Our New Library Catalog and
How to Use It.
�Across the Librarian’s Desk
This Library was founded seventyfive years ago when Mrs. F.W.
Russo opened the Library doors
for the first time on New Years
Day, January 1927. Since that
time the Library has been housed
in the Deerfield Grammar School,
next into a storefront by the old
Callner Building, then stored away in a number of base
ments and garages to be shelved in the Township build
ing, and since 1971 here at the present location. The
longevity and success of this library has been the result
of the vision, hard work and dedication of many people
over a long period of time truly a collaborative effort.
The present building was built in response to a study
done by the Deerfield League of Women Voters in 1967
which found the old library seriously deficient. In seven
ty-five years there have been five Directors: Mrs. Russo,
Mrs. Wolff, Mrs. Haney, Mrs. Whetstone and me.
There have been many defining moments since that New
Years Day in 1927 for the world, nation, Village, and the
Library. Lindbergh flew the Atlantic that year and dra
matic change has been a way of life ever since. The
library as an institution has changed more in the past fif
teen years than it did in the past one hundred and fifty.
In the span of my library career the library universe has
grown globally from the size of a single room to a reach
that encompasses every part of the world. With comput
ers, libraries moved from the 19th Century to the 21st
Century in a single leap. Library services, formats, mate
rials, and techniques have all changed, and will continue
to change. What has not changed for libraries is that at
the heart of everything we do are the residents we serve.
Many pundits have predicted the demise or death of the
library as an institution with the advent of computers
and the Internet. Our statistics, numbers, and usage here
in Deerfield do not lend that theory much credence. Our
percentage of resident cardholders, our circulation and
our reference question totals show an active clientele,
while statistics from the Youth Services Department
show a growing service population. Ttoo flourishing
mega-bookstores in our community validate this as a
neighborhood of readers. The Library has kept abreast of
current computer technology tools of access, Internet
connections, and web-based services being only some of
our services. E-books and downloaded services are just
around the corner. But books will still remain crucial to
our long range mission. Why do I say that?
Recent events like the Enron scandal with the loss of
computer data, the use of computers by terrorists, the
destruction of records in the World Trade Tower disaster,
the general impermanence and volatility of computer
stored data, the disappearance of the National Park
Service website make it clear that permanent paper
records and books still have a very important role to play
in history and in society. Until e-books are cheaper,
more inclusive in the titles they purvey, and a lot easier
to use, they will not replace books. The major break
through for e-books will come when students download
all their text and work books in a single cheap, simple,
device and throw away their backpacks. Even when that
day dawns, as I am sure it will, books will remain viable
because there is no profit to be made from converting
old books into new technology just ask the failed
Netlibrary. As everyone knows in this techno-age, profits
drive products and if libraries do not preserve our soci
ety’s culture no one else will. Remember, books were the
first solid-state, random-access memory device and
remain effective; they also don’t fail when the lights go
out.
So even at the advancing age of seventy-five the Library
stands ready to move into the 21st Century. Our staff is
trained and prepared, the formats and media are chang
ing daily, the Library will respond as it has always
responded; with hands-on personal service for our resi
dents in a professional, intelligent and literary manner.
It has been an exciting seventy-five years for libraries
and the next seventy-five will be even more so. Libraries
really are the leaders in information age technology.
Come on in and check us out!

John A. Anderson Retires
from Library Board
After twenty- four
years of service, John
Anderson has moved
to Wauconda. He was
a Deerfield resident
for thirty- four years.
vr
First elected in 1977
and reelected in four
subsequent elections, Anderson’s
term spanned the period from when
the library was new all the way
through the recent renovations. He
provided leadership for two library
directors: Suzanne Whetstone and
Jack Hicks. A multi-faceted man,
Anderson was a strong advocate of
freedom of speech, access by all
residents to all forms of information
and of library literacy. He pressed
for renovation and the new comput
er system and he was instrumental
in bringing videos and other AV for
mats to the library. He said, “Many
problems were solved during my
tenure. I was glad to have been able
to contribute to this great library.”

Three Board
Members Elected
Jeffrey Blumenthal, Donald Van
Arsdale and David Wolff were elected
to serve on the Deerfield Library Board
of Trustees at the April 3 Village of

ously served on the board. David Wolff
has been a board member for 12 years and held the office of secretary. Blumenthal had
been appointed last year. Both Blumenthal and Wolff will serve six year terms. Van
Arsdale served on the Board in 1994, and will fill the remaining four year term of Yvonne
Sharpe who resigned to move to Riverwoods. All three newly elected trustees are strong
library users and supporters.
The Deerfield Library Board of Trustees holds open meetings the third Wednesday of
every month at 8 p.m.

