Starting Time Changes
for Board Meetings
The Deerfield Library Board of
Trustees has been holding open

Wednesday of each month.
AS OF JANUARY, 2006,
THESE MEETINGS WILL

ings, or special board meetings
will be posted with an agenda in
the library and the Village Hall
48 hours before a meeting. The

New Gift Book Policy
The library board recently
approved a newly revised gift
book policy. We welcome mone
tary gifts to purchase library
materials and also accept donated
used books and non-book
current material in good condi
tion. Our professional staff
evaluates gifts using the same
criteria they use for purchased
materials. The library accepts
several categories of gifts: cash
donations, gifts in remembrance
and donations of materials. The
staff will provide written
acknowledgement of gifts if
requested. For details, you may
pick up a copy of the gift policy
at the library.
Mayor Richard M. Daley Praises Libraries
Mayor Daley recently addressed the American Library Association’s annual conference in
Chicago. He said that in 2005 alone, Chicago had seven libraries under construction and 45
built or renovated in the past 16 years. He credits the taxpayers for allowing him to invest in
libraries in the city and increase taxes for libraries.
Libraries are important to the mayor. He said: “I look at libraries as a learning experience.
They are part of the education system. It was never separate. When I became mayor, I said
This is part and parcel of our educational commitment.’ We need libraries. They are just as
important as building police
stations. We are building fire
stations, senior citizen buildings,
schools and libraries because they
become anchors of a community.
&SG?
When somebody sees a library
being built in their community,
what they see is confidence in the
community. The library becomes
part of our economic develop
ment and that’s the key. All of a
sudden new homes go in. People
Deerfield Nursery School students tour the library
and enjoy listening to a story
say, ‘We’re now invested in the
community...

□ Why do we we purchase more abridged
than unabridged books on tape? Many
patrons don’t want to carry 12 or more cas

fewer popular titles are available in
unabridged format and are costly. We are
increasing our unabridged collection but if
we do not own we can arrange an interli

Dynix At
Your Service!
Our “mascot” butler welcomes you
to the new Dynix computer sys
tem. We officially went online with
our new system on November 1
and patron reactions are positive!
The colorful new screens replace
our “old” GEAC computer catalog
and circulation system which
served us well for almost 10 years.
(We eliminated our card catalog 6
years ago.)
The faster, more powerful sys
tem continues to be in a consor
tium with Skokie, Morton Grove
and Waukegan Libraries. The
Dynix system is very “user
friendly” and flexible, with
- wider access promised
in the future. This
should include
access to numer
ous periodical indexes, community
resource File, gateways to remote
databases and access to Internet.
We anticipate a smooth adjust
ment and appreciate your patience
in accepting and becoming com
fortable with the new system.
What a man Teddy Ballgame was—a real
hero to all of us kids. The last .400 hitter. In
modern life, all of our shared experiences

watched Ken Burns’ nine-installment baseball
TV series tell us that baseball is the perfect
metaphor for American life. That the game
reflects us for good or ill, and that baseball
could only be an American game. A charm
ing TV series but a flawed theory.
Reflecting on the 1994 baseball strike that
ruined the best season in- years—the only one
in ninety with no World Series—I could be
inclined to agree with Burns, only in reverse.
Baseball as a perfect metaphor for American
life: grasping, greedy, selfish men lacking in any
semblance of culture, with no knowledge of his
tory. Those who grab mopey without regard for
others, the eventual outcome of a project, or
even how it looks to the outside world. That

