�From the Director
By now, regular Browsing readers know I
grew up in a family of readers, my kids are
carrying on the tradition. After all, their
mother is a librarian...it’s required.
Last week, my daughter came home
from school with the Scholastic Book
Club catalog. She had circled something
on every page. After she was done, my
son took another colored pen and circled
just as many items. Now, I’m a librarian at a great library with a
robust collection! Why would I consider actually buying books?
I used this as an opportunity to find out why they want to own
books when I can check them out from the library.
My son loves all the Percy Jackson books, and my daughter loves
the series featuring “Front Desk.” They like that they have the
opportunity to take their time to read it and go back to re-read it.
They find comfort in the physical book themselves.
I was struck by that profound sentiment from my middle school-aged
children. And, I started to think about the idea of comfort. We are
entering winter in Chicagoland. Some years, it feels like the winter will
never end...gray days and bone-chilling cold. But, we have all found
ways to comfort ourselves. In my family, it’s with books. Winter is the
perfect time to hunker down and find comfort in the small things in
life. Happy reading!
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
Individually, they both replied that they like owning their own
books, especially if it’s a title that they particularly enjoyed.
The Wide World of Video at DPL
While the big world of video is always
in season, for many people, winter is a
time they ramp up their video viewing
and gaming. To help you prepare, we
want to make sure you know about
the rich collections (physical and
streaming) available for your winter
entertainment.
Video Games
Are you one of the 227 million in the
U.S. that play video games, solo and
with others? Per a 2021 report of the
Entertainment Software Association,
players say gaming inspires, provides
mental stimulation, and relieves stress.
Our library has a large collection of
games for Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series
X, Xbox One, Wii, and WiiU.
DPL staff is happy to help you discover
new games in our diverse collection.
Multimedia Librarian Ted Gray, who
oversees the video game collection,
loves the sports games like MLB The
Show, and FIFA. Also, the big open
world games like Skyrim, Fallout, and
Red Dead Redemption. Adult Services
Librarian Anne Jamieson recommends
Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Stardew
Valley, and Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.
For info on the newest additions to
the collection, visit deerfieldlibrary.

Ted’s favorite themes is “Don’t Travel with
Tom Hanks” which includes Castaway, Sully,
Captain Phillips, and Apollo 13.

and Television Shows)
For the streaming formats, you can search
for specific titles through our catalog. But
you also might enjoy browsing through the
digital collections online. It’s easy to link to at
deerfieldlibrary.org/movies.
Roku
The Roku provides one of the simplest ways
to stream entertainment to your TV. DPL
patrons can access popular TV shows and
movies from Netflix, Hulu, Acorn, and Disney+, and view our digital collection of over
500 movies through the Vudu app.
The Roku comes with simple setup instructions, and you can also watch the “Get Started”
video at deerfieldlibrary.org/roku.
Convert your 8mm, VHS to digital
We offer equipment for converting various
types of media into digital files (video, audio,
and photos). Even better, our staff will help
you get started. Equipment includes:
n
8mm and Super 8 film
n
Audio cassettes
n
Non-copyrighted CD / DVD
n
Film (35mm strips, mounted slides,
and medium format strips)
n
Photographs up to 8.5” × 11.7”
n
VHS tapes
n
Vinyl records
We can also convert video from various types
of video cameras.
DPL Patron Jeanne Schlax has been utilizing
the MakerSpace to digitize her collection of
80+ 8mm home movies. “We have footage
going back to the 1950s. It’s important to
convert the films before they fade and get too
brittle,” said Jeanne. “The library staff has been
very helpful training on the equipment, and I
learn more each visit. This gives me peace of
mind that our family stories can continue to
be shared for generations to come.”

funds for the new Browsing Bins in Youth Services. Stay tuned for
more projects to come!
• Thank you: As always, we owe a big thank you to our shelving
volunteers for all their hard work sorting, organizing and keeping our
book store shelves full for our patrons. Their dedication is what makes
our sale corner so inviting. One of our veteran volunteers has made a
weekly trip to bring books to commuters at the train station for over
10 years, and our thanks go to him as well.
• Friends’ Book Store: The Store is stocked with children’s books, cookbooks, travel books, reference works and fiction. These used books are
in excellent condition and make great gifts year round. We are proud
that 98% of our sales go directly to support programs at the Library.