Joan Bairstow, right, Deerfield Library
Head of Circulation, gladly implemented
the board’s new video policy suggested by
Deerfield student Matt Tick, at left.
Matt Tick, Deerfield High School stu
dent, made a presentation to the library
Board of Trustees, and the Board respond

states that when a parental permission
release form is on file in the library, juve
nile patrons may borrow video/DVD mate
rials on their own cards. Parents must give
the permission in person, and must assume
full responsibility for return, damage, fees
or fines for materials loaned under the pol
icy. The library is held harmless from the
loan of any material. Policies and permis
sion slips are available at the front desk.

�Across the Librarian’s Desk
The retirement of John Anderson from the
Library Board after twenty-four years of service
caused me to reflect on the fine board mem
bers who have served this library in the years
since the library was built. Many, like
Rosemary Sazonoff, were Deerfield stalwarts;
many were not known by the public but made
strong contributions to this library benefiting
the residents and the staff.
John was not the longest serving board member of memory. That
honor would go to former Board President Tom Parfitt, with current
President Sue Benn right behind in length of service. It is hard to sin
gle out individuals but some do stand out. Longtime Treasurer Tony
Sabato, who passed away last winter, taught me all I know about tax
levies and public finance. Rosemary Sazonoff taught me the power of
the press; Wilbur Page taught me respect for the physical plant and
how to take care of it. Sue Benn, especially, has shepherded me
through all our renovation projects for the past eight years and I owe
her more than I can tell. It is with sadness that we note the death of
former Board Member Charlene Reich in early May; she served with
distinction.
Currently the library has a mix of old and new board members. Sue
Benn brings over twenty years experience to the table, David Wolff
twelve years. Our younger members Don Van Arsdale, Sunday Mueller,
Jeff Blumenthal and Ken Abosch bring a renewed sense of energy and
enthusiasm as we look forward to long range planning and needed
community assessment to prepare ourselves for the future. Bill Seiden
has agreed to fill John Anderson’s position on an interim basis. This
board truly reflects the residents of Deerfield and will be a great asset
as we move into the reality of the information age.
As if we needed proof that it is indeed a small world we live in,
this spring Bill Seiden, current President of the North Suburban Library
System Board, and I were in Washington, D.C. for the American Library
Association’s Legislative Day. At the debriefing session held after a
long day on Capitol Hill I chanced to look over at one of our fellow
library advocates. I asked him immediately if he was the Don McCurry
who served so ably on the Deerfield Public Library Board twenty years
ago. Don’s reponse was, “How in the world did you know that?” It was
easy. Don had been a great board member. He had made strong contri
butions to the library, and had make a lasting impression. He was in
Washington as a board member of the Northern Illinois Library System
headquartered in Rockford. It seems Don has been involved in library
service for many years.
At this point it finally occurred to me that as boards have a
tremendous impact on their libraries, so do libraries have a lasting
effect on the board members themselves. It was a fine moment when I
introduced a current board member to one from many, many years ago.
Past and present became one, leading me to feel confident about this
library’s future.

Across the Librarian's Dest^
On Sunday, April 5th, the Library
will celebrate its 65th birthday. We
will do this symbolically on the first
day of National Library Week. We
will have bands and ice cream and
music, but the real celebration will be
the recognition of the people who
have made us the exemplary library
we are today. I know there are a lot of
people to thank.
We know many of the people we
want to thank during the recognition
part of our celebration: Bob York, Tom
Parfitt, Mary Mazur, Pat Horne and
Keith Nickoley, are the easy names.
What we really need help with is all
the names of all the people who
helped pass out handbills, held coffee
hours, spoke at schools — those who
worked tirelessly behind the scenes to
pass the numerous referendums, bond
issues, special legislation and court
challenges that built this Library.
It is often forgotten that this Li
brary has had a long and colorful his
tory full of wonderful personalities
and issues. We have seen numerous
tax fights, boundary squabbles, cen
sorship battles, "Save Our Library "
campaigns, along with agitated re
former candidates. The present build
ing and the services we offer did not
just happen — they were the result of
long, hard work by many concerned
and visionary residents. The Library
has withstood the test of time.
If you know the names of those
who made this Library possible,
please take the time to write them
down and let me know what they did
— large and small — because every
one is important. We want to

