BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield. IL 60015
Summer 1990
Vol. 5, No. 3
/lcn,<x44 t&e
What is going to happen to fiction in the
next few years? A real genre staple has been
the anti-Russian-Berlin Wall-British-spyas-savior book. Deighton, Clancy,
LeCarre, Follett, Ludlum, Higgins—the
list goes on forever—have made a cottage
industry and sizeable fortunes bashing the
USSR and the Berlin Wall. What are they
going to do without those all-powerful com
rades to knock flat? The thread of so many
books has been villain-as-non-person; hurt,
violently punished, crushed and shot to
pieces because he deserved it.
Since fiction so often closely reflects
values of the Society in which it was writ
ten, what will the future hold and will the
new array of slimy villains be from the
U.S., or Asia, or the Middle-East? These
books have angry themes of alienation, with
convenient targets for our aggressions.
Hopefully, Fiction will see a renaissance of
creative ideas with a message of reconcilia
tion, gentleness, and healing.
Can the literary conventions we have all
come to accept collapse of their own weight
like the Berlin Wall, or will we insist on a
clone-like perpetuation of the themes of
hate and alienation for the next decade? I
certainly hope that writers don't seek out
the nearest enemy and reinvent this genre
all over again. With the runaway success of
*'
the movie, “Hunt for Red October,
maybe I'm the only one who would like to
see an end to hate and fear in our everyday
reading.
The book we are recommending this
month comes from Martha Sloan, our
Readers’ Services Librarian, who thinks
very highly of Floating in my Mother’s
Palm, by Ursula Hegi, a novel which
evokes a warm and loving childhood in
postwar Germany where Hiker’s name is
never mentioned.
----- Jack Alan Hicks
Administrative Librarian
No chance for boredom when you
‘ ‘beach it” staying tuned to Station READ
for fun, reading relaxation and prizes in the
Youth Services Department this summer.
The Summer Reading Club begins the
week of June 18 and enrollment is
unlimited! Books you read will be record
ed on a jukebox folder. Preschoolers and
kindergarteners can join their own Read To
Me Club, and fill their beach bucket folder
with their favorite titles. The last day to
report on books will be Friday, July 27.
Remember: the greatest reading hits will
be found at 1990 on your Waukegan Road
dial! Grab your radio, beach chair,
sunglasses and books and join us. See
Young People’s page inside for more sum
mer fun at the library and stop in for a
summer program booklist.
So, What’s New?
Look around and you will see many new
improvements designed to serve you better.
—Photocopy charges have been reduced
from 15 cents to 10 cents.
—Lights in the upstairs meeting room
improved to raise the candlepower and
light diffusion; dimmer switches for con
venience, Juno track lights “on stage’’ so
evening program speakers can be seen as
well as heard! New microphones and sound
systems also have been installed in both
meeting rooms.
—New shelving in the fiction room to pro
vide more space for new fiction, all Large
Print books, and most of the libraries’ short
story collections. Short stories including
mysteries and science fiction are now com
ing together in one place for convenient
browsing!
—Minolta Reader Printer replaces a
17-year-old Kodak machine that no longer
is repaired by Kodak. The Minolta 605 uses
standard paper and dry copier chemicals,
zoom lens and motor drive for clearer,
cleaner microfilm copies. It makes white on
black or black on white paper copies.
Assistance from librarians is required
for use.
—Window film on the west windows, 3M
gradient densisty mylar film designed to cut
the heat penetration by 60%, cut glare by
57% and block all ultraviolet rays for
coolness and comfort in the library.
—New IBM series computer for public
use in Young People’s area.
—Coming attractions: Look for a new
system that will bring you current “hot”
books faster, and look for a new sign out
side the library to make the library’s loca
tion more visible.
�Adult Programs
Programs in the library arefree, but reser
vations are requested.
Alaska

special theme.
Thursday, July 12, 10:30 a.m.: Memoirs
of Childhood, books you’ve liked, ones
you’ve missed.
Thursday, August 2, 10:30 a.m.: On-theRoad Books of the 80’s: young and old
have now joined in the Huck Finn tradition;
let’s talk about it!
And The
Winners Are
As a National Library Week celebration,
the library sponsored a Reach for a Star
Contest, asking patrons to tell which books
made an impact on their lives. The votes are
in, as Deerfield Friends of the Library
members Cathy Chay, Lois Stransky, and
Jean Lucas judged the entries:
First prize: Children and Their Parents:
Toward Maturity, by Suzanne Fremon,
1968, submitted by Joan Freedman.
This book changed the kind of parent I
was and had lasting effects not only on me
but on my children. It helped me focus on
our main goal of fostering their positive
growth and development and our relation
ship with them....
99
Second prize: Remembrance of Things
Past, by Marcel Proust, submitted by June
Hamer.
“My favorite books are the seven
volumes of Remembrance...From this
work I have learned to love everyone and
see beauty everywhere. The writing is so
brilliant, exquisite, and refined that I am not
willing for a day to pass without dipping in
to one of these volumes. In time of crisis,
remembering the priorities...helped me
respond and brought us together in work
ing to solve each problem.

“I Can’t Find
That Book”
TRAVEL TOUR:
Historic Homes in Chicago
Saturday, July 28, 9:00 a.m.
An air conditioned deluxe motorcoach
will meet us at the door of the Deerfield
Library at 9:00 a.m. to explore early
residential areas and homes in the City of
Chicago. Included in the tour will be a visit
to the Henry B. Clarke House built in 1836;
it is restored to its original state and filled
with authentic objects from this time
period. In addition to a complete luncheon
at Le Loup, we will be touring landmark
neighborhoods with a number of architec
tural styles, and visit a charming liv
ing/studio/gallery space of one of the city’s
creative artists in Bucktown. We shall
return to the library at 2:45 p.m. Cost of the
tour is $39.50 per person, and this nonreftindable payment (to Deerfield Library)
is required before June 27. Come along!
(What happens when you lose your
library book, cassette, etc.)
If you lose an item, our goal is to recover
the original copy whenever possible,
because replacing materials can easily cost
the library almost twice the purchase price.
Why? Because replacement involves up
dating computer files, reordering and
recataloging the book, re-labeling it with
new pocket and cover, and preparing it for
circulation.
To cover these costs, many libraries
charge patrons large fines or a processing
fee in addition to the price of the book. Here
at Deerfield, we only charge the purchase
price, but we do wait two months for the
book to be found before billing you. Dur
ing this waiting period, circulation staff will
remind you about the missing book each
lime you use your library card—unless you
beat them to it by saying you found it!
Moral of this story—the book may be in
your car, or hidden behind the VCR—keep
searching!
Third prize: Profiles in Courage, by John
F. Kennedy, submitted by Howard Richter.
“A single line, ‘of course everyone is
familiar with the courage shown by John
Adams in his defense of the British soldic
in the Boston Massacre’ stumped m
history teacher, 2 librarians and a U. of
Penn, professor. It became the term paper
of this previously non motivated high
school student leading to my original
research in Boston and the National Ar
chives before I was 17, and later an M.A.
in history.

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.

format of “Wish You Were Here.’’ It in“‘201 eludes library hours, loan regulations,

* % 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.
