Can you please check your files to see if you can find any reference confirming the existence
of a "Andrew Jackson" from Mississippi who passed through Deerfield, Illinois on the
Underground
Railroad circa 1858-1860? We are trying to confirm a local story that says Deerfield
abolitionist Lyman Wilmot arranged for him to live with and work for the Lorenz Ott family one
winter until he could head north to Canada in the spring. That family received one letter saying
he had arrived safely, but that was the last they heard of him. Unfortunately, we do not know if
"Andrew Jackson" was his real name. There is a fugitive narrative by someone else with the
same name written earlier (1847) but that person was from Kentucky and the circumstances
do not seem to match our fugitive's, who was supposed to have been the son of a white
master and a black slave.
I tried to search the list of names on your web site, the one following the list of families, but
all I got was the message "not found" for the link to the "persons" - perhaps you can search
this a different way?
Also, if you have any other suggestions, we would appreciate it. Thank you.
Sincerely, C.H. Wargo, Reference Librarian

THIS MUSEUM, officially opened in 1967. was Raleigh Township’s Centennial Project as a memorial to the Elgin
Settlement, haven for the fugitives of the American system of slavery in the pre-Civil War years.
THE ELGIN SETTLEMENT, which was for many the last stop on the Underground Railroad, was founded in 1849. Under
the guidance and supervision of Rev. William King, litis historic Black settlement soon nourished, becoming a self sufficient
community of some 1200 to 2000 persons. Its first school, the Buxton Mission School, soon surpassed its neighbours in
academic achievements. The settlement built around an agricultural economy included many thriving businesses owned and
operated by the settlers, such a saw and grist mill, a potash and pearlash factors', a brick yard, hotel, blacksmith shop, and dry
goods store, among others. Part of the success of many of the early inhabitants was assisted by the fact that the employment
opportunities offered by the construction of the cross-Canada railway enabled them to purchase outright the land they had
settled. And their many achievements were enhanced by the emphasis they placed on quality education for themselves and
their children.
THE SECOND SCHOOL, set up in the northern end of the settlement now functions as part of the museum. The tlirce
churches built during the settlement’s early years still serve this community. The road and drainage systems built by the early
settlers still serve the widespread farming area.
FOLLOWING THE CIVIL WAR and during the period of reconstruction in the States, many of the settlers returned to their
homes in the south to help educate their recently emancipated friends and neighbours.
NOW KNOWN AS BUXTON, the Elgin Settlement is one of the few remaining Black Canadian settlements still in
existence since the pre-Civil War era. It is a community which has, to a large extent, preserved the co-operative way of life
with which it was begun.
THE OLD SCHOOL (1861) and cemetery (1S57) are on the grounds adjacent to the museum. Farm implements and tools of
the times, household good and furnishings, clothing, jewelry, personal belongings of some ofthe original settlers, and much
more, are all displayed to bring to life the era of the nourishing Elgin Settlement. A part of history gone but not forgotten.

The Museum is maintained through grants from the Municipality of Chatham - Kent, and the Ontario Ministry of Culture
and Communication, admission fees, and donations.
Facilities include a large picnic shelter and barbecue, washrooms, a wheelchair access ramp to the museum and plenty of free
parking Of special note is the Research Area which contains resource materials pertaining to local history and genealogy.
North Buxton Today is inhabited, for the most part, by descendants of those original settlers who elected to remain in
Canada. Though no longer the nourishing community it once was, it still remains a vital and active Black Canadian village,
which continues to remember and preserve its role, and its roots in North American Black history and in the history of
Canada. In 1964 these descendants petitioned the Raleigh Township Council to allow them to use the grants provided for
Centennial projects by the Federal and Provincial Governments. Raleigh's share of the money that had to be raised was raised
entirely within the village of North Buxton, through the efforts of the villagers.
THE MUSEUM'S PRIME CONCERN, is the preservation of material and artifacts of Raleigh, with special emphasis on the
history and accomplishments of the original settlers in the Elgin Settlement and their descendants. Among oilier things, it
houses the bed, dresser, diary and copies of'papers belonging to Rev. William King as well as many other articles and papers
of historical significance in this community.
SINCE 1972, RESEARCH has been carried out on the families of Buxton. Most of the people of the Elgin Settlement have
been identified and indexed and considerable other information is now available in the museum, in forms of records and
family trees. Although the research has been done mainly on Elgin Settlement people, it was inevitable that it would extend
into other areas as well. If you are looking for your "roots", we may have a piece of the puzzle.
THE BUXTON HISTORIC SITE & MUSEUM now includes a well-stocked research library, a cultural room where the
works of several Black artists of local origins are on display, and where video presentations detailing the area can be viewed
by appointment.