recognize them in an appropriate way
on our 65th birthday. The Library is 65
years old and they made it happen.
We owe a debt of gratitude to those
head Librarians who founded, nur
tured, and developed the Deerfield
Public Library. Starting in 1927 and
progressing to today there have been:
Mrs. Frank Russo, Mrs. Chester Wolf
— for over 25 years, Mrs. Helen
Haney, and the builder of this Library,
Mrs. Suzanne Whetstone. They estab
lished a Library that serves the com
munity well and is a source of great
pride.
We also want to take time to ac
knowledge the lasting contribution
made to this community by a single
individual. The Library will name its
Young People's Department in honor
of Dr. Diego Redondo. Since Dr. Re
dondo touched and enriched the lives
of so many of us — especially our
children — it is fitting to create a per
manent memorial for him. We will
dedicate the Department in his honor
during our Birthday celebration.
Please let me know those names,
and please come to our Party. You'll
come for the nostalgia, but stay for the
fun.

PUBLIC LIBRARY
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield, IL 60015
Summer 1989
Vol. 4 No. 3
Sazonoff and Wolff Win Board Seats
Sir Isaac Newton is reported to have
said near the end of his life that he seemed
to have been like a mere boy, playing on
the seashore and diverting himself now
and then by finding a smoother pebble or a
prettier shell than ordinary, while the great
ocean of truth lay undiscovered before
him. That’s the way it is for me and many
librarians: shelves of books that span dis
tance, the ages, and all human thought, but
are really a great ocean of truth just wailing
there to be discovered.
In this month’s column it is a privilege
to recommend two local authors, each
with intensely personal insights but with
totally different styles and genres. It is ex
citing to find a gem of a book, or an author
you previously did not know, and to be
able to tell a friend about your find. This
gets to the heart of why people become lib
rarians in the the first place: reading and
sharing.
One of the Chicago area’s finest writ
ers is Chicago attorney and Deerfield resi
dent Lowell Komie, whose perceptive and
revealing short stories about lawyers have
been critically acclaimed. I recommend
reading The Judge's Chamber and Other
Stories, a collection previously published
by the American Bar Association as its
first work of fiction. The style and wit of
this book make it something very special
to recommend to friends.
The other area writer is Harold Gershowitz, a Northbrook resident and busi
ness executive whose first novel has sold
over 350,000 copies and received the
Friends of Literature Award for Fiction.
Remember This Dream is a thirty-year
chronicle told through the eyes of two sis
ters, one who emigrates to America while
the other stays in Poland. The British equi
valent of the Book-of-the-Month Club has
acquired rights for its hardcover publica
tion.
Have a good Summer; we have an ex
citing summer reading program for chil
dren, lots of new books, programs for
adults, and a great Fall ahead.
Jack Alan Hicks
Administrative Librarian
The “ffs” won it on April 4. Rosemary
Sazonoff and David Wolff were each elected
to six-year terms as trustees of the Deerfield
Library Board.
Sazonoff has been a Deerfield resident for
32 years and a library board member for 13
years. To her, books and libraries are very
precious. She recalls volunteering at the
Deerfield Library when it was in a storefront. A feature writer for the Lemer Newspap
ers, she has been involved in numerous Deerfield community groups. “I am delighted to
have the opportunity to help the library move ahead. 1 ran for office because times are
changing and I feel I can offer continuity to the board.
Wolff, a manufacturers’ representative for five metal fabricating companies, has
lived in Deerfield for 17 years and has been active with the Deerfield Community Con
cert Band and Big Band Sound of Deerfield. An active library user, he also looks forward
to working with the board and staff toward continued growth “of one of the best modem
suburban libraries in the state.” He hopes to become to involved with the North Subur
ban Library System and “to show the adults and children how easy it is to unlock the sec
>*
rets of the past at the library, as these are the keys to the future.
Nonresident
Fees Increase
The Deerfield Library Board of Directors approved a $125 fee for nonresident
library cards effective May 1, 1989.
Heretofore the fee was $100. Fees, Pai
annually, cover library service for all family members.
Last year 177 families held non resident library cards. They live in Ban
nockburn, Riverwoods, and unincorpo
rated Deerfield.
The Illinois Secretary of State requires
all public libraries that provide nonresi
dent library service to charge a fee that is
equivalent to the average cost a resident
pays in taxes to support the library. The
state provides the formula to the library.
The boundaries of service for the Deer
field Public Library are the same as the
Village limits of Deerfield. These bound
aries are not related to U.S. Post Office
ZIP codes or the limits of West Deerfield
Township.