24, 7:00 p.m., in the Library lower level meeting rooms. Visitors are
always welcome.

Back to School!
5 Fab E- resources
for Youth & Teens
(details on page 2)
�After the lazy days of summer and the smells of
environmentally safe sunscreen, it’s time to get back
to school. I have always ei\joyed shopping for the start
of school-picking out folders and new crayons. DPL
is a great resource for your students to help them
with their homework all year long!
I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that I grew up
appreciating libraries, learning, and books. I
remember heading to our local library so that I could
use a variety of resources, like encyclopedias,
biographies, and almanacs, to work on school reports.
I also remember taking my whole Saturday morning
to do this research, with my parents dropping me at
the library and then going through all those
resources! How much more convenient it would have
been for me, and honestly my parents, if we were able
to simply use an e-resource?
We offer a variety of online resources that supplement
our print collection. All these resources are available
with your DPL card. If it has been a while since
you’ve updated your card, stop by the library during
the 69 hours we’re open each week and the staff will
be happy to take care of that. After that, the
resources are yours to use!
Amy Falasz-Peterson, Library Director
DPL is your online Answer Place!
School has started, which means the homework projects are lining up. We can help with that! While we love to see you in-person,
you don’t need to come to the library to take advantage of the online resources we offer for researching a topic for a paper,
homework help, connecting with a tutor, or learning a new language.
Here is an introduction to a few of our dynamic online resources. You can find these, and many more, on the Library website at
deerfieldlibrary.org/online-resources.
HQ Research Projects
No more heavy (book) lifting
required when researching for a paper,
preparing for a classroom discussion, or
lining up resources for the debate team.
Encyclopedia Britan nica online
gives you three sites in one: Children;
Young Adults; and the Reference Center
for older students and adults. Choose the
level that works best for your research.
This is a great resource for exploring
the rich and varied history of the United
States through speeches, historical
accounts, memoirs, poems, images,
and multimedia,
ScholasticGo: Eveiy topic search
provides results at four different reading
levels. This easy-to-navigate resource
includes more than 80,000 vetted
websites, topographical, historical, and
current interactive maps, videos, and
multiple dictionaries. ScholasticGo was
developed to help students strengthen
content knowledge, vocabulary, and core
proficiency skills.
2
Facts on File/Issues &
Controversies: Contains more than
800 articles on current events issues
written for students, including pro/con
articles, debate videos, guidance on
evaluating online sources, and more.
Ib ensure objective coverage and a
wide range of competing viewpoints, the
editors rely on hundreds of leading print
and electronic news sources from the
United States and around the world.
Homework Help
Everyone has a different
learning style, and you’ll be sure to find
the right fit with this resource.
Brainfuse HelpNow: Come here
for help from real, live tutors online!
Assistance is available for math, science,
social studies or English. Tutors are
available for Kindergarten - 12th grade,
college introduction level students, and
adult learners, seven days a week from
2:00-9:00 pan. CT. You can also take
advantage of the Writing Lab for online
writing assistance, and skills testing.
jj|[] Learn a Language
v
Learning a foreign language
contributes to cognitive development and
also offers an advantage in the future of
our global marketplace.
Mango Languages: You’ll eqjoy this
interactive platform to learn one or more
of over 50 languages including Hindi,
Mandarin Chinese, Russian, and Urdu.
ESL courses are available in 17 native
languages.
Little Pim: This program is specifically
designed to teach kids foreign languages
at the age they learn best: birth to age
6. Languages offered include Arabic,
French, German, Hebrew, Italian,
Japanese, Russian, and Spanish. English
is also available for Spanish speakers.
It won’t take long to learn how to
make the most of the Library’s online
resources. If you need help, just ask a
DPL Librarian!

�We thought it would be interesting to share some
statistical highlights of 2017. Following the trend for
public libraries nationwide, there is a very small
decline in our total circulation. We know that our print
collection remains popular, and our e-resources
circulation continue to grow.
What I find to be most interesting is the number of
people who still choose to come to DPL. Libraries are
the one public institution that serve people of every
age. Every day, we see people who are here enjoying a
magazine or using one of the study rooms as their
office. There are plenty of students who come to do
homework, and loads of kids enjoying the vibrant Youth
Services space. We’ve taken notice, and continue to
offer more resources and programs as our budget allows.
DPL, more than books!