Message from
the Director
' JTf-, " ^
We deeply appreciate the t
feedback from the
community as the Library
Board seeks input about
the possible building improvement
project. The March series of Public Open
Houses, the April/May telephone survey,
and the Citizen Input Group have all
contributed to our understanding of the
perspectives, concerns, and suggestions
about the future of the Library in
our village.
What’s next? The Library Board will
review the feedback from the Open
Houses, telephone survey, and Citizen
Input Group. Based on these and other
resources, the Library Board will select
one of the original four options and begin
to develop it further. They will determine
a preferred course of action, and share it
with the Village Board. Then, the
preferred option will be shared with the
community through the second series of
Public Open Houses. Once again, public
feedback will be collected and reviewed
with the Citizen Input Group. By late
summer, the Library Board will
determine whether to proceed with a
possible referendum.
Want to learn more? Have an opinion to
share? The Library Board will continue to
invite participation through the next
series of Public Open Houses. (See
“Planning for the Future” for dates and
times of the sessions.) Take a behind-thescenes tour. Learn about the issues.
Compare us to other libraries. Consider
the costs. To contact a Board member,
call or email them using the contact
information provided on the back cover
of the newsletter, or the Library website.

Planning for the Future
The Library Board is committed to keeping Deerfield residents informed about,
and involved in, the future of the Library. Based upon feedback from the March
series of Public Open Houses and the telephone survey conducted in April, the
Library Board will select one of the four building improvement options presented
and ask the architects and financial consultant to develop it further. During the
next series of Public Open Houses, the selected option will be presented in more
detail and additional public feedback will be sought. Each event in the series
will follow the same agenda, offering residents a variety of convenient times to
attend. One-hour Open Houses will be held Saturday, June 26 at 3 p.m. and
Tuesday, June 29 at 7 p.m.
Results of March Public Open Houses
Five Public Open Houses were held in March to familiarize Deerfield residents
with the Library building history and needs, additional expressed needs of the
community, four possible building improvement options, and the costs projected
for each option—including possible effects on a resident’s real estate taxes.
About 42 members of the general public attended the sessions, and 30 completed
feedback forms. In addition, members of the Citizen Input Group assisted the
Board in evaluating the community feedback and provided their own perspectives
at a special Board meeting held April 24. Of the four options presented, 35%
preferred Option 3—Remodel and Expand, while 60% selected Option 4—Build a
New Library. The remaining 5% chose Option 1 or Option 2 which provide for
changes necessary to meet code, and limited other improvements.
The Library Board continues to receive valuable input from the Citizen Input Group.
Members are: Christine Barr, John Bartok, Cookie Center, Lorraine Clark, Lisa
Crist, Betsy Eisenhauer, Luisa Ellenbogen, Brooke Fogt, Mark Fox, Mike Gruenhut,
Laurie Leibowitz, Rick Lynn, Nancy O’Neill, Jean Reuther, Bob Rosenbacher, Judy
Smith, Amy Thale, Jane Weinstein-Jacobson and Bruce Zimmerman.
Results of Telephone Survey
The Library Board hired the Northern Illinois University (NIU) Public Opinion
Laboratory to conduct a telephone survey of 400 residents of Deerfield. Phone
numbers were chosen at random from those assigned to the Deerfield area—they
were not provided by the Library, nor did NIU have any access to the Library’s
patron database. The survey was developed by NIU with Libraiy input. Results
will appear on the Library's web site. The Library Board will use the findings,
combined with feedback from the Open Houses and other sources, to make a
decision about which building option to pursue, if any.
Updates on the surveys, reports, and Board actions are available at
http://www.deerfieldlibrary.org/deeifield/planning.asp.