of service as Head of Maintenance. Oftcr^^
referred to as the “heart of the library,
Ken was always there when needed and
usually cheered the staff with a song as the
day began! He will be missed!
Peggy McCabe To Retire
Peggy McCabe
After twenty years at the library. . .
“On a dark and stormy night in London, England, I was born,” said Peggy McCabe,
Deerfield’s well known Reader Services’ Librarian.
Actually, it wasn’t really dark and stormy but it was London*. After 20 years of
selecting fiction for the Deerfield Library, Peggy likes to fantasize! Her Scottish father,
a golf professional, and English mother, settled in Deerfield many years ago, but later
moved to Crystal Lake. Coincidentally, Peggy and her husband also moved to Deerfield
30 years ago. She has lived here ever since.
After graduation from Lake Forest College, Peggy taught English at the college. She
later received a Master’s Degree in Library Science from Rosary College. In 1969, to
fulfill terms of a scholarship awarded by the state, she began a two-year stint at Deerfield
Public Library. However, when her husband died at 45, she began a library career that
stretched to 20 years.
In those days the library was located in what is now the City Hall Annex and she was
the only adult librarian working with Administrative Librarian Suzanne Whetstone.
Peggy’s title changed several times and her duties were many: reference work, fiction
selection, programming, service to the Blind & Physically Handicapped, and even a shot
at cataloging. In the early days there were only books; she built the record/cassette col
lection, as well as the large print and talking books collection. She has particularly en
joyed the reference work.
“The library has grown tremendously during the time Peggy has been here” said
Jack Hicks. Administrative Librarian, “and Peggy was instrumental in much of that
growth. Her imprint is on our building, our collection, and our services; she has given
much of herself and her talents”.
Peggy’s sons, Dennis, 38, and Phillip, 35 live in the Sunbelt, but she cannot imagine
leaving Deerfield: “the 110 school district, boys’ baseball, A.A.U.W., high school
teams, and all the people; I love the North Shore, no matter the weather.” She looks for
ward to blocks of leisure time to pursue her many interests including travel, antiques,
stamp collecting, a house that needs attention . . . and READING NON FICTION!
*On Friday, July 14 at 3 p.m. an English Tea will be held in honor of Peggy
McCabe. The Deerfield community is invited to attend.

Hicks Stresses
Community Service
Jack Hicks, formerly Head of the
Reference Department, Deerfield Public
Library, was appointed administrative
librarian effective August 1.
He succeeds Suzanne Whetstone who
served as administrative librarian for the
past twenty years. Mrs. Whetstone has
moved to South Bend, Indiana.
Hicks, who is well known and respected
in the Deerfield community, has a strong
commitment to public service and plans to
maintain the library’s fine tradition in the
community. He hopes to improve the
quality of service by adding more
materials, providing access to those
materials, and making best use of
technological advancements available to
libraries. He also wants to emphasize staff
training and “the human touch’’ in delivery
of service and materials.
Always enjoying his contact with the
public at the Reference Desk, Hicks has
pioneered in offering patrons and teaching
(other North Suburban Librarians) online
information retrieval service. Deerfield
was among the first libraries in the nation
to offer searches to patrons at no charge. He
says that the key to online searching is
using it as a standard service, as any other
reference tool.
Jack Hicks
Jack Hicks has lived in Deerfield for 16
years and has been Head of Reference since
1976. He is active in the American Library
Association, Illinois Library Association,
and Midwest Federated Library Associa
tion. He made presentations to the latter two
this spring, about Deerfield Library’s
bibliographic instruction to Wilmot Junior
High students. A paper on this topic has
been prepared by Hicks and teacher
Geraldine Spinella for the November issue
of “Illinois Libraries.’’
Hicks received his B.A. degree from
Hamline University, St. Paul, Minn, and
his Masters degree in Library Science from
Rosary College. He has also served as
Church Librarian at Deerfield’s St.
Gregory’s Church. His wife Donna is Head
of Reader Services at Northbrook Public
Library and they have two daughters,
Maren and Sarah.

