Message from the Dii’ector
Building project update
As this newsletter goes to
print, we continue to
evaluate possible sites for
our temporary location,
including creating
preliminary floor plans to
test for suitability, and
exploring lease rates and conditions. Once
the final location is agreed upon and the
lease signed, we will make only the minimal
changes necessary to meet building codes
and make the spaces usable for our
purposes. Nothing fancy! We will also obtain
a special use permit from the Village to
operate the site as a temporary Library.
*r*»;*'m
LAV
Our move from the current building to an
interim site is planned for late spring. Some
meeting room functions and programs will
be curtailed around mid-December, as we
begin packing and preparing for the move.
Be assured that as soon as we know where
we’re going to be, we’ll let the community
know all the details, including—
importantly—how we will continue to
provide great service.
We’re also moving forward with the
renovation of the current Library, including
making final design decisions for the
interior, selecting the color palette with
floor and wall finishes, and creating
construction drawings for the project. We
have selected Mortenson as the
Construction Management firm.
You can follow our progress on our website
and Facebook, or by attending our board
meetings. Please see our website for dates,
times, locations, and prior board meeting
minutes, too.

E-book Collection E-xpands
The demand for e-books is skyrocketing, and we are making
a^ustments to better serve you. For example, we are
dedicating more dollars to extra copies of titles for which
there are long waiting lists, and ONLY Deerfield cardholders
will be eligible for those added copies. This will lessen the
time our patrons spend waiting for a popular e-book. We will
also temporarily adjust our materials budget while we are in
the small temporary space to purchase additional e-books to
meet demand.

Book Discussions
((l LOVED this book!”
December 8,10:30 a.m.
What better way to end the year than by discussing our faves—the books
we read this year that we loved, that we couldn’t put down, the books that
we told our family and friends that they HAD to read? Please come
prepared to talk about the book—or books—that you loved.
Looking ahead, the Library’s book discussions will be taking a hiatus this
winter as we prepare for our move to the temporary location. Please watch
for information about the dates and locations when the book discussions
resume in the spring. If you are interested in participating in an online
book discussion, please contact Melissa at reference@deerfieldlibrary.org.
Ask Us via Text or Instant Message
You can now contact the reference desk via text and instant message (IM), in
addition to phone or email. Text and IM are perfect for resolving quick factoid
spats like who was Harry Truman’s vice president, what was the name of that
book about the circus magicians or answering that last minute question before
book club. Send an instant message straight from our home page or text us at
847-790-4TXT (4898). We look forward to hearing from you—no matter how you
get in touch!
Want the First Season of Bones? Get it All-in-One!
Have you ever looked for the latest season of your favorite show only to find that
disc one was checked out? This fall we started packaging television seasons
together rather than splitting discs into individual cases for checkout, so you
won’t miss an episode! As always, we welcome your feedback about this and any
other changes here at the Library.
Meeting Room News
Our busy meeting rooms are going to be put to a different use while we gear up
for the move to the interim site. Because both the large meeting room and the
lower level conference room need to be dedicated to staging, sorting, and
storage of moving materials, we have reluctantly decided that we won’t be able
to take reservations for meetings held after December 15th.
Our apologies to all the homeowners associations, non-profit, civic and
educational groups, boy scouts, girl scouts and more that keep our meeting
rooms hopping. We’ll look forward to seeing you back in our newly refurbished
meeting space in 2013!

researcher Bill Kiddle, and see what everyday life
was like and how dramatically it would change