�New improvements to Selection and Service
LINKin
You can now search and request an additional 1.8 million items from our
partner libraries in the LINKin network with your Deerfield Public Library
card. LINKin connects the library catalogs of Deerfield Public Library,
Arlington Heights Memorial Library, Cook Memorial Library, Gail Borden Public
Library, and Skokie Public Library. If an item is not available for checkout at
Deerfield Public Library and is available at one of the partner libraries, the
item will be sent to Deerfield Public Library within three or four days. Patrons
will be notified by phone or email when the item is ready for pickup.
On-Shelf Holds
Deerfield Public Library cardholders may now request “on-shelf’ items through
the Library’s online catalog. When a request is placed, Library staff will retrieve
the item from the shelf within 24 hours (excluding Sundays) and put it on the
new self-service holdshelf for the patron to pick up within 5 days. Due to their
high demand, the Library cannot pull DVDs, videos, or video games.
Self-Service Holdshelf
All holds (LINKin books coming from other libraries, on-shelf holds,
Interlibrary Loan items, and regular holds) are now kept on the self-service
holdshelf to the east of the Circulation desk, by the elevator. Items are arranged
alphabetically by patron last name. These books are not checked out to the
patron and still need to be brought to the Circulation desk for check out.
Enotification Contest
All Deerfield cardholders who have signed up for enotification by Saturday, June 19,
will be entered in a drawing for free Ravinia lawn passes. Enotification allows you to
receive notices about holds and overdue items via email rather than by phone. Visit

Info” button and enter your email address. Need help? Stop by any service desk for
assistance.

New Look for Library
Web Site
According to a new study, Americans spend an average of 32.7
hours a week online. That’s why we’ve redesigned the
Libraiy’s ‘Virtual branch.” It’s now easier than ever for you to
use Library resources when you’re online. The new web site
features an updated calendar of Library events; recommended
web sites for adults, teens, and children; lists of bestsellers
and award-winners that take you directly into the Library’s
catalog; and online forms for asking a librarian a question.

�Message from the
Director
You’ve spoken,
and we’ve lis
tened and made
changes. If
there is a
theme to this
newsletter
issue, that is it!
Many of you have expressed frus
tration in the past over our fee
structures, limits on materials, and
renewal limits. Well, we have
dropped some of these and loos
ened up others (although they
aren’t all gone!) The goal is to give
you more of what you want and less
of what you don’t want. Read about
these changes on the front page.
We have also launched a new web
site, designed to help you find what
you are seeking more easily. We’ve
added many new features, and
more are yet to come. We hope
you’ll agree that this is a big
improvement!
During the summer months, watch
for some colorful, comfortable new
additions to the furnishings in the
Youth Services department. A few
similar touches may appear in
other departments, as well.
Although we are planning substan
tial interior improvements for the
future, we realize that a few
updates will brighten the Library
and make coming here more enjoy
able. We want to help build antici
pation for the other positive
changes to come!
Stop by and see for yourself,

In the early 1990s, the Simon family began
a memorial fund for the Library, in honor
of their daughter Amy Simon. The funds
were used primarily for certain types of
children’s books and to promote reading
for children. The fund grew over the years
as other family members contributed.
Although the fund was terminated in 2006
many children’s books continued to
receive the memorial nameplate. Today,
there are dozens of these titles. To show
appreciation for the Simon family’s gen
erosity through the years, the Youth
Services department recently created a
special display of some of the Simon Fund
memorial books, which are available for
check-out. The display, updated regularly,
will run through May 2008.

Space StrugglesNew Services
As
librarians in each department are struggling with
space limitations of our current library, we are doing our best to
keep the collection up-to-date and organized, without overflow
ing, and make the best use of space while still providing some
new services in response to user requests.
The new services are
• Language learning ONLINE (for home use only). The
library has added the Rosetta Stone language learning soft
ware to its list of databases. You use this interactive language
learning product from your home computer (you cannot use it
at the library)! learning at your own pace with no tapes or
CDs to return to the library.
Aimed at the traveler, these Rosetta Stone courses include
French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, English (UK) and
English (US). You can use the English course to improve your
skills in your own language. The language immersion method
emphasizes speech and is a fast way to leant a language. You
match an image to a spoken word or phrase.
' Number 2
• More Internet computers...streamlined sign-up...relocation
of library catalogs. Starting in fall, there will be three more
Internet computers (making a total of nine) in the Adult
Reference area better to meet the demand within the available
space. Some library catalogs will be relocated to kiosks more
convenient to the stack areas. The Internet computers in Youth
Services will be dedicated to children and their parents or
caregivers.
A new collection of video games for Playstation 2 and
X-box console systems! Deerfield cardholders will be able to
check out these titles for one week. Some of the new titles
purchased include Halo, Lord of the Rings, Prince of Persia,
Ninja Gaiden and X-Men. In the coming months we shall be
adding more titles to keep up with the growing demand for
these titles. Borrowing is limited to 2 per family until the
collection grows. Children under 18 must obtain a parental
permission slip (different from the video permission slip) at
the Circulation Desk for the games.
Go to the library’s website (www.deerfieldlibrary.org) and
click on “Online Databases.” Scroll down and click on
“Rosetta Stone.” You must make up and enter your own
user name and password, then enter the bar code from
your Deerfield library card as the registration code. You
must enter user name and password each time you use the
product. Instructions will guide you through. Rosetta Stone
offers free technical support by e-mail, fax and telephone.
Studying in the library is easier with our lightening-fast wireless
internet. Bring your laptop and enjoy this library service.