* % Virgins, Whores and Other Women: Im
ages of Women in Mystery
Paretsky has created a new genre of
female detective stories about a hard
boiled private eye, V.l. Warshawski.
Warshawski comes straight out of the
Dashell Hammett-Raymond Chandler
tradition; a loner with a soft spot for the
underdog, a fierce belief injustice if not the
law, enough stubborn courage to ignore
threats from the mob, and an uneasy
relationship with the local constabulary
according to reviewer Joanna Krotz. This
fictional detective lives in Chicago near
Halsted.
In the past 16 years, Paretsky has had five
books and five short stories published. She
has also won several awards. The books in
clude Bitter Medicine, Killing Orders,
Deadlock and Indemnity Only. Her newest
mystei7, Blood Shot, due out this fall is
a main selection of the Mystery Guild
and alternate selection of three other
book clubs. It has already received high
acclaim.
This popular author of suspense holds a
BA from the University of Kansas and a
PhD in history from the University of
Chicago. Blood Shot will be reviewed at a
library program by Virginia Carter at 11
a.m. Oct. 19. Reservations will be required
for the afternoon Paretsky event.

BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
Summer 1988
Vol. 3, No. 2
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield, IL 60015
Executive Librarian Retires This Summer
When Suzanne Whetstone, Ad
ministrative Librarian, came to Deerfield
Public Library 20 years ago, the library oc
cupied one half of what is now the City Hall
Annex, encompassing 3447 square feet and
containing 25,600 books.
Now planning to retire in early August,
she leaves a fully automated, active,
modem library of 32,000 square feet and
125,350 library items (books, records,
tapes, etc.) Circulation of 230,710 in 1987
is very high compared to the collection size.
She has supervised every detail of this
evolution.
“My first three years at Deerfield were
so hectic I didn’t think I'd survive,” she
chuckled. A building consultant had just
completed a survey of requirements for a
new library, and her task was to follow
through. She interviewed architects, helped
design the new library before there was
even a site, worked with the board and
community committee to pass the required
referendum and, with the board, planned
the exterior work, furniture and equipment.
It was also a “terrific undertaking” to weed
and build the collection as well as develop
ordering procedures. With a competent
staff, she revised the card catalog. The
reference department at that time consisted
solely of encyclopedias, and reference ser
vice as we know it today had not
commenced.
Mrs. Whetstone’s biggest thrill was
opening day at the new library, 920
Waukegan, on October 3, 1971. “People
couldn't believe it when we opened the
doors for the first time,” she said. “One of
my greatest joys was when one member of
the community who had opposed the
building, said it was the best thing that ever
happened to Deerfield.
As libraries nationwide evolved into
more than just books, so did Deerfield.
Records, interlibrary loan service,
reciprocal borrowing, prints, tapes, puzzles
and programs were offered. Development
of the collection was guided by the interests
of the community. In 1974, the library
pioneered by installing a computer in the
reference department for online informa
tion retrieval.
Heading toward automation, the long
*i
process of circulation and the catalog “go
ing online” began in 1980, in cooperation
with three other area libraries. The project
was a tremendous one requiring establish
ment of a computer center and staff (at
Skokie). Deerfield staff worked on many
new special projects, giving more than was
normally required in their jobs. “The staff
has always been good about pilch-ing in and
I must thank them all.” Circulation went
online a year ago. “That day was anticlimatic. We didn't know how the public
would take to it and worse than that the
computer was down until the last minute!
recalled Mrs. Whetstone.
Directing a public library is like running
a business, according to Mrs. Whetstone.
“Acting as technical adviser, solving pro
blems, hiring staff and enabling them to do
their jobs are not the basics you learn in
library school.”
Greeting visitors to Deerfield Public
Library has been another duty of the Ad
ministrative Librarian. While all sorts of
library patrons and a few unwanted
members of the animal world have visited,
the most prestigious guest in the past 20
years has been Nancy Reagan. At the
library for a panel discussion with members
of the Deerfield Citizens for Drug
Awareness, Mrs. Reagan caused a stir of
tv and news reporters and secret service
men. The intricacies of this event and play
ing hostess to the president’s wife were
among the highlights of Mrs. Whetstone’s
administration.
Mrs. Whetstone has particularly enjoyed
the family feeling that exists among the
staff. “It’s a fine staff and a close staff and
we’ve been through a lot of good and bad
together.” Working with an excellent
library board, she praises Thomas Parfitt
who has been president throughout most of
her Deerfield career. She has also enjoyed
working with other North Suburban library
administrators with whom she shared ideas
and problems. Active in the American
Library Association, and the North Subur
ban Library System's administrative library
board, Mrs. Whetstone feels she will pro
bably continue to be involved
with libraries and community service in the
coming years. She plans to move to South
1f
SUSAN WHETSTONE
Bend, Indiana.
A native of River Forest, IL, Mrs.
Whetstone received her Masters Degree in
Library Science from Rosary College. She
was Head of the Humanities Reference
Department at the University of Notre
Dame before coming to Deerfield.
‘ ‘As a whole, the community appreciates
the Deerfield Library. It is now time for
someone else with new and fresh ideas,”
said Mrs. Whetstone. A committee of the
Board is presently conducting a national
search for a new administrative librarian
and hopes to have one in place by fall.

