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 This 60-year reflection was inspired by receipt of new historical documents for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

New Art Gift from our Friends
Artist Reception, February 17
Courtesy of the Friends of the Deerfield Public
Libraiy, a stunning mural now hangs in the central
stairwell as part of the Library’s permanent art
collection. The four-panel mural by Janet Austin,
titled “Prairie Plants”, is made of stone mosaic and
carved ceramic stoneware tiles.
The inspiration for the mural came from a project
Austin worked on with students from Deerfield
High School. In 2010, DHS students participated
in a program with the Chicago Botanic Garden by
creating an outdoor prairie garden at their school.
Austin was hired to help make identification
plaques for the plants in the garden. This led her to
make the “Prairie Plants” panels to identify many
of the native plants and show the importance of
healthy soil.
The mural first came to the Library as part of the
Village of Deerfield Public Art Program, one of 23 pieces selected for
the second year of the program. The participating artists, chosen by juiy
process, agreed to loan theirs works of art for public display for up to
one year. The Library also has on loan pieces by Deerfield artists Anne
Kleinerman, Rita Price, Linda Trytek, and Penny Weinberg.
Please join us for an open house reception on Wednesday, February 17,
4:30-5:30pm to learn more about the project from the artist, and to give
a big “thank you” to our Friends of the Library.

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

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

RENEW,REFRESH,
RECHARGE, REOPEN
Spring is the great season of Renewal. This
year it coincides with the renewal of the
Library building as well. With the
construction project on time and on budget
as I write this in Februaiy, staff members are
already abuzz, planning for the Grand
Reopening scheduled for June. It will be so
rewarding to introduce the remodeled,
transformed, expanded and revitalized
Library to the Deerfield community for the
first time.
During the next few months our staff
members will also prepare to launch the
“new” Library—providing new services,
programs, materials and features to make
your life easier, introduce you to new ideas,
and even inspire you. Hot new technologies
and concepts will coexist with an improved
experience of the more traditional role of the
Library, including cozy corners for reading
and silent study.
While we expect summer’s launch of the new
Library space to be impressive, the Library
will continue to evolve with additional new
services and programs making their debut
throughout the fall, winter, and spring. At any
time, feel free to share your ideas with outstaff members about what more we can do to
make your experience of the Library more
personal and meaningful.
In closing, I want to thank all of you for your
patience while we “camped out” at our
temporary quarters in Cadwell’s Corners. We
felt warmly welcomed there, and the site
worked out great as a small community
library for a short time. Soon, though, it will
be time to restore your Library experience to
its full power.. .and that will be just the
beginning of what comes next.

New and Expanded Library to Cost
Taxpayers Less than Anticipated
In January, the Village of Deerfield sold the remainder of the bonds to fund the
building project. Due to the low and very advantageous interest rates, taxpayers
will be paying about $76-79 each year (based on a home valued at $500,000 at
the time of the referendum) rather than the $88 or so we had estimated for the
2010 referendum. This will be a FLAT RATE, annually, for the next twenty years.
“We are all veiy proud and pleased that we are able to give Deerfield a newly
remodeled and expanded Library for less cost per year than we expected to pay,”
said Ken Abosch, Library Board president. “And, of course, our thanks to the
Village of Deerfield and its AAA bond rating for making the arrangements for
the sale of these bonds on our behalf.”
I DIDN’T KNOW THAT!
We asked staff to give us the inside track on some frequently over-looked and
under-used Library resources. You may be surprised!
Andrew L., Multimedia: “The Teens page on the Library's
website is a great resource. Take a look at Homework Help.
There's infoimation on Tutor.com, plus links to GREAT teen
sites like TeenSpace. Check it out."
Noreen T., Youth Services: “Museum
Adventure Passes are a terrific Library
value. Use your Deerfield card to get a
pass and getfree admission or a special discount at
more than a dozen local museums and attractions."
Ted G., Adult Services: “One of my
favorite online resources is the
Chicago Consumers Checkbook. This is a lot
like Angie's list and rates various local businesses and
contractors. I needed to purchase a new A/C andfurnace and
found a great contractor who gave us a great price by using
this resource. Unfortunately; this is one of thefew that you
can't access it from home. You need to come into the Library
and use one of our computers, but that's a minor
inconvenience when you consider the value. ”
The Library will be closing just before Memorial Day and reopening in our
newly renovated building about a month later in late June.