�K.LD.D.O.S. Raises Money
for Library
Deerfield’s energetic Sue Vani, mother of two young children and
Lincolnshire first grade teacher, decided that young children need
ed to learn about philanthropy and that even pre-schoolers needed
to find a way to give back to their community. She came up with
the idea of K.LD.D.O.S. (Kids in Deerfield Doing Outstanding
Service). Their first annual event was a very
successful talent, fashion and art show July 21 at Deerfield’s First
Presbyterian Church. Highlights included an Elvis impersonator
(Kevin Mell, age 8) and hula dancers (Molly and Caroline
Nakahara, ages 7 and 3). Kevin Quigley of Cherry Pit fame
volunteered to emcee, and all proceeds from the show (which also
included a raffle, artwork and crafts) were donated for toys for the library’s Youth
Services Department. Vani said about $1000 was raised and already used to pay for a
new train set, dollhouse, puppets, puzzles and more.
Library Board News
At the spring library board of directors meeting,
the officers were re-elected to their posts for
another year. They are President, David Wolff;
Secretary, Ron Simon and Treasurer, Jeff Rivlin.
Other board members include Ken Abosch, Jeff
Blumenthal, Sheryl Lamoureux and Sunday
Mueller. Their phone numbers and e- mail
addresses appear on page four, should you wish
to contact any of them. Each month the trustees
are holding “Librarian in the Lobby” to discuss
library issues informally with the public. Open
library board meetings are held at 8 p.m. the
third Wednesday of each month.
THE MISSION OF THE
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
is to provide our community
with open access to the world
of information and ideas,
encouraging lifelong learning
and personal growth in a
welcoming environment.
Vani’s friends Danielle Pedderson and Marla Callistein helped Vani organize the very
successful event. Their goal this year was to attract children to the library and provide
activity for their younger siblings that would lead to a pleasant library experience. The
library staff is most grateful to Sue, her adult helpers and the children who made it
possible.

In Memoriam
The Library staff was saddened to learn of the
death of John A. Anderson, who served on the
Deerfield Library Board of Trustees for
twenty-four years. Anderson retired from the
board in 2001 when he moved to Wauconda.
He had been a Deerfield resident for thirty-four
years, was first elected to the library board in
1977 and reelected in four subsequent
elections. A multi-faceted man, Anderson was
a strong advocate of freedom of speech, access
by all residents to all forms of information and
of library literacy. He was always a staunch
supporter and friend of our library and we shall
miss him.

Across the
Librarian's Desk
r
irst of all, I would like to thank the
voters who supported the Library
referendum. They grasped that a new
library is needed in Deerfield and that it
would be an exciting resource for the whole
community, providing a wider range of
educational, cultural, and information ser
vices to everyone. Also, I would like to thank
Bill Darrow and the Friends of the Library
for their enthusiastic efforts on our behalf.
Secondly, I truly appreciate the thoughtful
endorsement of the Library referendum made
by the editorial staff of the Deerfield Review.
Diverse opinions as shown in the ballot box
are the foundation and the beauty of a
democracy. That’s why the Library chose to
go to the voters to determine if the desire to
expand the Library was reflected in the
community. After three years of planning, we
knew it was important to hear what all the
residents had to say. We had tried our best to
publicize our planning process: we had
articles in every issue of our Browsing
newsletter for the past three years and
numerous articles in the Deerfield Review,
plus our one-thousand-respondent citizen
survey and twelve focus groups. We held a
library open house and provided ample
settings for the community to ask questions.
The next step would have been to hire an
architect and a library consultant to design a
library and produce architectural plans. That
step would, by necessity, have been a very
expensive one. Before that was done, we
needed to know exactly what the residents
were willing to pay for.

