Amy Simon
Book Fund
The Youth Services Department has
recently purchased three expensive
sets of books from the Amy Simon
Fund. The volumes are: Discovering
Cultures, Cultures of the World and
The Elements. Chris Kopeck, Head of
Youth Services, said “We would not
otherwise be able to purchase these
sets which will help children learn
more about and discover the world
around them”. The fund, established
in Amy’s memory in 1991, is targeted
to “expand our knowledge of the
world and its people”.

Voter Registration
Voters Turn Down Library
Advisory Referendum
The Deerfield Public Library had an advisory referendum on the November 2,2004
Deerfield ballot requesting “bonds in the amount of $25 million be issued for Library
purposes of the Village of Deerfield, in Lake County, Illinois for addition or
construction of a new library building of at least 80,000 sq. ft. including site acquisition,
parking, library materials and technology and related fixtures, furnishing, improvements
and costs”. The final vote tally was 31.43% in favor and 68.57% against.
The staff and board would like to thank all those who supported the library and most
particularly Deerfield resident Bill Darrow and his citizens’ group who worked so hard
to communicate the library’s message. We also greatly appreciated Amie Grahl,
Deerfield Review editor, who gave the library's referendum a wonderful endorsement in
the Pioneer Press on October 21. This was the first time in over 35 years that the library
had gone to the taxpayers for building funds, asking for community support to replace
the present library which has outgrown its 1971 building. More space and equipment
are required to respond to the needs and requests from the Deerfield community. The
library board will continue to plan future library service which the community wants
and deserves.

Jack Hicks and Chris Kopeck
prepare for the 2003 show.
The Library’s Punch and Judy Players will celebrate their 30th birthday with a
performance of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic —Treasure Island - an exciting
tale of pirates Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. (space limited, register
early!) For all ages!
The Library’s puppet theater was built in 1973 by Administrative Librarian Jack
Hicks and was intended to last no longer than two or three years. That first year the
theater was featured as the Library’s float in the Fourth of July Family Days Parade
and was the focus of a summer long puppet workshop for sixth graders in the
Youth Services Department.
What grew out of a $400 gift from the Deerfield Newcomers Club in 1973 has
'M
.1
now lasted 30 years and entertained thousands of children and their parents. Thanks
r t
v
Newcomers.
That first year saw the beginning of a repertoire puppet company—The Punch
and Judy Players—which over the years has staged hundreds of performances. The
plays remain the old standards—Sleeping Beauty, Treasure Island, Rumplestiltskin,
Puss in Boots, Beauty and the Beast, St. George and the Dragon, Pecos Bill, Frog and
Toad, Anansi the Spider, Three Billy Goats Gruff, as well as some written by Library
staff—Dinosaurs in Deerfield and Masters of the Hidden Planet.
The Punch and Judy Players themselves come from all the
Departments in the Library— Jack Hicks and Sally Brickman,
fy?
Administration; Chris Kopeck and Cindy Schilling from Youth Services;
Judy Hortin from Reference Services; Sidney Barnes, Circulation; and
many others over the past 30 years. Our puppets were all designed and
hand sewn by our Staff Artist, Betty Reschke. One of our greatest
rewards comes when young parents relate to us that they saw a perfor
mance at the Library when they were young and they have now brought
their children to see Punch and Judy.
Some people have asked why we still do puppet plays in the age of
video and computer games. Simply because puppets are a counterpoint to
Hollywood and TV. You do not need computers, play stations, Dolby,
Panavision, Rambo, Power Rangers or Bat Man to entertain children and
they get a full and steady dose of that kind of electronic entertainment
elsewhere. We are convinced that puppetry reflects literature, encourages children to read,
and makes the books they have read come alive to them. The puppets are in a child’s
scale, they are a live performance, they stimulate imagination, and they are not seen
elsewhere with any regularity. So, we invite one and all to celebrate 30 years with us as
we perform an old favorite—Treasure Island.

