Awesome Things
Library cards available for
awesome readers ages 5+
(Tour of Awesome begins on page 2)
i
�September is officially
Library Card Sign-up
Month!
This “holiday” is an initiative
championed by the American
Library Association to promote,
you guessed it, library cards! In
1987, Education Secretary
William J. Bennett wanted a
way to encourage all children
to get, and use, a library
card. Since then,
libraries use this
month as a way
Celebrate Library Card Sign-up
Month by exploring the awesomeness
of your Deerfield Public Library!
True, you don’t need a library card for all these activities, but
everyone should have this awesome card in their wallet.
Library cards are available for ages 5+!
to remind the public that a
library card is a way to explore
educational and recreational
resources. Public libraries are
great equalizers. There are very
few civic institutions that serve
people from all backgrounds
and walks of life. Public
libraries are a source of
community pride, and each one
is unique in how it serves its
community.
At Deerfield Public Library,
we are very proud of the
variety of services we offer
our community. Throughout
this issue of Browsing, we
will be highlighting some of
the great things that you can
do with your DPL card.
We hope you will find
something new
and unique.
With your library card, in
addition to being able to check
out books in a variety of
formats, I encourage you to
explore the Library's wide
variety of digital resources. Are
you looking to make an
automobile purchase this year?
Be sure to check out our new
Auto Finance Resource
database. Download the hoopla
app to get access to hundreds
of streaming TV shows, movies,
and audiobooks. And we have
an amazing, professional staff
available to assist you in your
information-seeking endeavors.
We are here to help you find the
information you need.
Deerfield Public Library is
always looking for ways to meet
the needs of the community.
Your library card is the key that
can unlock many doors!

A Welcome and a Look Ahead
Welcome Amy Falasz-Peterson, our new Library
Director as of July 1! Amy is learning all about our
outstanding Library — perhaps you have seen
her in the Library, in the lobby during the July
4th parade, or around town as she settles in. Amy
comes to us with nine years’ experience as Library
Director in East Peoria, Illinois. Amy has also
been an Assistant Director and Head of Reference,
experience we know will serve us well. During the
interview process, Amy impressed the Board and
Library staff with her focus on community,
outreach, customer service, and respect for the
important role libraries play in communities.
With Amy’s leadership, the Board will begin a
strategic plan this year. We will research new and
future trends in libraries, and we will ask you to
help us identify needs. Our last strategic plan
helped lead us to our renovated, larger library. It
helped identify the need for more study rooms,
more meeting spaces, and technological updates
throughout the library. After living in our new
space for two years, we are excited to make plans
for the future. Please check future Browsing
issues and our website for opportunities to
be involved.

Deerfield Library is STEAMing
What is STEAM and why is
it at the Library?
STEAM is the acronym for Science,
^technology, Engineering, Art, and
Mathematics. At the Deerfield Public
Library you’ll find STEAM throughout the
Youth Services Department’s programming.
The Library is a perfect place to introduce
and encourage your child's natural curiosity
about the world.
What type of STEAM programs
does the Library offer?
Programs with a STEAM emphasis are
offered at the Library year-round. KiDLS
(Kids in Deerfield Love Science) is our
quarterly event for the elementary school
crowd and their grown-ups. From examining
color to making our own music to learning
about Illinois’ wild mammals, we have a
great time in KiDLS!
STEAM can also be found in other programs,
such as Ready, Set, Learn offered during
the school year for preschoolers, in our
Minecraft Clubs, and in our homeschool
10
programs. Every year, the DPS 109 schools,
area preschools, other schools and
homeschoolers showcase their artwork
in the glass display cases as you enter the
youth department.
At what age is it appropriate to
introduce your child to STEAM?
“Real science begins
with childhood
curiosity, which
leads to discovery
and exploration....,f
It is never too early to encourage your child’s
exploration of the world. Whether through
a program or our books and magazines, the
Deerfield Public Library offers a myriad of
ways to engage with and enhance your child’s
curiosity. Choose a picture book, such as
ILove Bugs! by Philemon Stages, or a
nonfiction title, such as Growing Patterns:
Fibonacci Numbers in Nature by Sarah C.
Campbell, or magazines such as Ask! and
Click, and begin your journey of discovery
right here!
*Science in the Preschool Classroom:
Capitalizing on Children’s Fascination with
the Everyday World to Foster Language and
Literacy Development by Kathleen Coneczio

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.

