What’s the best way to receive DPL updates?
Subscribe to our e-news at deerfieldlibrary.org/newsletters
�From the Director
In 2020, DPL had the opportunity to
introduce some new services. Curbside
service was one of the best things that
came from 2020! In a very short time, we
had over 10,000 items checked out and
picked up using this brand new service.
Our resourceful staff continue to provide
this service, alternating with when the
building is open for browsing. If you
haven’t experienced curbside, you can find more information
at deerfieldlibrary.org/curbside-pickup.
Staff also learned that with modern technology, we can
work with patrons remotely to complete simple tasks such
as renewing library cards or even issuing new cards. Once a
patron completes the online form, a Patron Services staff
member will call to set up a virtual appointment. After the
process is complete, we can provide the card number for
immediate use of our electronic resources, and the physical
card is sent out via the mail. Find details and the application
form at deerfieldlibrary.org/patron-registration.
The pandemic left many people feeling isolated and
disconnected, and many senior citizens and persons with
disabilities lost critical social and educational lifelines. With
that in mind, soon after closing in 2020, we began offering
the Library Lifeline service for free one-on-ones and checkins. These are provided via phone, email, or a virtual platform.
We average about 20-25 monthly appointments, and plan to
continue this popular service. Read more about the Library
Lifeline at deerfieldlibrary.org/accessibility.
Finally, we saw a huge increase in program attendance. We
always knew that the community loved our programs and this
past year has affirmed that. Our staff learned quickly how to
offer virtual programs for patrons of all ages. In 2020, nearly
100,000 people attended a program either live online or
watched a pre-recorded program.
We continue to move forward and look forward to continuing
to serve our community.
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director

�Discover Deerfield: Local History Tours
If “staycation” travel looks to be your focus for summer 2021, let the Deerfield Public
Library serve as your travel guide. The Library-curated tours, which cover Deerfield
from its founding days to the present, can all be accessed on the Library’s website at
deerfieldlibrary.org/localtours. Guide maps and tour information also available
at the Library (lower level).
Deerfield Public Art Audio and Virtual Tours
Our guided walking tour explores the
sculptures and paintings publicly on display in
Deerfield. You can download the guide map,
and using along with the audio tour, take your
own self-guided tour. Allow approximately 35
minutes to complete the tour. Another tour
option is the 360 video tour, which includes a
condensed version of the audio tour, original interviews, and historic photos. Note: The art
tour was created in 2017. Updates coming soon.
Deerfield Cemetery Tour
The Library, in cooperation with the Deerfield
Cemetery Commission created two historical “inside
the gates” self-guided audio tours. The Cemetery is the
resting place of some of the first residents of Deerfield,
and is an engaging way to learn about the history of
Deerfield. The Veterans Tour includes those from every
war from the War of 1812 to Vietnam. The majority
of our veterans are from the Civil War, and all fought for the Union. Additional support for
these tours was provided by the American Legion Post 738 and the Deerfield Area Historical
Society. Please enter and exit through the front gate on Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield Train Station Tour
The historic Deerfield Road Train Station is the only building
in Deerfield on the National Register of Historic Places. But
that only came about through the vigorous advocacy of the
Deerfield Area Historical Society. Access the tour guide on the
website to find out about the building and the engaging history,
including a brief appearance in the movie, Risky Business.

We recently re-opened the MakerSpace for
limited, by appointment only, in-person
sessions. But prior to this, and continuing, the
staff has been working with patrons through
virtual means on a variety of projects.
Full details about the MakerSpace
equipment and use, and access to the
online appointment forms are available at
deerfieldlibrary.org/makerspace. Learn
more about:
• MakerSpace Remote Services: Submit
projects for select equipment using an
online form. Our staff will then work
with you to coordinate dropping off or
purchasing materials, remote virtual
sessions, and project pickup. Virtual
sessions include one-on-one virtual
appointments, design assistance, and
watching your project run.
• Makerspace In-person Services:
Limited, single user sessions by
appointment only, limited to 90 minutes.
Masks are required with additional safety
protocols in place.
• Maker Video Tutorials: Pick up a new
skill with software tutorials created by
DPL staff.
Where to start? A good place would be to
sign up for the Virtual MakerSpace Tour,
Wednesday, June 2, 1:00-2:00 p.m. Bring
your questions for a live Q&A. Registration
is required. Visit the DPL Event Calendar to
register: https://deerfield.libnet.info/events.
Check the Adult and Youth Programs in this
issue for details on more upcoming MakerSpace-centered programs. No experience
needed! All programs will be virtual.
