction near
our Circulation department as we install a
RFID system for patron convenience and
improved accuracy. A new interior “window”
has been created. Library materials returned
through that window are automatically
checked in, reducing error and getting
materials back to the shelves more quickly.
We are also combining our Teen and Media
service desks into one unit at a more
convenient location for improved service.
Look for our new, welcoming Information
desk and hot beverage vending near the
Library entrance, and patron-oriented
checkout stations in Youth Services as
well as at the Circulation desk. (Thanks
to the Friends for purchasing the first of
three new stations!) We welcome resident
feedback to make these services even
better in the new construction.
Bottom line: We never stop seeking ways
to better serve our library patrons and
community.
Faster, More Accurate Service
with RFID and Self Check
As the Library plans for a large-scale renovation
project, we are making a series of service
improvements that will have immediate benefits
for our patrons before implementing them in a
reconfigured building.
We have recently put Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags in all of our
materials to increase the speed and accuracy of checking items in and out of
the Library. RFID will check in items instantaneously, with nearly 100%
accuracy. Items will automatically be sorted upon check-in and get back on the
shelves and into circulation more quickly.
RFID tags will also allow patrons to quickly and easily use new checkout
machines installed on the Library’s upper and lower levels. Self-check stations
help patrons get their selections out the door and home to eqjoy sooner. Staff
members will be available all hours of operation to assist patrons with these
new stations.
Patrons who require assistance with library card registration or questions about
their account will now be able to take their time working with a circulation
staff member away from busy checkout lanes. In addition, an Information desk
near the front gates will also help patrons get speedy responses to our most
frequently asked questions.
Implementing RFID at this time will also greatly improve the Library’s ability to
keep track of materials during an extensive renovation project. Read more
about the Library’s next steps in the Message from the Director.
Where’s One Book, One Zip Code?
Discussions and events tailored to the 2011 community-wide \
reading program selection, Extremely Loud and Incredibly
Close by Jonathan Safran Foer, will take place this fall to
bii© 8@©Ss

This year’s remarkable selection introduces Oskar Schell, the
Zipcode
nine-year-old son of a man killed in the World Trade Center
attacks, as he searches the five boroughs of New York City for a
lock that fits a black key his father left behind.
The OBOZ Steering Committee is in the process of planning this year’s
supporting events, including a live, teleconferenced interview with the author.

Thanks to a generous donation from the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library,
we are currently building a collection of Blu-ray films! The new format will be
available this spring.
Attention Local Histoiy Bull'-:
/e/<?PubVc
The Friends of the Deerfield Public
Libraiy are happy to report that through
the community’s support purchasing
books from the Used Book Sale and
annual memberships, we are able to
fund the following items in 2011: partial
funding for a New Early Childhood
Literacy Station in Youth Sendees, a
substantial collection of Blu-ray discs,
and a Self-Checkout Station.
The Friends want to thank the
community for their used book
donations. The Friends continue to
accept gently used hardback,
paperback, and children’s books, as well
as DVDs and CDs. Please bring
donations to the Circulation desk at the
Library7 during regular business hours.
Volunteers sort and shelve these
donations, and we ask households to
donate only two shopping bags or boxes
per week.
We continue to need the support from
the community with Annual
Memberships. A Friends’ membership is
$15 per year, but any amount is welcome.
Please make checks payable to the
Friends of the Deerfield Public Library,
920 Waukegan Rd., Deerfield, IL 60015.

Recently, the Libraiy acquired nearly 60 years’ worth of bound Deerfield Review
newspapers, dating back to 1945. Each volume includes original articles,
photographs, obituaries, and advertisements.
Coffee, Tea, and Quiet
A new hot beverage station on the Library’s upper level now offers a wider variety
of coffee options. Coffee will sell for 25$ per cup and cups of cappuccino, mocha,
or hot chocolate are only 50$ each. This unit replaces the carafes of coffee that
were available in the Fiction Room.
Moving the busy beverage station out of the Fiction Room will help reclaim that
space for patrons looking for a quiet place to study, read, or just relax. Readers’
Sendees staff still look fonvard to talking to patrons about books; they’ll just be
using their “library voices.” Please help us keep this space one where peace and
quiet are a priority.
Did You Know? TV Turnoff Week is April 18 - 24, 2011
The Youth Services department offers a variety of games, puzzles, and coloring
pages to make your visit to the Libraiy an enjoyable one. Of course, there are also
books, recorded books, and music to check out and keep you busy without turning
on the TV! Need a recommendation? Stop by the Youth Services department!

