High Tech Speeds
Periodicals Search
While the Reader's Guide and the
newspaper indexes are still options
for searching for magazine and
newspaper articles, the library now
has a computer system called "InfoTrac" which allows patrons to
search quickly for articles on specif
ic topics from 1100 current maga
zines and some newspapers.
Each article description contains
the headline of the story, the name

Across the Librarian s Desbi
Librarians are inextricably bound to
books in their personal and professional
lives, yet it is seldom that librarians are
writers, or get to see a book in an early
stage of production. This is especially
true of reference books, since they are
generally contract work done by very
large publishers. Five or six reference
book publishers dominate the field:
Bowker, Gale, Wilson, Britannica, Dun
and Bradstreet, and Standard and Poors.
It is very unusual for an author or
publisher to create a reference book that
is new in concept, brilliant in organiza
tion, with a scope and depth that ex
of the publication, author, pages
and length. Also, InfoTrac will sug
gest related articles. You can print
out this information (not the whole
article)!
If Deerfield does not own the
magazine you need, we may be able
to get a photocopy for you from an
other library.
ceeds existing works. Reference books
by their very nature are cold and evolu

professional writers who are more orga
nizers and indexers than they are au
thors. I feel privileged to have seen a
book, early on, that contradicts this de
scription.

Tom Parfitt has stepped down as
President of the Library's Board of
Trustees after serving in this capaci

every document that has shaped
and. guided us for years. He passed
the referendum that built our pre

Also stepping down from office
is Rosemary Sazonoff, Secretary.
Both Parfitt and Sazonoff will re
main on the board. New officers are
Sue Benn, President, and David

�FRIENDS UPDATE
Mission
The mission of the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library is to provide support to the Library through
funds, human resources and the sponsoring of community programs.
Two Years Young
In late 1989 a handful of community members organized Deerfield’s Friends of the Library. Over the
past 24 months supportive, civic-minded village residents have swelled the Friends’ membership to over
40. With everyone’s contributions of time and energy, the Friends have been successful in carrying out
its mission through fundraising events, volunteer support and education programs.
May 1990 — Art Auction
To make room for book shelves, the Library had to remove its display of art prints and
end the service of loaning them. The Friends held an auction of the 175 prints as its
first official fundraising event.
October 1990 — Agatha Christie Centennial
Friends sponsored a community program to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Agatha
Christie. Preceding the lecture, the Friends hosted an authentic English tea.
January 1991 — Library support
Friends members volunteered to help at the Library-sponsored lecture and book sign
ing for Shelby Yastrow, author of Undue Influence.
April 1991 — Children’s Program
Friends sponsored a children’s folk song fest and lively hoe down featuring Jenny
Armstrong.
July 1991 — Family Days
Friends provided volunteers to help Library staff distribute lemonade during the 4th of
July activities.
August 1991 — Trunk Sale
Community members are invited to fill their cars with all their “treasures” and sell them
in the Library parking lot. The trunk sale is an annual fundraiser for the Friends who
rent the Library’s parking spaces to sellers.
Into the Future
January 1992 — Children’s Program
Punch and Judy come to Deerfield. (See this issue’s calendar.)
June 1992 — Trunk Sale
TBA — Fundraising event
July 1992 — Friends of the Deerfield Library 4th of July Parade Float
TBA 1993 — Book Sale
This event requires many manhours to accomplish and will be held only if there is a
commitment of time and interest among membership.
�Back to the Community
Monies generated through fundraising events and membership dues are returned to the community through
the sponsorship and hosting of community education/entertainment programs.
Support Your Library . . . Be A Friend

the very best of what reference pub
lishing should be. Written from the
heart, with professional experience,
this book will become a classic — used
by parents, students, librarians and
counselors alike. The K & W Guide fills
a need and answers questions that no
other book does. This is exceptional
reference writing.
I was, and still am, astonished by
their effort. I have never seen a refer
ence book in its first edition that has
the content, scope, authority, organi
zation and coverage that this book
has. That two first-time authors could
produce a book this comprehensive
and discriminating is truly an accom
plishment. When the authors showed
me the book for the first time, I sus-
pect they had an idea of just how out
standing it is.
Now we all know. Library Journal, the
flagship of library magazines, has just
given the book a starred review — the
highest they give. A rave, it compares
the K& W Guide to Lovejoy's Guide and
finds it a superior book. I am sure it will
be a standard reference book used in
every library in this country. I am also
sure that the authors will reap the re
ward and recognition they deserve. The
best part is that the parents and stu
dents with learning disabilities will find
the reassurance, support, hope and
guidance they need. Well done, Imy
and Mary Beth!

The Deerfield Library has re

for the Amy Simon Foreign Lan

daughter of Judy and A1 Simon,
Deerfield residents for 23 years. The
fund is in memory of Amy, an avid
library user, who died August 23 in
an automobile accident. Anyone
wishing to contribute to the fund in
Amy's memory may send a contri
bution to the library, care of Mrs.

War II, blotters, and postcards
for the entire world. This collec
tion contains (in the postcard
section alone) 1 million unique
views, and is a major resource of
historical significance covering
the years 1898 to 1974. Most of
the original artwork that went
into the production, including
negatives, paste-ups, client let
ters, etc. were saved and are part
of this impressive collection. It is
now being cataloged with com
puter cross-references and is
used by authors, film companies,
business, and historians.
Ms. Hamilton-Smith, archivist
and lecturer, has advanced de
grees in Art History from the
University of Chicago and St.
Andrews University, Scotland,
and her experience includes
work in several archives and gal
leries. She will tailor her talk to
emphasize Deerfield and the sur
rounding area as she brings a
sampling of North Shore views
from the postcard collection.
Our program is scheduled for
the week before the longawaited permanent exhibit
opens at the Lake County Muse
um in Wauconda. We hope you
will take advantage of this
opportunity to hear our talk,
then take the family out to the
Lakewood Forest Preserve to en
joy its country surroundings.