25 Years of Cooperation Between the
Deerfield Schools and the Library!
Students’ lack of library know-how led Geri Spinella, (then a language arts teacher,
now assistant principal of Caruso Middle School), to consult with Jack Hicks, (then
a reference librarian, now library director) to begin a joint library instruction
program that has been running for 25 years. The program was designed to bring
students into the public library to learn how to use library resources. Jack Hicks
said, “Our goal was to widen students’ horizons for doing their assignments. We
have many resources that the schools do not have. As Deerfield Library was among
the first libraries in Illinois to
offer new information tech
nology, Geri was anxious for
students to learn new tech
nologies. Also, since we are
open evenings and weekends,
students can come in to use
library materials after school
hours...good value for
Deerfield taxpayers whose
children are in school!”
This program requires hours
of coordination between the
teacher and the librarian, scheduling times, selecting topics, and preparing many
resources. Once here the students also work with the Youth Services and
Circulation Departments. The Library welcomes this opportunity to show young
users what the public library has to offer, particularly online magazine databases
with full-text articles, available for printing or emailing. Also, the students are
pleased to find that, with their library cards, they can use home internet access to
reach the Library’s online databases.
This January and February eight Caruso Middle School classes came into the
Library twice for an hour each time to pursue their personal research projects.
Coordinators were Judy Hortin, Head of Reference, and Caruso language arts
teacher Leslie Gordon. Leslie, who has been with the program for 20 years, said,
“For many of our students, it is an eye opening experience to see how much they
can find in the Library on one topic.”
Both the Library and Caruso hope that this cooperative mission gives students a
skill that will serve them throughout their academic careers and beyond.

continued from page 1
Built in 1970, and not designed for technolo
gy, our building has reached the limits of its
structure. All available space has been used.
Starting in 1991 and ending in 1996, the
Library underwent renovations to maximize
the use of the space potential in the building
and bring it as close as possible to Americans
with Disabilities Act standards. Those
renovations were designed to give the Library ten to fifteen years
added lifespan. The goals of the remodeling have been reached but
can go no further.
Over the past three years, through surveys and resident input we
have heard clearly that our residents want the Library to remain
where it is in the center of town. We have also heard from residents
that they want more services, more meeting room space, more
programs, books and other materials. Currently, we must turn a
sympathetic but deaf ear to these requests.
The result of the vote leaves us with few immediate options other
than to redefine service within the present building. Library staff are
pursuing alternatives for the replacement of the roof membrane, air
handlers, and air conditioning condensers and compressors. These
repairs can mean expensive investment in an aging structure. The
vote also means the closing of the window of opportunity to pur
chase adjacent property for logical expansion. A number of civic
leaders have spoken about the importance of this quadrant remaining
the “governmental” quadrant, but that is now beyond Library control.
Some people have urged me to move heaven and earth to purchase
the apartment building to the north of the Library. Such a move
would break faith with the intentions of the taxpayers and is not one
I will initiate. Though loss of that land limits our future options,
frankly we do not have the resources to purchase that building—that
would take third-party intervention.
This is the first time in thirty-five years we have asked Deerfield
taxpayers to approve a referendum. The Library, in fact, has a
spotless record of operating within budget over those thirty-five
years. Much has been said about the size and cost of our proposed
library. In the past ten years, all over the United States, there has
been a renaissance of library building. At the same time more than
twenty-five libraries have been built in Chicagoland. We are very
familiar with all of this construction and the opportunities it has
brought to their communities.
These new libraries do indeed represent a point of departure over
libraries of the past. The communities that have built new libraries
have observed that in the age of Internet, the need for library service
has not diminished but has grown. Contemporary libraries are techni
cally and structurally complex buildings that are expensive. Add to
that the fact that structural steel and aluminum have risen in price
over 30% in the past year, and the cost of new libraries comes into
perspective.
We will continue to do what we have always done best: address the
needs of the community for the future and keep abreast of emerging
library trends in technology, programs, services, and materials. To
those ends the Board has been working with the Executive Service
Corps to begin work on a strategic plan that will address the future of
this building and user services, all based on progressive professional,
personal service. The Board is committed to providing vision and
leadership to ensure that the Library is not on a trajectory that could
see it fall behind libraries in neighboring communities.