“This Library is Like a Great
Gift in My Life”
J
udging by the Spring, 2003 community survey prepared by the Public Opinion
Laboratory of Northern Illinois University, many area residents share the feeling of
the patron whose comments headline this article.
The POL’s random telephone survey of 1,003 library users found that the library is serv
ing the community well, with a great deal of satisfaction regarding current hours of
operation and high positive ratings. “86% of library users rate Deerfield Library as
“excellent, or very good”. Highest ratings went to a “helpful/knowledgeable staff’.
A very large 85% of respondents were library cardholders and 73% of respondents had
visited the library in the past 12 months.
How do people use the library? Five main reasons include: recreational fiction and non
fiction reading, borrowing videos, utilizing materials and programs, and using the
library reference materials.
The survey also showed that the majority of residents, regardless of length of residency
in the community, responded favorably to expansion and most preferred expansion at
the present location. A space needs study last spring by Anders Dahlgren of Library
Planning Associates found that the library (currently at 31,162 square feet and fully
used), should be 38,600 to 54,000 square feet just to meet the current needs to accom
modate a growing print and non print collection as well as to meet the needs for reader
seats, offices, library programs and story time rooms. Unfortunately vertical expansion
in the present location is complicated and difficult as the building’s roof is not stressed
for the load.
During the summer the POL conducted twelve focus groups for staff, village officials,
kids, parents, seniors, non users, younger childless residents and Riverwoods/
Bannockburn residents.
All of the information culled from the survey and focus groups will become part of a
long range plan to be developed by the library board. A long range planning committee
of the board has already devoted many hours to preparing a documented plan/vision for
the library which will best serve its thousands of users. The survey showed that patrons
see the library’s role as a cultural and intellectual community center of the village with
something to offer everyone; this will be taken into consideration in future planning.
Reference copies of the completed space needs and community survey reports are avail
able to the public at the Library’s Reference Desk.
This online subscription database is avail
able to all, free of charge, on computers in
the Deerfield Library’s Reference
Department. It is also accessible to
Deerfield Library cardholders at home or
work via the library’s website, www.deerfieldlibrary.org (Then click Online
Databases, then Infotrac and be ready to
enter your Deerfield library card number
when asked).

for the body but not good for your books. Many water soaked books come back to us!

items, we can give you a list of everything that is checked out on your library card.
Ask us and we will give you yours!

Bill Brashler
Tory Savage
Wednesday, March 13, 7:30 p.m. Per^feonal finance dynamo and Emmy Award
^^Vinning journalist, Terry Savage keynotes
our "Enrich Your Life" theme with her 1991
economic forecast. Her book, Terry Savage
Talks Money., the Common Sense Guide to
Money Matters, is "a reliable introduction to
the widening world of do-it-yourself money
management". It is one of the three best
selling financial books in America today. A
founding member of the Chicago Board
Options Exchange and registered invest
ment advisor, she is Financial Analyst on
WBBM-TV Ch. 2 evening news and her
"Money Talks" program leads in to "CBS
This Morning".
Tuesday, April 16, 7:30 p.m. "The
Mystery of the Living Writer" is our gift to
you for National Library Week. We wel
come award winning author (20 years in the
business), journalist and raconteur, Bill
Brashler. He has just completed his ninth
book, Murder in Wtiglcy Field, and will in
troduce us to his main character, Duffy
House. Duffy will be included in a new
series of mysteries. Brashler’s 1989 novel,
Traders is a "provocative portrait of the
Chicago Board of Trade." He is a lively
speaker with a store of anecdotes who will
share with us some advice about the craft
of writing, getting published and surviving
as an author.
ENRICH YOUR LIFE.....ATDEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
With this spring newsletter, we introduce the new Deerfield
Library logo. The logo, seen above on our new masthead,
depicts a book whose spine and pages form the shape of a lotus
blossom, the ancient symbol of self-creation. This identifying
symbol, represents self enrichment through knowledge.
The Library of Congress has designated 1991 the Year of
the Lifetime Reader, so we celebrate LIFE and the connection
between our materials and services and your daily lives. With
our collections, we answer questions: What to name the new
baby? A definition of ulcers and recipes for this condition?
^^low to take minutes at a business meeting? How to spell a
^Bvord, plan a wedding, make a business plan, give a value to
Grandma’s vase, string some beads?
We help you to learn, grow, solve, laugh, feel and cope.
We enrich your life!
BOOKS