f
�Library Rates High
In Citizen Survey
Results arc in! The community sees the
library in a positive light.
Last September, the Library Research
Center of the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign conducted a citizen
survey for Deerfield Public Library. They
questioned use of the library, frequency and
major purposes for use, services of the
library, and barriers to use.
Of those residents randomly selected to
answer the survey questionnaire, 46.1 % or
461 persons completed and returned the
questionnaire. An unusually high per cent:
93% of respondents had used Deerfield
Library in the past year. Reading for leisure
was indicated by 52.9% as the most impor
tant purpose for visiting the library. 18.4%
used the library for work needs, and 12.2%
for school needs. The remaining 16.5%
used for other purposes, i.e. audio/visual
materials, bringing children, etc.
The typical respondent visited the library
between 12 and 51 times per year and read
one book per month or less. Library users
gave the library a favorable overall rating
as indicated in the following exerpt from
survey results:
“In general, how would you rate the services (facilities, collections, programs,
assistance by staff, etc.) of the Deerfield
Public Library?
Above average
292/63.9%
Average........
131/28.7%
Below Average
. .10/2.2%
Don’t Know . .
. .24/5.3%
TOTAL..........
.457/100%
A list of individual services also re
ceived favorable ratings.
Examination of reasons for lack of use of
the library showed such personal barriers
as “lack of time” and “no need for library
services” to be most influential. Barriers
under the control of the library such as
parking, hours and location accounted for
only a small amount of lack of use.
An unusually high percent of respondents
who were library users were college
educated (90%) and nearly 40% had done
post graduate work. Respondents were
predominantly managers and professionals
(45.4%) or homemakers (24.9%).
A citizen survey is conducted every five
years to provide the library administrator,
board and staff with information about the
community that is needed to make informed
decisions about programs and services.
For Adults!
Devour A Book and Your Lunch Too
at Library Summer Book Reviews!
Virginia Carter, Deerfield resident, will present a series of book reviews with dramatiza
tions at the library, on Wednesday mornings, June 22, July 6 and July 20 at 11 a.m. Mrs.
Carter, active in many local organizations, has taught school and worked in community
theater.
For the informal book presentations, the library will provide a beverage, and those who
attend are welcome to bring a brown bag lunch. Mrs. Carter promises an exciting look and
some sound effects that will make three fascinating books of our time come alive. For those
who wish to borrow the books in advance, the library will have copies available. If young
mothers wish to escape into the world of fiction by attending the series, the Youth Services
Department will provide library activities from 11 a.m. to noon for preschool age children.
The books to be reviewed will be:
June 22: A Perfect Spy, another John LeCarre blockbuster novel by the author of The
Spy Who Came in From the Cold. This is much more than intriguing espionage. It entails
an entire lifetime of influences on a human personality. Magnus Pym is a shameful traitor,
but also a lovable, charming, admired diplomat, husband and father. He manages to betray
the British Intelligence community for three decades but at last they are on to him. What
will he do?
July 6: Prince of Tides, by Pat Conroy—A powerful novel of a southern family with
a beautiful, social climbing mother and a violent father. One son tells their story as he goes
to New York to seek help for his suicidal sister. A scintillating best seller, it is told with
insight, compassion and humor.
July 20: Cold Sassy Tree, by Olive Ann Burns was called “no less than brilliant" by
the Boston Globe. Cold Sassy, Georgia, never a whirlpool of excitement, takes a scandalous
turn when widower, E. Rucker Blakeslee, a well to do merchant, elopes with his milliner,
half his age and a Yankee! This is a delicious story told through the eyes of an adolescent boy.
Plan to attend the series by registering in advance at the library, 945-3311.
Book Not In Deerfield? We’ll Borrow
There are two North Suburban Library
System (NSLS) services the library pro
vides when a patron needs books,
periodical articles or some other materials
not owned by Deerfield Public Library.
One is interlibrary loan. With our GEAC
Computer Catalogs, there are two in
terlibrary loan options. If the needed
material is owned by one of the other three
libraries in our GEAC consortium (Skokie,
Waukegan, Morton Grove), we can order
it by using the computer and the patron’s
library card number.
If it is not owned by a library in our
GEAC consortium, an order is sent to the
North Suburban office. All North Suburban
libraries, cooperative library systems and
the Illinois Library and Information Net-
work are used for interlibrary loan service.
Magazines, newspapers, annuals,
government reports, and other
periodical/serial materials not owned by
Deerfield Library can be borrowed through
the Central Serials Service. For rush situa
tions, the library’s FAX machine can send
and receive articles from Central Serials
and from other area libraries.
You must have a Deerfield Library card
to request interlibrary loan, and orders are
limited to five at a time. All photocopying
is subject to copyright law.
Both interlibrary loan and Central Serials
Service arc intended to supplement the
holdings of Deerfield Library and to extend
services to library patrons.