these base instincts are the fibre and
substance of American life is something I
do not believe. Americans at our worst,
not our best, ruined the season of 1994.
After twenty-one years of providing
library service to Deerfield residents in a
real- life not a fictional setting, I have
found Deerfield residents to be none of
the above. In contrast, I have seen that
their hearts and minds are in the right
place. 12,700 cardholders in a village of
17,000 tells me this is a community of
readers, intellectually alert, aware of poli
tics, socially concerned, involved with our
kids, and philosophical in outlook. Social
projects, caring about others, and a long
view of history characterizes the people I
know in this town. Is Deerfield a micro
cosm of the rest of the country? I think
so. Is that a metaphor that would ruin the
baseball season of 1994? I think not.
But it has also been my experience
that events in our lives, large and small,
are often shaped by what is worst, not
what is best, for us. Mean- spiritedness
and disparity often come to the fore and
win out in decision making. Wronghead
edness often shouts down reason and
important decisions can be based on
caprice and whim, and only our hindsight
is perfect. Maybe the men who ruined the
1994 season did mean well but by a mis
guided attempt achieved something
nobody wanted. That everyone could sit

of. A group of anti-intellecutal, small-mind
ed nobodies with a lot of money wrecked
the season and we all yawned. It is said
that humor is the only trait that separates
man from the rest of the animal kingdom
and that it protects us from catastrophe.
Sometimes it’s hard to laugh.
The book I am recommending this
month is The Lawyer’s Chambers by
Lowell Komie. This collection of short sto
ries is Lowell's third book and I recom
mend it highly. If you haven't read Lowell
Komie you are missing one of the best of
today's writers. Mr. Komie is not just a
good writer, or a talented one, Lowell is a
great writer whose stories touch at the
heart of all of us. Lowell writes in a very
difficult genre to master—the short story;
when he succeeds, which is often, he
rewards us all with his art.

Winter, 1992-93
Across the
Librarian's Desk
T
his month ends my twentieth year at
the Deerfield Public Library. Many
people have asked about the changes
I've seen in those short twenty years.
There have been tremendous observable
physical changes: Lake Cook Road was a
two lane country road, no Northbrook
Court, you could park
alone Deerfield and
w I wonder
Waukegan Roads in the
what the
downtown area, of course
future
holds
the gun club blasted away
for
us?
M
every weekend and a pony
ride farm was located
there. The schools were growing to cope
with a burgeoning student body (some
things have come full circle), and I could
ride my bicycle out my back door all the
way to Crystal Lake and never see a car.
Traffic now defines us. Sara Lee, a good
neighbor for forty years, is gone and the
fragrance of the evening baking only a
memory. The brickyard and the boat storage
is forgotten by most of us. Volkswagen of
North America was headquartered in
Deerfield, but they left before the Lake Cook
Corridor developed.
DEERFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY
Effects of System Budget Cuts
n the last issue of "Browsing" the
State of Illinois Budget cuts for
Library Systems were discussed.
Many residents have asked how those
cuts are affecting service at the Deerfield
Public Library. The services were
previously delivered by the North
Suburban Library System but now the
Deerfield staff must do all the leg and
paper work.
i
has been seriously disrupted. A long-term
solution will be to develop a new
magazine directory, new computer
products giving access and locations,
additional local spending, and increased
reliance on local networking. This will cost
Deerfield money at the local level and
deflect resources. What these costs are
will be determined by experience over the
next year.
The service cuts have a direct impact upon
delivery of magazine articles, books, and
audio visual materials Deerfield does not
own. Right now the Library is coping by
using the telephone to arrange direct loans
and access to non-library materials. The
North Suburban Library System has
instituted new protocols and procedures
for sharing other libraries' collections and
is in the process of compiling a computer
product to aid this sharing.
Students of all ages, retirees, working
people, and businesses have all felt the
cuts. Many residents have voiced anger at
library staff for cuts the staff had no voice
in making. The Library does not have
unlimited resources to make up this
shortfall. The question of whether or not
the measures detailed above will return
library services to the levels we used for
twenty years is as yet unanswered. What
is known is that the way we are currently
coping will the shortfall is ineffective and
expensive, often resulting in patron
disappointment. A patchwork fix will not
replace coordinated statewide efforts. ■
These are stop gap measures at best
because service levels and resident
satisfaction have been reduced.
Coordinated and systematic library service

much Deerfield has remained as it was:

seven day loan period for the first
6 months that the library owns it.
♦ You may borrow up to 6 compact

10 discount stores, out-of-town outlets

I would never have expected that our school
age population would rise again, but it is
surely doing so, nor would I have predicted
all the traffic, yet Lake Cook and Waukegan
Roads seem to be the axle of the universe on
any given rush hour. Computers have
entered our lives and the library too— never
to go away, I assume. My old departed friend
Sam Fosdick used to say that Deerfield
would become merely a collection of "real
estate offices, hair parlors, and grocery
stores" as suburbia moved beyond us to the
western suburbs and our real shopping was
done elsewhere. I wonder.