reached Deerfield from and about their loved
ones? Join us for an hour that will make this
150th anniversary year local and personal. A
partner program of the Library and the Deerfield
Area Historical Society. □
Who Knows What Evil Lurks
in the Hearts of Men???
If you already know the answer to
that question—or if you want to—
check out the Radio Classics
available as e-audiobooks at the
Library. It’s easy:
1. Go to the Library’s home page
and type in Radio Classics in the Search field.
2. In the Format box on the left side of the page,
click on e-audiobooks.
3. When you make your selection, click on the
information located to the right of the first
arrow underneath the title. It will take you to
My Media mall where you can start
downloading to your computer or other device.
If you need help downloading, stop by the
Reference or Multimedia Desks for help!
�Go Beyond Google
• • •
Sometimes, you just need more information—or you need to be sure that the
information you're getting is accurate, current and reliable—than the
results of an “I’m feeling lucky” Google search. Here are two true stories
featuring websites recommended by ourfully-qualified research
professionals, also known as Reference Libranans!
MedlinePlus
Recently, I had a patron ask for information on diabetes. The patron was just diagnosed
and looking for reliable information but without all the medical jargon. In addition to our
books (located in non-fiction, call #616.462), I introduced the patron to my favorite go-to
place for medical information, medlineplus.gov. I love this site for several reasons. First,
it is specifically written for patients, their families, and friends creating one of the most
easily understood medical information sites out there. Second, it is produced by the
National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health making it one of
the most reliable places to obtain information about diseases, conditions, and other
medical issues.
MedlinePlus has three very helpful sections, “Health Topics”, “Drugs & Supplements” and
“Videos and Cool Tools”. “Health Topics” is like an encyclopedia and provides an overview
of the topic including symptoms, treatments, prevention and much more. The “Drugs &
Supplements” section answers questions about why a medication would be prescribed and
how it should be used. The “Video and Cool Tools” portion offers interactive tutorials and
videos regarding specific topics. After reviewing these segments, the patron was thrilled
with the information we discovered! This resource provided the patron with an easy to
understand explanation of diabetes without dumbing down the information. As a bonus,
the patron felt much more confident about what questions to ask the doctor during the
next visit.
CNET
AARP Tax-Aide Moves to
the Patty Turner Center
AARP Tax-Aide—a free tax help
service the Library has hosted for
many years—will relocate to the
Patty Turner Center as the Library
begins its own relocation to an
interim site. Starting February 3,
IRS certified volunteers for the
AARP will be on hand every
Tuesday and Friday through
April 13 from 1-4 p.m. at the
Patty Turner Center, 375 Elm
Street, 847-9404010. You don’t
need to be an older adult, a member
of the AARP, or the Patty Turner
Center to receive assistance. Please
bring copies of last year’s returns
and all tax forms you receive (W-2s,
1099s, etc.). Please call the Patty
Turner at 847-9404010 starting
Monday, January 30, to make
an appointment.
A patron needed some help choosing a tablet computer. She was going on vacation and
needed something that would allow her to watch a movie on the plane, check her e-mail,
and read an e-book, and it still had to fit in her bag. After taking a look at Consumer
Reports online (available free to Deerfield cardholders on the Library’s website), I
introduced her to CNET.com, a website known for its technology reviews and how-tos. She
watched videos of tablet shopping tips and reviews, compared web speed and battery life
of different models, and read thoughtful reviews from CNET editors. She was able to
search through the list of tablets by price range, manufacturer, screen size, and more. She
found two that she really liked and she was going to see what they looked like in person at
the store. She was a happy camper!
CNET is a great way to stay up-to-date with technology. They review everything from cell
phones to GPS systems to digital cameras. Their video reviews are especially informative,
since they spend time going over the whole device, showing off all the buttons and
demonstrating how it actually works. They also offer a lot of information and advice on
what to purchase and how to use it in your daily life. It’s an interactive website with
videos, podcasts, and more traditional articles. They invite readers to post comments and
suggestions, so there’s plenty of real-world feedback as well. The website can seem a little
busy, with all of the different information they’re sharing, but they do make it easy to
search by category or by reviews, videos, and how-tos. I would definitely recommend this
website to anyone interested in up-to-date tech reviews and information, and especially
for people who get more from watching reviews than reading them.
Toys for Tots
Drop off new, unwrapped toys in the
Toys for Tots collection box in the
Library lobby now through
December 15th. This annual drive,
sponsored by the U.S. Marine Corps
Reserve, has been putting smiles on
the faces of needy youngsters for
over 60 years.. .be a part of it!
Hint: Books make GREAT giftsfor
kids of any age!

�Library Improvement
Plan FAQ
Q: How are “green” practices and
energy-saving features being
incorporated into the Library
Improvement Project?
The Library—staff and Trustees—and
the professionals at PSA Dewberry, are
all committed to making the renovated
building as green as possible. Here’s a
list of items already incorporated in
the plan:
• We will monitor construction
activities for possible pollution in
and around the site.
• Additional green spaces will be
added to the parking lot.
• Many native and drought tolerant
plants will be used in landscaping.
• There will be secure bike racks near
the building to encourage
fewer cars.
• To reduce heat-island effect the roof
has a high solar-reflectance index.
• The interior lighting will be light
harvesting and occupant-sensing.
• Restroom fixtures will be low-flow.
• We will allocate space for increased
recycling.
• Where possible, building products
and finishes will incorporate
recycled materials.
• Where appropriate, building
materials and products will come
from within 500 miles of the site.
• Adhesives, sealants, primers, paints,
etc. will be low in volatile organic
compounds.
• Where possible, flooring and
furnishings will be low-emitting as
well.
• The design team includes LEED
professionals in architecture,
engineering, and interior design.

