Fall, 1992
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
Vol. 7, No. 4
Library Services At Risk
A
t a time when library use has
skyrocketed, Governor Edgar
has approved a state budget
that has cut $7.2 million in funding for
library services in 17 regional library
systems in Illinois. Deerfield Library
belongs to the North Suburban Library
System (NSLS) whose budget has been
cut by 3314%, or $900,000.
At this juncture, it is hard to quantify
how these cuts will affect Deerfield
Library. Jack Hicks, Administrative
Librarian said, "All the external sup
port services that the public has come
to count on will be restricted, or
even eliminated."
Some system services to which the
public has become accustomed are
interlibrary loan of books, Central Seri
als Service which provides free photo
copies of articles in magazines not
owned by Deerfield, System Reference
Service which acts as a backup for ref
erence questions we are unable to
answer, and the loan of audio visual
materials to supplement our collec
tion. Effective immediately, the
serials service for copies of articles
has ceased.
Deerfield and all other Illinois libraries
will face diminished services as all
library systems in the state are
affected. Fifteen staff members of the
North Suburban Library System have
lost their jobs as a result of this cut in
state funds.
Meet Library
Administrators
Better than an inanimate sugges
tion box, Jack Hicks, Administra
tive Librarian and a member of
the Board of Trustees, will be
available in person to greet you
and to address any library issue
in the library's front lobby the
first Saturday of each month
from 9 a.m. to noon.
As funds are now restricted, Sarah
Long, System Director, hopes that
creative solutions may be found to
reinstate system services.
"We simply do not know yet how
deeply these cuts will be felt by our
patrons," said Hicks, "but we will
keep our community informed."
'The reductions will be painful," said
George Ryan, Secretary of State/State
Librarian. Some fees for back-up
library services may be necessary in
Deerfield Library's future.

Across the
Librarian's Desk
T
he State budget cuts discussed
in this newsletter send the omi
nous and chilling message to
librarians across Illinois that services
our residents have come to expect and
count on will be restricted or
eliminated.
Deerfield will be directly affected by
these State budget cuts since they
instantly stratify residents access to
library services into the "haves" and
the "have nots."
We are all aware of the economic and
tax problems Illinois and the USA face
in general terms, but I am going to try
to put it into real terms.
Traveling Librarians share "good reads" at the Deerfield Senior Center. From
left: Judy Hortin, Baiba Rosenkranz, Sally Margolis, Sally Seifert, Pat Palmer,
Martha Sloan. Call us if your group would like a road show.
I see libraries as such a strong exten
sion to education in this country —
cutting across age, educational, and
(Continued on p. 2)
�Librarian’s Desk
(Continued fromn p. 1
economic barriers. If we continue to
erode our educational base I wonder
how this country will ever be competi
tive again. This all has to do with will
power and priorities.
I was really disappointed when the
NASA launch of the Hubble telescope
turned out to be such a fiasco. The Hub
ble project held so much promise for dis
covery and technical advancement yet
delivered essentially nothing. The will
power was there, but the execution was
lacking.
What has this to do with libraries? Sim
ply that the squandered Hubble budget
would pay the State Library System
shortfall for 200 years. I wonder where
our priorities have gone?
Starting soon, when a young child walks
into our library and seeks help that we
routinely have offered from State assis
tance, he will be turned down. When a
businessman seeks a magazine article
we do not hold, he will go away empty
handed. When a college student needs a
reference question answered that is
beyond our scope, it will remain unan
swered. All at a time when our residents
need more, not less, from our library
services. I hope none of the children we
turn away would have been a young
Thomas Edison or Jonas Salk.
I have no crystal ball to discern a glass
darkly, but the cavalier way the Secre
tary of State slashed library service gives
me no optimism.
Libraries provide so much service and
information to so many citizens, yet we
remain the lowest taxing component of
any government — usually 2% or lower.
The politicians will discover that they
can cut all of the library money and still
not effect any real saving. And at what
cost? — shortsighted and illusory sav
ings and permanent damage to library
users in Illinois.

increase over last year, while Deerfield
population remained unchanged.