Adult Programs
Review
Thanks to all Deerfield residents who at
tended the Adult library programs mid
November to mid April. A variety of 15
major programs were held and the atten
dance for most programs was favorable. A
total of 475 people attended, some of whom
were visiting the library for the first time.
The most popular programs were the art
lecture on the Courtauld Collection,
Choices for a Richer Life, and Dealing with
Difficult People. The “homemaking” pro
grams on preparing for company at holiday
time and home decorating were fourth and
fifth in popularity.
During the summer, adult programming
will be lighter. A late morning book review
series is featured (see article). An exciting
line-up is in the planning stages for fall:
look fora visit from a very popular and well
known Chicago mystery writer and a morn
ing Great Books course among others.
Programs are evaluated regularly, and
aimed at social, educational and recrea
tional community interests. For program
suggestions and cooperative programs with
other community organizations, contact
Sally Brickman at the library.

COURTAULD ART PREVIEW IS DECEMBER 7
As a special holiday treat, the
Deerfield Public Library will
present a preview slide/lecture
showing of the Impressionist and
Post-Impressionist Masterpieces:
The Courtauld Collection. The
presentation will begin at 7:30
p.m. Monday, December 7 in the
Eleanore T. Dawe Room.
Through the eyes of the artists,
Lee Gibbs will present many
views of 19th century French
life with a humanistic as well as
artistic approach. The artists
specialized in animation and
flux, illuminating shadows,
heightening colors and catching
the moment. Their brushstrokes
became mist, sparkle, shimmer
and brightness.
The collection, one of the
world’s most outstanding, is on
special loan until Jan. 3 to the
Art Institute of Chicago, from
the University of London’s
Courtauld Institute. It contains
many of the most important
French paintings of the period
from 1870 to 1910. The 48
selected paintings on view
include best known and beloved
works by Manet, Degas, Monet,
Renoir, Cezanne, Seurat,
VanGogh, Gauguin, and
Toulouse Lautrec among many
others.
Lee Gibbs, guest lecturer, is a
world traveled lecturer and
photographer and contains an
enthusiasm for her subject that
has gained her a sple.ndid
reputation in the Chicago area.
This event is free and open to
the public, but reservations are
requested. To reserve space,
please notify the Circulation
Desk, 945-3311.
LIBRARY/SCHOOL COOPERATION
IS WINNING IDEA
Jack Hicks, Head of the
Reference Dept., Deerfield
Public Library, and Gerri
Spinella, Language Arts teacher
at Wilmot Junior High, District
109, co-present a program at this
years’ Midwest Federation of
Library Associations Convention
in Indianapolis. Their program,
Library Instruction for Junior
High Students, was selected as a
unique example of cooperation
between two diverse community
organizations.
For the past seven years
Deerfield Public Library and
Wilmot Jr. High have conducted
a joint research skills program.
What started out on a casual
basis has grown into a significant
learning experience for the 8th
Grade students from Wilmot Jr.
High. Librarians and teachers
alike are enthusiastic about the
success of the project, which in
the past year was nominated as a
“Winning Curriculum Idea” by
the National Association of
Professional Educators.
Students are instructed in the
use of library reference
materials, the research process,
and the compiling of
bibliographies. The goal of the
projects is to increase the
students’ library skills, assure
success instead of frustration
when the student confronts
research for the first time,