WINTER, 1993-94
Across the
Librarian's Desk
eeing Presidents Bush and Carter
standing in the wings as Bill Clin
ton, Yitzhak Rabin and Yasir
Arafat signed the historic Palestinian
Accords was so reaffirming of our great
American traditions—this is truly a won
derful country that stands for the highest
ideals. It was an inspiring moment we
should all cherish.
The excitement of the moment got me to
thinking about what was going through
Bill Clinton's head as he stood there and
watched this historic moment unfold. Not
to worry, I thought, I can read his memoirs
and know exactly. Or can I? First-hand
presidential intent
and insight is not
<Ut WAS AN
easy to find.
INSPIRING MOMENT
Many of our presi
WE SHOULD
dents have written
ALL CHERISH. M
books. Some of
them, like Reagan
actually have left us with an extensive
written history. But do they tell us any
thing, or do they just record the events,
whitewash their consciences, or knock old
adversaries? Lyndon Baines Johnson
wrote a number of unreflective books.
Today, Johnson is quite in vogue for
revisionist historians to defend or destroy.
What really went through Johnson's
thoughts as Viet Nam— his personal
Armageddon— played itself out
is unrecorded.
Harry Truman wrote prolifically, but not
really for public consumption. As fond of
his writings as I am—for his knowledge of
history, his acute observations, his intelli
gence and grasp of a situation—he puts an
oT Missourian spin on each episode he
describes, especially when it comes to peo
ple he didn't like. Smart man, though.

DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
Vol. 9, No. 1
New Computer System on PIorizon
The library computer catalog consortium
(including Deerfield, Skokie, Morton Grove
and Waukegan), is in the final phase of selecting a new computer system. The new system
will offer increased access to materials, higher
speed, greater reliability and features only
dreamed of when our system was purchased
nine years ago.
Library Patrons Approve
Car system has served us well, but software
and hardware cannot be enhanced to take
advantage of technological advances,
A system will be selected by December, with
conversion and installation to be done in
summer of 1994. The finalist systems offer
ease of use, intuitive functions, and a high
degree of user friendliness.
Thanks for your patience
In a user satisfaction survey conducted
during the summer by Miriam Pollack, of
the North Suburban Library System, the
Deerfield Library received a 97% approval
rating. The range of comments on services
and staff was interesting and valuable.
The data will be used in our long range
planning this winter.
The library is in the final stages of renova
tion to meet requirements of the Ameri
cans with Disabilities Act. This will
include, but not be limited to TDD, self
opening front doors, handicapped
restrooms, handicapped accessible
elevator, lowered drinking fountains,
and outside ramps.
Your continued comments and suggestions
are welcomed; we have a suggestion box at
the front desk, and Librarian in the Lobby
Mondays 7-9 p.m December 6, January 10
and February 7. At that time you may meet
informally with one of our board members
and with Director Jack Hicks.
Due to renovation, we have lost the down
stairs meeting room for an indefinite
period. Since meeting room space is now
restricted, community organizations are
advised to plan meetings in other loca
tions. We also have had to temporarily
restrict lending of videos as storage space
was reduced by elevator construction.
News to note:
Please bring your library card with you to
check out books! If you do not have your
library card with you, it will cost a quarter
to check out books, effective January 1,
1994. With no library card, you also need
to have i.d. and have your name in our
computer system.
Library users who purchase a non resident
card: be aware! The State Legislature has
passed a Bill that restricts use of non
resident fee cards to the library where
they are purchased, beginning January 1.
Our former costly and unreliable boilers
have been replaced by a new computer
controlled heating system. We look for
ward to a toasty winter in the library.
It’s tax season again...
Yes: Free income tax advice will be
offered at the library Tuesdays and
Fridays, 1-4 p.m. February 1-April 15.
This program is sponsored by the IRS
and the AARP.
No: The Deerfield Library is no longer
able to provide income tax forms. We
are not federally funded and it has gone
beyond our ability to handle.

