Easier than ever!
Have you had an opportunity to get cozy with a
book in one of the new easy chairs in the library?
The addition of more comfy chairs is in response
to requests received from many community
members since the Grand Reopening last
summer. Here are other examples of our
continuing commitment to listening, and making
your Library experience easier:
You asked for a more convenient library card
option. It’s here! If you have a smartphone,
you can load your card into a convenient
app, and leave the card at home.
Did you know that ALL locations in the
Library are Wi-Fi Hot Spots? And you can
print right from your device as well.
Laptop lending is now available! Deerfield
cardholders can borrow a laptop for
in-Library use.
All programs and meeting room events are
now shown on the online calendar. So
whether you are coming for a Library
program, or for your club or homeowner
association meeting, you can easily confirm
the date, time, and location from anywhere,
at any time.
Check on page 11 for more information on
these fabulous new services that will
streamline your library experience.
We aren’t done yet! We are still working to make
the Library cozier, and add the finishing touches
that will make it feel more warm and welcoming.
Changes being considered include artwork,
plants, footrests, more soft seating, and accent
lighting. Watch for these continuing
improvements throughout the year. Pay us
a visit soon.

Helping our Neighbors
Next time you drop in the Library, consider dropping off some items for the
West Deerfield Township Food Pantry. Every little bit helps, as the Pantry
relies entirely on contributions to meet the year-round high demand for
basic foodstuffs, household cleaning items, and personal hygiene products
that the Pantry provides free of charge.
The Food Pantry serves over 250 township residents each month who find
themselves in need, either on a long-term or temporary basis. Many are
seniors who live on fixed incomes, while others are families with children.
Starting March 1, you can drop off your donations in the Libraiy’s lobby
(no glass, please).
Food Pantry Wish List:
• Canned protein (tuna, chicken,
salmon, beans)
• Side dish mixes (rice, potato,
pasta)
• Toilet paper
• Paper towels
• Juice
• Canned fruit
• Soup
• Peanut butter
• Laundry detergent (small size)
The Library food drive will run from March 1 through March 23. Your
donations will be delivered to the Pantry, where bags of food and personal
items, as available, are ready for pick up on the first or third Thursday of
each month. Anyone with an urgent need for assistance, however, may call
or visit the Township office any business day.
WELCOME OUR NEW BOARD MEMBERS
The Deerfield Public Library Board of Trustees recently completed
the selection process, and appointed two new members
to fill open seats on the Board. Luisa Ellenbogen and
Seth Schriftman will serve until the next election in 2015.

The Mystery ofthe World’s
Most Expensive Bottle of Wine
by Benjamin Wallace
Tuesday, March 4, 7:00pm @ Whole Foods Market
Deerfield I Adults 21 years and older
In 1985, at a heated auction by
Christie’s of London, a 1787
bottle of Chateau Lafite
Bordeaux, unearthed from a
bricked-up Paris cellar and
supposedly owned by Thomas
Jefferson, went for $156,000 to
a member of the Forbes family.
But rumors about the bottle
soon arose. Why wouldn’t the
seller reveal the exact location where it had been
found? Was it part of a smuggled Nazi hoard? Did
his reticence conceal a dark secret? Join us to
discuss this real-life mystery, followed by a wine
and cheese tasting presented by Whole Foods
Market, 760 Waukegan Road, Deerfield. Sign up

Promises Kept
Our year-long construction project to
bring you a 21st Century library is nearly
complete. We’ll be closing the doors at
7 N. Waukegan Road on Friday, May 24 at
6pm. We look forward to greeting you at
our Grand Reopening on Sunday, June
23 at 1:00pm. After a brief ribbon cutting
ceremony and words of greeting, we will
invite the community in to experience
the Library like never before. Want to
see the whole thing, and hear about all
the new features? Guided tours will
show you around. Use one of our new
laptop computers to explore the world.
Share our new Preschool Pavilion with
your children. Curl up with your favorite
read and enjoy the silence of our Quiet
Area for adults. Have a few overdue
books or movies? Enjoy fees and fines
amnesty for the entire first week we
are open.
The Board members and I want to thank
you for your support and patience
throughout the Library Improvement
Project. We believe you will agree it has
been worth it - with a refreshed Library
space, and informed staff members
ready to serve you. And the physical
Library isn’t the whole story - ask about
our virtual services, available whenever
and wherever you are.
We hope you will agree that the renewed
Deerfield Public Library represents
“promises kept” to our community.
We look forward to seeing you on
June 23!

Trustees

Shout out to Michael Carniello and Mindy

Thanks to our good friends at TRAX for their

Claire Johnson,
8th grader at
Holy Cross, is the
winner of the
new Children’s
Library card
design contest!
Claire is an avid
Library user who
“reads, reads
and reads”—
which is how she
got the idea for the award-winning design.
Claire’s was one of almost 80 entries. These
were pared down to six semi-finalists and we
asked the community to vote for their
favorite. Young people 18 and under will be
able to exchange their old cards for this new
design, and adult patrons will be able to
exchange their cards for the new adult design
featuring the renovated Library building very
soon. Check the website for more details.