The residents have made the Library an
interesting career for me. I have gotten to
know so many of them— they have
stimulated and guided me, they have made
this job worthwhile. The many children I
helped twenty years ago are now adults and
give me my greatest satisfaction. I wonder if
the next twenty years will go past as quickly
as the first? As to the future, I haven't got a
clue except I know it won't be boring. ■

BROWSING
at the DEERFIELD
PUBLIC LIBRARY
920 Waukegan Rd.
Deerfield, IL 60015
Winter 1989-90
Vol. 5, No. 1
the
e *De4h
A hearty welcome to the new North
Suburban Library System Director, Sarah
Long. Sarah has had an interesting library
career, including a stint in England. She
comes to our local system from Portland,
Oregon. Sarah is quite well known in the
world of libraries, and we are fortunate to
have her as head of NSLS. I wish her all the
best in the coming years. The nice part is
that she is a Deerfield resident.
The book I am recommending this month
is Among Schoolchildren, by Tracy Kidder.
When you think of fine creative writing,
fiction is usually what comes to mind; but
I feel that some of our most creative writers
today are writing in the non-fiction tradi
tion. Four are John McPhee, Richard
Rhodes, Paul Fussell, and Tracy Kidder.
Together they have written nearly forty
books—all of them fine, creative writingall fascinating.
Some of the recent titles are: John
McPhee—Outcroppings, Rising from the
Plains, Heirs of General Practice. Richard
Rhodes—Farm, The Making ofthe Atomic
Bomb, The Last Safari. Paul Fussell—
Wartime, Thank God for the Atom Bomb,
and interestingly, a book about my all-time
favorite author, Siegfried Sasson’s Long
Journey. Tracy Kidder has back-to-back
best sellers in his books House and Among
Schoolchildren. These are outstanding
books.
Among Schoolchildren traces the yearly
accomplishments of a very uncommon
grade school teacher as she practices her
skill among seriously deprived fifth
graders. Kidder captures the daily
classroom life, the interaction of the
children and the caring that the teacher,
Mrs. Zajac, brings to each child and each
day. The Chicago Tribune described this
book as “stirring hearts and minds...in the
necessary, caring heroism of a dedicated
fifth grade teacher.
This genre of creative non-fiction is not
a new phenomenom, but these writers bring
enormous talent, style, and craft to bear on
a type of book too frequently overlooked.
I urge you to read one of their books.
Talking Books for the Reading Disabled
The Deerfield Library participates in the
Library of Congress National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. This is a free national library
program for visually and physically
handicapped persons who are unable to
read or use standard printed material
because of blindness, visual disabilities, or
physical limitations.
The National Library Service produces
full length books and magazines on recorded disc and cassette and in braille. Special
cassette and record players are provided in
order to listen to these books. Persons who
fill out an application (signature from a certifying authority verifying their physical
difficulty is required by law) may enroll in
Deerfield’s talking book program. They
may borrow from a variety of 27,000 titles
on disc and tape, as well as over 8,000 titles
from the regional braille library.
The options include popular interest
books, best sellers, classics, mysteries,
westerns, romances, poetry, histories,
biographies, music instruction, children’s
books, and foreign language materials. Participants may also subscribe to more than
70 popular magazines in recorded format
and in braille. They may request specific
books, or may select from a variety of
catalogs. Participation in the program ineludes free, no time limit, use of the special
special playback equipment and a free talking book catalog mailed to the residence six
times a year. All of these special books on
tape go through the mail postage free.
Headphones and pillow phones are also
available.
To apply for this service, contact a
librarian or Nancy Faulk at the Circulation
Desk.
Deerfield Library’s regional source for
these materials is the Suburban Audio
Visual Service of The North Suburban
Library System.
In addition to this special National
Library Service, the library has a substantial large print book collection, and an
increasing number of audio cassette books
on tape that can be played on regular
cassette tape players. These in-house collections, of course, require only your Deerfield Library card,