Vd Public Lib
To Deerfield Residents
From Ken Abosch, President
Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees
On July 21, the Library Board unanimously
agreed to take the next step toward a plan to
improve the Deerfield Public Library. Trustees
voted to put a referendum on the November
2010 general election ballot asking for funds
for the Library Improvement Plan. (See related
article.)
As President of the Deerfield Public Library
Board of Trustees, I am proud of the public
process used to develop the plan. A 23-member
Citizens Input Group (CIG) helped the Library
Board gather and evaluate feedback about
Library needs and options through a series of
seven community open houses in March and
June. The Board also sought input about
improvement options through an independent
telephone survey of community residents, as
well as one-on-one conversations.
As a result of what we heard, Library Trustees
combined elements from several options and
downsized the most ambitious improvement
suggestions. The Library Improvement Plan
expands on what is now available and possible.
It will bring our Library into the 21st centuiy
in order to provide Deerfield with the greatest
possible value from this important community
asset.
On behalf of the Libraiy Board, I want to thank
everyone who participated in this process by
sharing ideas, feedback, and questions.
Especially, we want to thank the members of
the Citizens Input Group for being the
additional eyes and ears for the Libraiy Board,
by helping trustees gather input from Deerfield
residents.
We look forward to talking with community
members over the next few months as we
provide more details about the Libraiy
Improvement Plan.
"•WS.
*6' Number 2
Library Improvement Plan
Over the past year, the Libraiy Board has carefully evaluated options for
improving our nearly 40-year-old libraiy building and its capacity to serve
Deerfield residents. Libraiy Trustees sought input from Deerfield residents and
studied how best to meet the libraiy service needs of our community now and
into the future.
At its July 21,2010 meeting, Libraiy Trustees reviewed all these findings and
voted unanimously to seek funding through a November 2010 referendum for a
Libraiy Improvement Plan. The plan will upgrade infrastructure, reconfigure
and renovate existing space, and expand the Libraiy by about 10,000 square feet.
The Deerfield Public Libraiy has been well used since the building opened
more than 39 years ago. Since 1971, Deerfield’s population has changed and
usage has increased. New types of materials, services, and technology have
expanded the ways residents can use and benefit from the Libraiy.
“While we’ve been able to update some services to meet changing needs, we
face challenges in delivering 21st-century service from a building that was built
in the last centuiy. Our residents deserve a full-service library that is better
able to meet the growing demands and changing needs of our community,” said
Ken Abosch, Library Board President.
After considering a range of options and reviewing community input, the
Libraiy Board developed a Libraiy Improvement Plan that it feels offers the
greatest value in the most cost-effective manner. The project is significantly
downsized from a 2004 referendum which sought to build a new libraiy. The
2010 referendum amount of $11,775 million is less than half of the amount
sought in 2004. The existing building will be renovated and expanded, providing
new and better spaces at a more economical cost. Exciting new areas and
features will be designed for flexibility to meet changing space and patron
needs into the future.
The Libraiy Board plans to spend $2 million of its reserves on the project. The
reserves were accumulated specifically for this type of need: to update and
replace infrastructure, or other capital project needs related to the building.
More information about the proposed Libraiy Improvement Plan is available on
the Library’s website at www.deerfieldlibraiy.org. In addition, Public
Information Meetings in September and October will provide architectural
conceptual drawings and more information about the project.