recordings; 1,098 were donations.
t 40,618 reference questions were asked

child is registered and cannot attend,
notify the library. If a child is absent
without notification, that child's place
will be given permanently to a child
from the waiting list.
I
Pre-school storytimes are one of a
child's first group experiences. In an 8

which is an important part of that expe
rience. Therefore, it is essential to fill
the group with those who are interested
in attending regularly.
Make A Present
New!!! Tot Time
Children in K-2nd grade are invited to
make "one-of-a-kind" presents in work
shops at 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Saturday,

preference to Deerfield cardholders.
Fridays, Sept. 18, Oct. 23, Nov. 20
11 a.m. to noon. Drop in.
Summer Reading Tally
A new monthly program for tots
(infants to 2 years) and their
parents/caregivers offers a sharing,
group library experience: not a storytime format, but very short sessions of
finger games, songs, an introduction to
good books and records.
Adults in attendance should also enjoy
exchanging ideas in an informal setting.
Older pre-school siblings welcome.
For every book read in the summer Youth
Services Reading Club, children put a bean
in a jar at the front desk. By August 1, there
were 7359 beans in the jar! 305 children
received certificates for finishing their
"Discover! Read!" membership.
Two hundred joined the first Deerfield
Library Adult Summer Reading Club,
"Explore New Worlds." Members read a
minimum of 6 books, 3 in a foreign setting.
A valuable gift to the community is a read
ing list compiled from readers' suggestions.

Hicks Stresses
Community Service
Jack Hicks, formerly Head of the
Reference Department, Deerfield Public
Library, was appointed administrative
librarian effective August 1.
He succeeds Suzanne Whetstone who
served as administrative librarian for the
past twenty years. Mrs. Whetstone has
moved to South Bend, Indiana.
Hicks, who is well known and respected
in the Deerfield community, has a strong
commitment to public service and plans to
maintain the library’s fine tradition in the
community. He hopes to improve the
quality of service by adding more
materials, providing access to those
materials, and making best use of
technological advancements available to
libraries. He also wants to emphasize staff
training and “the human touch’’ in delivery
of service and materials.
Always enjoying his contact with the
public at the Reference Desk, Hicks has
pioneered in offering patrons and teaching
(other North Suburban Librarians) online
information retrieval service. Deerfield
was among the first libraries in the nation
to offer searches to patrons at no charge. He
says that the key to online searching is
using it as a standard service, as any other
reference tool.
Jack Hicks
Jack Hicks has lived in Deerfield for 16
years and has been Head of Reference since
1976. He is active in the American Library
Association, Illinois Library Association,
and Midwest Federated Library Associa
tion. He made presentations to the latter two
this spring, about Deerfield Library’s
bibliographic instruction to Wilmot Junior
High students. A paper on this topic has
been prepared by Hicks and teacher
Geraldine Spinella for the November issue
of “Illinois Libraries.’’
Hicks received his B.A. degree from
Hamline University, St. Paul, Minn, and
his Masters degree in Library Science from
Rosary College. He has also served as
Church Librarian at Deerfield’s St.
Gregory’s Church. His wife Donna is Head
of Reader Services at Northbrook Public
Library and they have two daughters,
Maren and Sarah.
New Library Brochure
Published
Deerfield Library has published a new
brochure of library services, in the theme
format of “Wish You Were Here.’’ It in“‘201 eludes library hours, loan regulations,
highlights of the many available items in the
Adult and the Young People’s collections,
as well as information on resources and ser
vices. The brochure is intended to be a brief
review to introduce the many facets of the
fck- library to the community. Brochures are
_' available at the Circulation Desk of the
library, in the program information area.
Larger quantities for distribution may be
— requested.
Sara Paretsky, one of Chicago’s best
known authors and one of the nation’s top
women detective novelists speaks at Deer
field Public Library Sunday Nov. 6. Her
talk which begins at 2 p.m. will be
* % Virgins, Whores and Other Women: Im
ages of Women in Mystery
Paretsky has created a new genre of
female detective stories about a hard
boiled private eye, V.l. Warshawski.
Warshawski comes straight out of the
Dashell Hammett-Raymond Chandler
tradition; a loner with a soft spot for the
underdog, a fierce belief injustice if not the
law, enough stubborn courage to ignore
threats from the mob, and an uneasy
relationship with the local constabulary
according to reviewer Joanna Krotz. This
fictional detective lives in Chicago near
Halsted.
In the past 16 years, Paretsky has had five
books and five short stories published. She
has also won several awards. The books in
clude Bitter Medicine, Killing Orders,
Deadlock and Indemnity Only. Her newest
mystei7, Blood Shot, due out this fall is
a main selection of the Mystery Guild
and alternate selection of three other
book clubs. It has already received high
acclaim.
This popular author of suspense holds a
BA from the University of Kansas and a
PhD in history from the University of
Chicago. Blood Shot will be reviewed at a
library program by Virginia Carter at 11
a.m. Oct. 19. Reservations will be required
for the afternoon Paretsky event.