A Victorian Women and Their Affairs

today's society? Prudence Moylan, Professor of
History at Loyola University, Chicago, observes
that women of 200 years ago struggled with
issues similar to those of today.
Librarian’s Desk (Continued from v. v
Richard Nixon is probably our only president
to respect reading and writing—he has given
us astonishing insights at events he partici
pated in. But along with every one else at the
time of Watergate, I was struck by how little I
knew of Richard Nixon, the man. He seems
today a shrouded picture of Dorian Gray.
President Bush has written, but his wife's
dog book out sold him ten to one. Ronald
Reagan's wife has written, Gerald Ford has
written, Jimmy Carter has written. I don't
think any of these folks have enriched our
knowledge or written the definitive history

Calling All
Local Authors!!!
The Deerfield Library plans to
celebrate our community's own

our collection. Please contact Martha
Sloan or Sally Seifert if you wish to
be included.

of their own administration. Can we expect
Clinton to do better?
Also, clouding the issue is the ghost writer.
Were any presidents good writers? Read
Lincoln's speeches if you doubt his greatness.
If you think Roosevelt's writings were ghost
written, look at the handwritten corrections on
his "Day of Infamy" speech and you see great
writing. But if you want to read fantastic mem
oirs, read Ulysses Grant. He speaks from the
page like a hybrid of Lyndon Johnson and
James Herriot. Illinois' Grant is a wonderful
writer with charm, grace, wit, toughness and a

grasp of everything that was going on around
him. However, criticisms of his Presidency say
the same things about him—in reverse. His
book was a best seller.
Will Bill Clinton write the definitve account of
what happened in Washington when Israel
and the PLO made peace? Probably not, but
that doesn't diminish the moment. That
account will be written sometime soon, and
you will find it here in your library.

_
music and carols of Christmas,
customs around the world,
crafts and cooking from many
countries, plus stories for the
whole family. The Sugar-Plum
Christmas Book by Jean Chap
man combines stories and crafts
for delightful reading. The
Christmas Spider by Loretta
Holz has directions for beautiful
I
crafts from Poland. To celebrate
Hanukkah we recommend The
Hanukkah Book by Mae Rock
land. It includes the origins of
this holiday along with chil
dren's crafts and games. Another
helpful book is Festivals for You
to Celebrate by Susan Purdy. A
Picture Book of Hanukkah by
David Adler is a good book to
read to preschoolers. Most of
these books can be found in the
394.2 section but look around
745.5 for materials on crafts.
Religious books will be 296.4.
Happy Holidays!

crack a case by using a universal
microcomputer language on
their home or school computer
while reading the book.

We will read the non-partisan,
non-political Foreign Policy
Association briefing booklet for
in-depth background. Then after
our weekly discussion, we reg
ister our views on the opinion
ballots. They will be tabulated,
along with more than 61,000
others, and sent to the President,
Congress, Departments of State
and Defense, and the national
media.
Make your opinion count!
Register at the library, buy your
$7.00 briefing book, and join us

In the February/April issue of
our newsletter, we reminded and
thanked our patrons for helping
us in our Output Measures Sur
vey in which we computed for
n n
Fill rate" for refer"fill rates,
ence is defined in terms of the
number of reference transactions
completed in proportion to the
total number of reference trans
actions. For author/subject,
title, and browsing, it is defined
in terms of the number of items
found in proportion to the num
ber of items sought.
The results of our survey and
those completed by 37 other
North Suburban Library System
public libraries were compiled
and here is how we fared:
Reference: Number 1
96.00% (Ave.-75.41%)
Title: Number 1
81.60% (Ave.-66.52%)
Author/Subject: Top 18%
82.50%
Browsing: 3.05% above average
95.20%
Again, we thank all of those
patrons who took the time to
help us with the survey.
PHONOLOG/
LIST-O-TAPES
Have you ever needed to find
the performer of a particular
song or the name of the album
or tape in which the song
appears? Deerfield Public
Library has useful sources to
help you find music-related in
formation. Phonolog is a looseleaf, subscription service which
gives information on songs (com
poser/artist/label/album number
/album the song appears on),
artists (albums/singles), and
albums (artist/label/album number/songs). List-O-Tapes has the
same information for tapes
(cassette/8-track/reel-to-reel).
The main body of these
works consists of pop titles, pop
artists, and pop albums or tapes.
"Pop" includes rock, country, R
& B, soul, and jazz. There are sep
arate sections for band, Christ
mas, children's, sacred, Hawaii
an, classical, and other categories
of music. There is also an alpha
betically arranged list of record/
tape companies in the front of
the work.
Phonolog and List-O-Tapes
are located on top of our vertical
file.
TAX ASSISTANCE
Free tax assistance will again
be offered by trained graduates
of A. A. R.P.'s VITA program.
