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
bricked-up Paris cellar and
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

It’s Great to be Home!
What a terrific welcome home party that
was! Over 2,300 people visited the
renewed, refreshed and repurposed
Library on that blistering hot June
afternoon to explore all of the new
features of our great new space and get
reacquainted with old favorites.
Members of the Library’s Board, staff
members and our Friends of the Library
heard many positive comments. I had the
opportunity to talk with visitors about
specific features of the building, answer
questions, listen to so many helpful
suggestions and discuss what we can do
to continue to live up to our mission to
provide you with open access to the
world of information and ideas,
encouraging lifelong learning and personal
growth in a welcoming environment.
Here are responses to a few of the
recurring suggestions and questions
we’ve heard:
• To expand the opportunities to curl up
with a good magazine, chat quietly
with friends, or review a pile of books,
we’ll be adding some additional
seating, especially in our adult areas.
• More computers for adults will be
added outside the Computer Lab, for
access even during classes. We will
also soon begin to offer laptops for
in-library usage. (But not iPads—
Sony for any confusion!)
• Although the Library parking lot has a
few less spaces, Library staff members
are now parking offsite, making up to
35 additional parking spaces available
to our users.
• Just as before, there is NO turn from
the Library parking lot onto Waukegan
Road. Please exit the parking lot by

proceeding south along Jewett Park
past the police station to Deerfield
Road or Waukegan Road.
• All temperatures, from the restroom
tap water to the hand dryers to
individual room temperature and
humidity settings, are automatically
regulated to be both environmentally
responsible and economical. For
some, it may seem too hot. To others,
too cool. All public buildings try to hit
the middle.

Rosenthal (right) lead excited
community members into the
newly revitalized, refreshed
and repurposed Library after
the opening ceremony June 23
was officially proclaimed
DEERFIELD PULIC LIBRARY
DAY in honor of the occasion
and Congressman Schneider
entered a special congratulatory
statement into the official
Congressional Record. That
statement reads, in part:
"Mr. Speaker, as libraries’ roles
in our communities continue
to evolve, Deerfield Public
Library is at the cutting edge
and has taken bold strides to
maintain its leadership in
thefield.”
To share YOUR thoughts, use the