PROGRAM SCHEDULE
FOR THE NEW YEAR!
Mark calendars now for some
enlightening, free programs
scheduled for 1988 at Deerfield
Public Library. All programs
except Sunday begin at 7:30
p.m. and focus on YOU!
MONDAY, JANUARY 11 CHOICES FOR A RICHER
LIFE
“It’s great to have a genie to
press magic buttons, but it is
better to be your own genie;get
rid of the indecision, doubt and
fear. A richer life is a state of
mind’’ says Linda Fallucca,
Ph.D. Her 23 years as a
psychotherapist with intuitive
abilities will bring a unique
understanding to how we can
use our own intuition to make
posi tive* choices. We CAN
control our thoughts, attitudes,
actions and beliefs to choose a
richer life.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20 “NIPS, TUCKS AND YOU”
If the January blahs lead you to
begin thinking about tummy
tucks, face lifts, or other ways to
look and feel better, Cosmetic
Surgeon Steven Bloch of
Highland Park Hospital will offer
some of the pros and cons at this
evening meeting. Come take a
peek at some before and after
photos, and consider the
possibilities. The doctor will
focus on how it all affects you.
SUNDAY, JANUARY 24
This is a special event that
launches our new year at the
library and promises to be a
pretty terrific afternoon for the
whole family. Information will
be available in January.
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 LOOK MA! NO CAVITIES!
NO BRACES! NO SPACES!
Mark Cannon specializes in
dentristy for children (up to age
21) and will offer an insight for
parents about “when to do
what” to prevent tooth decay,
bite problems, ear infections,
etc. Expense, agony and time in
the dental chair can be avoided.
A friendly dentist, whose private
practice is in Long Grove,
Cannon is associated with a
number of area hospitals
including Highland Park,
Children’s Memorial and Good
Shepherd. He will put animation
and important knowledge into
his presentation and offer
practical help that will make for
healthier growing up years.
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10 I THOUGHT MY TAXES WERE
GOING DOWN! WHAT CAN I
DO NOW?
Just named by Money Magazine
as one of America’s best tax
practitioners, Gary S. Hart, a
Deerfield resident, offers the
inside information on preparing
1987 tax returns and planning
for 1988. Hart, a CPA and
president of Gary Hart &
Associates, Ltd. in Chicago, will
discuss: finding hidden
deductions, what to do about
your IRA, structuring your loan
portfolio and avoiding tax
penalties.
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23 NEPAL ADVENTURE
Trekking season is almost upon
us and before guide Jim
Crosswhite leaves for Nepal he
visits Deerfield to take us on an
“armchair” ride to Nepal in the
Himalayas to trek the highest
mountain on Earth. Crosswhite
has trekked for months in Nepal,
rafted its rivers, and tracked
rhino on foot all within the
shadow of Mt. Everest. You’ll
view it all here in the library.
FROM THE EXECUTIVE
LIBRARIAN......
Noreen Curulewski had been
here almost twenty years as
Head of Circulation when she
retired in September to a new
home in California with her
husband Frank.
Always optimistic and cheerful,
she was liked by staff and
patrons alike. She was here when
I came. Together we experienced
a referendum, a building
program, a move, expansion, and
the introduction of automation - - and those are just the
highlights!
She inspired great loyalty on the
part of her staff, and always gave
one hundred percent of herself
to whatever needed to be done.
We wish her the best of
everything and hope that she’ll
keep us posted on what’s going
on in her new life.

WHAT DR. RUTH FORGOT
TO TELL YOU: THE FACTS
On Tuesday, December 1,
Highland Park Hospital
obstetrician-gynecologist Doctor
Michael Benson will give a talk
at the library on basic sex facts.
He will review fertility,
contraception, sexually
transmitted diseases, and sexual
behavior. Dr. Benson says that
most adults in the United States
do not know the fertile time in a
woman’s menstrual cycle.
Sexually transmitted diseases are
becoming epidemic and teen
pregnancy rate in this country is
the highest in the developed
world. Despite all of the media
exposure, there are still
misunderstandings. A question
and answer session follows his
presentation which is open to
the public and begins at 7:30
p.m.
�STAFF APPOINTMENTS
Pat Palmer has been promoted
to Circulation Supervisor. She is
a Deerfield resident, with five
children, who has been
Circulation Clerk at the library
for three years.
Sally Brickman has been
appointed Director of Public
Relations and Programming. She
will also assist at the Reference
Desk. A native Clevelander, she
holds a Master’s Degree in
Library Science from Case
Western Reserve University and
has worked as a librarian in
school, academic and public
libraries. For ten years she was
Editor/ Publicist at Case Western
Reserve University Libraries
specializing in library public
relations. An active member of
the American Library
Association, she was elected
chair of the executive committee
of the 2000 member Public
Relations Section and has led
many of its committees. Most
recently she was Public
Information Officer at the
Center for Research Libraries in
Chicago. She is particularly
proud of her two sons, ages 24
and 26.