Stoichiometric Coefficients and
the Molar Ratios
“Sure.”
We suppose that there are some parents
who might say, “Cool - first check the
stoichiometric coefficients and the molar
ratios.” If you are that parent, skip this
article and go on to the next. If you’re not,
you need to know about Live Homework
Help from Tutor.com, a premium service
offered free by the Library that provides
real homework help from real, live tutors
online. Students K - 12, college-level
students and adult learners can receive
help in math, social studies, English or
science-including chemistiy. In fact, in
June, lOth-grade chemistiy students used
Tutor.com to ask questions just like the one
described above. Here’s one of the
comments from a chemistiy student about
the service: “My tutor was incredible. She
was able to help me out with a difficult
chem concept and she continued to give me
practice problems when she realized I was
still shaky.”
Access to Tutor.com is available free
through the Web site to all patrons at the
Library and available to Deerfield Public
Library cardholders from home seven
days a week from 2-9 p.m.

The Library Board is p- .
launching increased . A
efforts to inform and
seek feedback from
Deerfield residents about Library
needs and possibilities. During
Februaiy, the Board formed a citizen
input group of interested community
members. In March, the Board will
hold open house-style public
information sessions for all interested
Deerfield residents. For convenience,
the days and times will vary, but the
information will remain the same. The
intent is to share information about
the Library’s current building,
infrastructure problems, programming
and service limitations, future needs,
and funding alternatives. In exchange,
the Board will seek feedback from
community members to help the
Board consider and assess
alternatives.
In late spring, the Board will use
an independent firm to conduct a
scientifically-representative sample of
randomly chosen residents for a
telephone survey. The results will be
shared with the citizen input group
and others. In June and July, a second
round of public information sessions
will be held for all residents, to share
results of the survey and other inputs,
and to seek additional feedback.
Through these public-engagement
activities, by late summer, the Board
hopes to determine which alternative
may be the most attractive to
community members. The Board will
then decide how to proceed toward
that objective, and how the project
should be funded.
Library Board Hosts Open House Events
to Discuss Facility Options
Interested community members are invited to attend one or more of the Library
open houses scheduled for March. The open house will be an opportunity to learn
more about the facility issues and needs, options being studied, and financing
alternatives for building improvements. A formal presentation will take place at
the beginning of each session; then attendees may stay for the discussion and
tours. The Library Board is encouraging feedback from the community on the
various Library options. Visit the Library Web site for further information and to
register in advance. All sessions are at the Library.
Open House Dates and Times

�DVD Check Out Policy to Change
Beginning March 1, juvenile patrons (under 18) may check out any DVDs or video
games unless their guardian fills out a form restricting their borrowing privileges.
Previously, all minors were restricted from borrowing movies or games unless a
parent signed a permission slip allowing them to do so. As before, parents assume
full responsibility for return, damage, fees, or fines for materials loaned, and hold
the Deerfield Public Library harmless from the loan of any materials. More
information and a downloadable copy of the Juvenile Video/DVD and Video Game
Permission Form are available on the Library’s Web site.
Plant a Seed
A start-up volunteer program is taking root at the Library.
The beginnings are modest - ongoing shelf maintenance
. (ensuring that books are in the proper order and the shelf
is clean and inviting); cleaning and sanitizing toys in the
Youth Services department; disc resurfacing (a simple
mechanized process to repair and clean DVDs, CDs, and
game discs), and general “straightening up” in the Library. If
you have a limited amount of time but want to make a big
difference, contact Jody Wilson atjwilson@deerfieldlibraiy.org for
more information.
Organize Your Holds
If you’re reading books in a series or don’t want to get calls or emails about a
waiting list while you’re on vacation, you can now freeze your holds in the “My
Account” feature in the Library’s online catalog. To suspend a hold, check the
“freeze” box and click “update list”.
Book Group Connect
Are you'looking for a way to attract new
members to your book group? Or would you like
to share a listxof what your group is reading?
The Fiction Room is creating a temporary
display space for your private book groups to
connect with each other, attract new members,
and learn about the Library’s resources. If you
would like to submit an 8 Vi x 11 poster or list
of books your group'rereading, contact Melissa
Stoeger at mstoeger@deerfieldlibrary.org.