Across the
Librarian's Desk
r
irst of all, I would like to thank the
voters who supported the Library
referendum. They grasped that a new
library is needed in Deerfield and that it
would be an exciting resource for the whole
community, providing a wider range of
educational, cultural, and information ser
vices to everyone. Also, I would like to thank
Bill Darrow and the Friends of the Library
for their enthusiastic efforts on our behalf.
Secondly, I truly appreciate the thoughtful
endorsement of the Library referendum made
by the editorial staff of the Deerfield Review.
Diverse opinions as shown in the ballot box
are the foundation and the beauty of a
democracy. That’s why the Library chose to
go to the voters to determine if the desire to
expand the Library was reflected in the
community. After three years of planning, we
knew it was important to hear what all the
residents had to say. We had tried our best to
publicize our planning process: we had
articles in every issue of our Browsing
newsletter for the past three years and
numerous articles in the Deerfield Review,
plus our one-thousand-respondent citizen
survey and twelve focus groups. We held a
library open house and provided ample
settings for the community to ask questions.
The next step would have been to hire an
architect and a library consultant to design a
library and produce architectural plans. That
step would, by necessity, have been a very
expensive one. Before that was done, we
needed to know exactly what the residents
were willing to pay for.

25 Years of Cooperation Between the
Deerfield Schools and the Library!
Students’ lack of library know-how led Geri Spinella, (then a language arts teacher,
now assistant principal of Caruso Middle School), to consult with Jack Hicks, (then
a reference librarian, now library director) to begin a joint library instruction
program that has been running for 25 years. The program was designed to bring
students into the public library to learn how to use library resources. Jack Hicks
said, “Our goal was to widen students’ horizons for doing their assignments. We
have many resources that the schools do not have. As Deerfield Library was among
the first libraries in Illinois to
offer new information tech
nology, Geri was anxious for
students to learn new tech
nologies. Also, since we are
open evenings and weekends,
students can come in to use
library materials after school
hours...good value for
Deerfield taxpayers whose
children are in school!”
This program requires hours
of coordination between the
teacher and the librarian, scheduling times, selecting topics, and preparing many
resources. Once here the students also work with the Youth Services and
Circulation Departments. The Library welcomes this opportunity to show young
users what the public library has to offer, particularly online magazine databases
with full-text articles, available for printing or emailing. Also, the students are
pleased to find that, with their library cards, they can use home internet access to
reach the Library’s online databases.
This January and February eight Caruso Middle School classes came into the
Library twice for an hour each time to pursue their personal research projects.
Coordinators were Judy Hortin, Head of Reference, and Caruso language arts
teacher Leslie Gordon. Leslie, who has been with the program for 20 years, said,
“For many of our students, it is an eye opening experience to see how much they
can find in the Library on one topic.”
Both the Library and Caruso hope that this cooperative mission gives students a
skill that will serve them throughout their academic careers and beyond.

continued from page 1
Built in 1970, and not designed for technolo
gy, our building has reached the limits of its
structure. All available space has been used.
Starting in 1991 and ending in 1996, the
Library underwent renovations to maximize
the use of the space potential in the building
and bring it as close as possible to Americans
with Disabilities Act standards. Those
renovations were designed to give the Library ten to fifteen years
added lifespan. The goals of the remodeling have been reached but
can go no further.
Over the past three years, through surveys and resident input we
have heard clearly that our residents want the Library to remain
where it is in the center of town. We have also heard from residents
that they want more services, more meeting room space, more
programs, books and other materials. Currently, we must turn a
sympathetic but deaf ear to these requests.
The result of the vote leaves us with few immediate options other
than to redefine service within the present building. Library staff are
pursuing alternatives for the replacement of the roof membrane, air
handlers, and air conditioning condensers and compressors. These
repairs can mean expensive investment in an aging structure. The
vote also means the closing of the window of opportunity to pur
chase adjacent property for logical expansion. A number of civic
leaders have spoken about the importance of this quadrant remaining
the “governmental” quadrant, but that is now beyond Library control.
Some people have urged me to move heaven and earth to purchase
the apartment building to the north of the Library. Such a move
would break faith with the intentions of the taxpayers and is not one
I will initiate. Though loss of that land limits our future options,
frankly we do not have the resources to purchase that building—that
would take third-party intervention.
This is the first time in thirty-five years we have asked Deerfield
taxpayers to approve a referendum. The Library, in fact, has a
spotless record of operating within budget over those thirty-five
years. Much has been said about the size and cost of our proposed
library. In the past ten years, all over the United States, there has
been a renaissance of library building. At the same time more than
twenty-five libraries have been built in Chicagoland. We are very
familiar with all of this construction and the opportunities it has
brought to their communities.
These new libraries do indeed represent a point of departure over
libraries of the past. The communities that have built new libraries
have observed that in the age of Internet, the need for library service
has not diminished but has grown. Contemporary libraries are techni
cally and structurally complex buildings that are expensive. Add to
that the fact that structural steel and aluminum have risen in price
over 30% in the past year, and the cost of new libraries comes into
perspective.
We will continue to do what we have always done best: address the
needs of the community for the future and keep abreast of emerging
library trends in technology, programs, services, and materials. To
those ends the Board has been working with the Executive Service
Corps to begin work on a strategic plan that will address the future of
this building and user services, all based on progressive professional,
personal service. The Board is committed to providing vision and
leadership to ensure that the Library is not on a trajectory that could
see it fall behind libraries in neighboring communities.
