David Wolff
Deerfield Public
Library D'listee,
1989 to 2007
Photo by Barbara Struthers
The Library Board and staff were
saddened to learn of the passing of
one of the Library’s friends and
strongest supporters, David Wolff.
David Wolff served as a Deerfield
Public Library Trustee for 18 years.
He held the offices of President,
Secretary and Treasurer.
Current Library Board president
Ken Abosch said, “I think Dave’s
major accomplishment for the
Library was his extreme focus on
the physical side of the facility. He
was instrumental in monitoring
the well-being of the HVAC system,
the roof, elevators, and other
aspects of the building. He always
weighed in on any maintenance
contracts and/or remodeling work
efforts that had to be done, given
his practical knowledge of raw
materials and his knowledge of
contractor practices. As a result,
he also was very actively involved
in the remodeling of the Fiction
room, the Youth Services room,
and the First Floor.”
Dave will certainly be missed. His
cheerful laughter still rings
throughout the Libraiy.
Board Reports on Library Space Needs Study
As Chair of the Long Range Planning Committee, I am pleased to bring you up to date
on the recent architectural study of our current building and future space needs.
In late June, representatives of the architectural firm PSA-Dewberry presented the
Library Board with an assessment of the current building and suggestions for future
improvements. The study included “peer library benchmarking”—comparisons with
similar library facilities—as well as community focus groups, staff input, and a
thorough evaluation of the physical plant and its mechanical, electrical, and other
systems. While our building has been well maintained, it no longer meets code, and
community members continue to comment on its “tired” appearance. Most importantly,
the study revealed significant structural, space, and acoustical problems, as well as
serious parking concerns.
Responding to the Board’s request for need-based, cost-efficient ideas that could help
us improve our library, PSA-Dewberry’s report included recommendations to relocate
the entrance to the northwest corner of the building, expand the east and west portions
of the building by about 5,000 square feet each, reconfigure interior space to increase
flexibility and meet changing patron needs, and address parking concerns. The
architects estimate that such a project could cost $12 to $15 million. While it is
important to note that these recommendations do not constitute an actual plan, but
rather a sort of “you are here” needs assessment, we are excited to share them with
Deerfield residents and eager to solicit feedback on this report. We understand that
public input, as well as ongoing collaboration with the Village, Park District, and other
community leaders, is of critical importance in any improvement process we undertake.
With this in mind, the Board of Trustees will solicit your ideas and opinions at a public
forum to be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday, September 22. Because the library does not have
a meeting room able to accommodate the number of community members who might
wish to attend, the forum will be held at the Patty Turner Senior Center, 375 Elm St.,
Deerfield. Please call Libraiy Director Mary Pergander at (847) 945-3311 for more
information. If you plan to attend this presentation and discussion, please register in
advance at www.deeifieldlibrary.org under “Programs & Classes” or call (847)945-3311.
We hope you will join us!

Navy Flier Crashed
at Library Site 60
Years Ago
On Memorial Day, May 31 at 10:30
a.m., the Library and the Deerfield
Historical Society will remember
Navy Ensign Milton C. Pickens with
the unveiling of a plaque in his honor
outside at the west end of the
Library, as part of the Deerfield
Memorial Day ceremonies.
Ensign Pickens had been training as
an aircraft carrier pilot at Naval Air
Station in Glenview where, sadly, a
number of pilots were killed during
their training. The library has always
known there had been a plane crash
on its property. Recently, through
diligent research by librarian Cindy
Wargo, we have learned that it was a
U.S. Navy F4F Wildcat whose pilot,
Ensign Milton C. Pickens of
Houston, Texas crashed and perished.
Ensign Pickens, 20, won his Navy
wings in December, 1943 and
married Dorothy Prindle of Houston
the same day. Assigned to the Naval
Air Station in Glenview, he crashed
on May 26,1944. He was buried in
Houston. At the time of his death, his
stepfather and two brothers were also
in military service.
Number *■
Across the Librarian’s Desk
The staff and Board are coming to the conclusion of the
long range planning process. Public hearings for input by
our residents will be held this summer.
Over the past two years, a 1000-respondent survey has
been taken, twelve focus groups were conducted,
technology has been reviewed, demographics have been
studied, service levels have been assessed, and
contemporary Illinois libraries have been visited. The Board and staff have prepared
preliminary reports dealing with these issues. Space and building needs have been
studied by Anders Dahlgren, nationally recognized library consultant, who produced
two studies. One is an assessment of the space needs for the current operation which
identified a current need for 54,000 square feet. The second study, a long range
space plan, detailed the need for a building of 70,000-80,000 square feet. The staff
reports, survey, and Dahlgren reports are available at the Reference Desk for review.
The building is currently being studied by the architectural firm of Javore and
Associates to determine what possibilities exist for the present structure and site. The
final two pieces of our planning process will be a series of public hearings for direct
input from our residents and the compilation of the strategic plan itself.
The Library is faced with limited options. The structure’s roof and structural
columns are not stressed to take the floor loading needed for book stacks, making it
expensive and difficult, if not impossible, to simply go up a floor or two. If the
Library expands horizontally, we will lose our parking and access. What the resident
survey revealed was that our residents want the following: the Library should stay in
or near the current location; a drive-through is an urgent need; bigger and better
meeting rooms are desired; quiet study space is needed; a separate area for teenagers
is called for; DVDs, video and audio products are in great demand; longer hours are
desired; parking, ingress and egress are issues with our users; and there is an
insatiable demand for more Internet and computer services.