and Janet Lamoureux, Treasurer. Serving
on the board with the officers are Natalie
Fields, Florence Shay, Bea Karey and Jim

Oast
As the decade comes to a close, and holi
day time brings us thoughts of good will to
all, we would like to express publicly our
thanks to some Deerfield residents who
have given of themselves and worked hard,
(some behind the scenes), to bring better
library service and/or programs to the com
munity. Our 1989 library angels are: Bill
Bixby, Virginia & Nick Carter, Tom
Jester, Richard Lyon, Bob McClarren, and
Steve Neulander.
Also a note of thanks and a happy new^B
year to our Library Board of Trustees who
work long hours with no pay for the benefit
of Deerfield Public Library. Their names
are on page four.
�Staff Changes
Rick Bean, reference librarian at Deer
field Library for over four years, has left
become a reference librarian at DePaul
niversity. Mr. Bean, well known to many
Deerfield patrons, accomplished a number
of professional duties at the library includ
ing valuable assistance in the preparation of
the online catalog for public use, a Business
Resources Index and public relations
activities.
Two librarians, Cindy Wargo and Karen
Hicks (no relation to Jack) are now sharing
the position vacated by Mr. Bean. Cindy
and Karen are not new to the library as they
formerly shared part time weekend posts at
the reference desk. Both are Deerfield
residents, hold masters’ degrees in library
science from the University of Illinois, are
married and have young children. Cindy’s
past experience includes 11 years at
Evanston Public Library where she was
Head of the Reference Department. Karen
was a librarian at Maine West High School
in Des Plaines for six years, and reference
librarian at Cook Memorial Public Library
for 2Vi years.
Tom Sherman, newly appointed Head of
Building Maintenance, was a page at the
Deerfield Library for 6 months prior to his
appointment. His diverse background inudes gardening at the Botanic Gardens,
>use painting, and selling at Kroch’s and
Brentano’s bookstore.

Cindy Wargo
Tom Sherman
New Software Programs
The Youth Services Department has
some new software available for patron use
on the Apple HE. Among the programs are:
“Curious George Goes Shopping” —
Children become involved in helping
George find various items on his shopping
list.
“Math Rabbit” — As they play circus
games, children develop skills in counting,
adding, subtracting and recognizing
number relationships.
“Where in Europe Is Carmen San
Diego?” — Older children will enjoy track
ing down a thief in one of 34 European
countries.
Saturday Stories
Kindergarteners and first graders are in
vited to the popular Saturday Stories which
will be held December 16 and February 10.
These sessions are similar to the preschool
storyhours but feature longer, more com
plicated stories and often a short craft
project. There will be separate registration
for each program, beginning one week
prior to the program.
An additional 100 people per month
are taking advantage of reciprocal borrow
ing arrangements of the North Suburban
Libraries. (This permits members of other
communities to borrow Deerfield books—
and vice versa.) They’re borrowing at a
rapid rate. Monthly borrowing for all items
at Deerfield continues to average a steady
22,000.
Literally hundreds of junior high
students visited the library for instruc
tion/orientation in Fall.
The library’s Harold Gershowitz
November program elicited the following
response from an attendee “This was a
great moment for me. Moment means the
hour plus spent here.’’ The charismatic
local author of best seller “Remember This
Dream” donates all proceeds from his book
to the Holocaust Memorial Fund. The book
was 10 years in the writing, in long hand
on a legal pad during weekends.
Need a tax write off? The Youth Ser
vices Department needs used blenders,
computers, and record players in working
condition for future programs.