WINGS
A year ago I wrote in this column about
the self-collapse of the Berlin Wall and the
effect world-wide peace would have on
genre fiction. I wrote a year too early. The
war in the Middle East and the repression
in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have a
greater potential for disaster than any we
have faced as a nation in the last forty years.
I back our troops in the Persian Gulf and
President Bush. I also respect those of us
who choose to oppose this war. The U.S.
Constitution guarantees freedom of
speech-enabling citizens to voice opposi
tion to governmental policy. About this
right we should be resolute and justly
proud. As a former Staff Sergeant in the 8th
Infantry Division, I have strong feelings
about the safety of our boys overseas. A
concern closer to home are the racial and
ethnic epithets that are heard to describe
Middle Eastern peoples. These
stereotypes must be rejected by all of us.
I am impressed with President Bush
when he speaks of a new world order
emerging from this catastrophe. Hopefully,
this will mean: a permanent rule of Inter
national Law, a rejection of terrorism as an
element of politics, a refusal to arm any
tyrant with modern weapons, and an
American foreign policy that rises above
the failed concepts that have equated our
friends as our enemy’s enemy.
Can the epic Spring of 1990 still bloom
into a world of peace?
The book I am recommending this
month is The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil,
Money, and Power by Daniel Yergin.
Awash in a sea of oil this timely history
traces man’s grasping for oil: the per
sonalities, nationalism, and the drive for
power and wealth that have created and
exacerbated our current dilemma.

�BENN AND SABATO SEEK
RE-ELECTION
F.YA.
■ Music Listening Area: The library has
two new listening stations in the Fic
tion/Quiet Room. You can now hear
your favorite music on cassette or
compact disc or listen to books on tape
in the library. To do this, select your
audio, check it out, ask for head
phones, and leave an i.d. at the
Circulation Desk.
On April, 2 a local election will be held
for two Deerfield library trustee positions.
^|wo incumbents, Sue Benn and Tony
^^abato, will run for re-election. Both 20
year residents of Deerfield, they have each
had a number of years’ experience at board
posts. Sabato has been board treasurer and
Benn has served on committees of the
seven member board. Also active in other
Deerfield community activities, they are
strong users and supporters of the library.
The Library Board meets monthly, and
elected members each serve six year terms.
Their responsibilities include determining
basic library policy, delegating administrative authority to the director, and
overseeing all major expenditures.
■ It now costs 30 cents to reserve a Deer
field book, due to the rise in postal
rates; you are notified by mail when
your book is in. When books are re
quested from other libraries, there is
no charge; you are notified by
telephone.
■ Missing books cause the library lots of
problems. The book you don(t return
is the book the next person needs.
TRUTH STRANGER
THAN FICTION?
■ It is a true axiom that when times get
tough, people use the library more.
The first month of 1991, adult refer
ence questions increased 19 9c from
last year. January 1990: 1,716 ques
tions answered. January 1991:2,047.
The library has just received a new fic
tion book about air combat in the Persian
Gulf, First Air by Michael Skinner. Skinner,
a former CNN writer, has published a tech
no thriller whose images beam at us on the
evening news. The political scenario is dif
ferent, but its depiction of modern war, as
it could happen (already has) in the Persian
is eerily coincidental.
■ Friends of the Library group is becom
ing active and vital. For $5 a year you
can join. Applications at front desk.
AND THE WINNERS IN
THE CHILDREN’S
CATEGORY ARE...
CALLING OUT OF TOWN?
Deerfield Library has always housed a
variety of current out of town (USA)
telephone directories. Further, in the past
each North Suburban Public Library has
"specialized" in a different state, in a
cooperative sharing project. (Deerfield’s
"state" is Arizona.)
Now, public libraries are no longer able
to receive a large variety of free city
telephone books. Since costs will be levied,
we are placing a survey form on each
telephone directory to determine use pat
terns and the most needed phone books.
Please continue to ask the reference
librarians for assistance with the out of
state directories. The telephone directory
issue has become a very complicated one
for libraries.
