Winter 1996 - 1997
Library
Celebrates
70th
Birthday
n January 1,1927 Deerfield’s
first library was opened in
the Deerfield Grammar
School (now die site of the School
District #109 Administration Build
ing) and was furnished with 700
books donated or purchased with
funds contributed by the citizens of
Deerfield.
The library was moved tempo
rarily in 1955 to a converted store
at 758 Waukegan. In 1959 the li
brary shared space with the town hall
as a township library. As a village li
brary, a bond issue was approved to
build and equip our present build
ing, now 25 years old.

ies. One holds that technology is the only future
for libraries contrasted against a traditionalist past
that says—"no change, books only."
We hear so much today about computers, in
formation technology, Internet, cd-rom, that many
libraries have lost sight of what residents expect
to find when they come into a library. Certainly
we try to keep abreast of current technology—
we offer a number of online and offline reference

sources right now. Whether or not librar
ies will in fact ever become strictly infor
mation centers remains an open ques
tion. In the meantime technology and its
ancillaries have come to dominate think
ing and budgets in many libraries.
The speed of change in information
technology will cause many, many
changes in the format and style of deliv- "
ery of library service. My crystal ball does
not tell me what the final outcome will
be. There will be and are new ap
proaches to the age-old question that has
plagued librarians ever since the library
at Alexandria in Ptolemaic Egypt. “What's
a good book to read?" In fact, readers
advisory is becoming one of the most fas
cinating areas of library service and an
area of real growth and development of
library service. This also helps librarians
focus on what most people come into the
library to find—a good book.
Ironically the tools of the readers ad
visory trade are those of computers and
technology. These allow us to relate one
fiction book to another, produce lists of
”read-a-likes," recommend fiction from
obscure authors, and generally provide
a more indepth readers referral than we
ever could using only our memories and
our own reading tastes. Even the Internet
has become a great source for readers
advisory work.
The old fashioned way to learn about
new authors and titles is from another
reader. Our Summer Reading Club is
based on this idea and has been such a
success we are organizing a Winter
Reading Club to share new titles and to
introduce new readers to old titles.
Here is a short list of read-a-likes put
together by our staff:
If you liked Colin Powell's biography,
you'll like U.S. Grant’s Memoirs. If you
liked Primary Colors you’ll like All the
President's Men. If you liked The Last
Don. you'll like Honor Thy Father. If you
liked A Time To Kill, you'll like A Lesson
Before Dying. If you liked The Bean
Trees, you'll like Where the Heart Is. If
You liked Gods and Generals, you’ll like
KillerAngels. If you liked Fried Green To
matoes you’ll like Walking Across Egypt.
If you liked Midnight in the Garden of
Good and Evil, you’ll like A Death in White
Bear Lake. And finally if you liked Snow
Falling on Cedars. I know you’ll like En
emy Among Friends. Be sure to watch
for our Winter Reading Club.
