Starting Time Changes
for Board Meetings
The Deerfield Library Board of
Trustees has been holding open
meetings at 8 p.m. the third
Wednesday of each month.
AS OF JANUARY, 2006,
THESE MEETINGS WILL
BEGIN AT 7 P.M. Notice of all
board meetings, committee meet
ings, or special board meetings
will be posted with an agenda in
the library and the Village Hall
48 hours before a meeting. The
minutes of each board meeting

New Gift Book Policy
The library board recently
approved a newly revised gift
book policy. We welcome mone
tary gifts to purchase library
materials and also accept donated
used books and non-book
current material in good condi
tion. Our professional staff
evaluates gifts using the same
criteria they use for purchased
materials. The library accepts
several categories of gifts: cash
donations, gifts in remembrance
and donations of materials. The
staff will provide written
acknowledgement of gifts if
requested. For details, you may
pick up a copy of the gift policy
at the library.
Mayor Richard M. Daley Praises Libraries
Mayor Daley recently addressed the American Library Association’s annual conference in
Chicago. He said that in 2005 alone, Chicago had seven libraries under construction and 45
built or renovated in the past 16 years. He credits the taxpayers for allowing him to invest in
libraries in the city and increase taxes for libraries.
Libraries are important to the mayor. He said: “I look at libraries as a learning experience.
They are part of the education system. It was never separate. When I became mayor, I said
This is part and parcel of our educational commitment.’ We need libraries. They are just as
important as building police
stations. We are building fire
stations, senior citizen buildings,
schools and libraries because they
become anchors of a community.
&SG?
When somebody sees a library
being built in their community,
what they see is confidence in the
community. The library becomes
part of our economic develop
ment and that’s the key. All of a
sudden new homes go in. People
Deerfield Nursery School students tour the library
and enjoy listening to a story
say, ‘We’re now invested in the
community...