Leading from Vision to Reality
It’s hard to believe we have now been in
our new Library spaces almost a year.
During those crucial transitional years of
planning for the referendum and making
the vision of exciting new Library spaces a
reality, we were fortunate to have stable,
dedicated leadership on the Library Board.
Ken Abosch has served as President since
2008, and we invited him to share his
thoughts for this issue ofBrowsing.
Thank you, Ken, for your years of
successful leadership at the helm of the
Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees.
Mary Pergander
Library Director
In May I will be transitioning out of the
Library Board President role after having
served in this positionfor the last six
years. I will continue to be an active
member of the Board and represent the
constituents ofDeerfield and Library
patrons everywhere in creating a great
Library experience!
These last six years have seen tremendous
advancesfor the Deerfield Public Library
culminating in the wonderful renovated
facility we now all enjoy and are proud to
have in our community. The quality of
our Board members, the dedication of our
staff, the collaboration and supportfrom
Village ofDeerfield officials, and the trust
and commitment rom
f the public has
made this all possible.
I appreciate the confidence the Board has
shown in allowing me to lead this
organization and lookforward to even
greater accomplishmentsfor the Library
in the years ahead!

Easier than ever!
Have you had an opportunity to get cozy with a
book in one of the new easy chairs in the library?
The addition of more comfy chairs is in response
to requests received from many community
members since the Grand Reopening last
summer. Here are other examples of our
continuing commitment to listening, and making
your Library experience easier:
You asked for a more convenient library card
option. It’s here! If you have a smartphone,
you can load your card into a convenient
app, and leave the card at home.
Did you know that ALL locations in the
Library are Wi-Fi Hot Spots? And you can
print right from your device as well.
Laptop lending is now available! Deerfield
cardholders can borrow a laptop for
in-Library use.
All programs and meeting room events are
now shown on the online calendar. So
whether you are coming for a Library
program, or for your club or homeowner
association meeting, you can easily confirm
the date, time, and location from anywhere,
at any time.
Check on page 11 for more information on
these fabulous new services that will
streamline your library experience.
We aren’t done yet! We are still working to make
the Library cozier, and add the finishing touches
that will make it feel more warm and welcoming.
Changes being considered include artwork,
plants, footrests, more soft seating, and accent
lighting. Watch for these continuing
improvements throughout the year. Pay us
a visit soon.

Helping our Neighbors
Next time you drop in the Library, consider dropping off some items for the
West Deerfield Township Food Pantry. Every little bit helps, as the Pantry
relies entirely on contributions to meet the year-round high demand for
basic foodstuffs, household cleaning items, and personal hygiene products
that the Pantry provides free of charge.
The Food Pantry serves over 250 township residents each month who find
themselves in need, either on a long-term or temporary basis. Many are
seniors who live on fixed incomes, while others are families with children.
Starting March 1, you can drop off your donations in the Libraiy’s lobby
(no glass, please).
Food Pantry Wish List:
• Canned protein (tuna, chicken,
salmon, beans)
• Side dish mixes (rice, potato,
pasta)
• Toilet paper
• Paper towels
• Juice
• Canned fruit
• Soup
• Peanut butter
• Laundry detergent (small size)
The Library food drive will run from March 1 through March 23. Your
donations will be delivered to the Pantry, where bags of food and personal
items, as available, are ready for pick up on the first or third Thursday of
each month. Anyone with an urgent need for assistance, however, may call
or visit the Township office any business day.
WELCOME OUR NEW BOARD MEMBERS
The Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees recently completed
the selection process, and appointed two new members
to fill open seats on the Board. Luisa Ellenbogen and
Seth Schriftman will serve until the next election in 2015.

The Mystery ofthe World’s
Most Expensive Bottle of Wine
by Benjamin Wallace
Tuesday, March 4, 7:00pm @ Whole Foods Market
Deerfield I Adults 21 years and older
In 1985, at a heated auction by
Christie’s of London, a 1787
bottle of Chateau Lafite
Bordeaux, unearthed from a
bricked-up Paris cellar and
supposedly owned by Thomas
Jefferson, went for $156,000 to
a member of the Forbes family.
But rumors about the bottle
soon arose. Why wouldn’t the
seller reveal the exact location where it had been
found? Was it part of a smuggled Nazi hoard? Did
his reticence conceal a dark secret? Join us to
discuss this real-life mystery, followed by a wine
and cheese tasting presented by Whole Foods
Market, 760 Waukegan Road, Deerfield. Sign up
