 Please remember to bring in Sentry Foods receipts as the library receives 1% of the total. "We receive a substantial amount of money; we are very appreciative of Sentry Foods giving back to the Delafield Public Library," said library director Terry Zignego.  A donation jar is located just inside the library entrance.  Receipts must be less than six months old.  Thank you Friends of the Delafield Public Library and Sentry Foods.
Jennifer's Library Staff Pick:
Unaccountable:
What Hospitals Won't Tell You 
and How Transparency Can Revolutionize HealthCare
unaccountable    Jennifer Klett
How do you as a consumer, choose a physician? or a hospital?  This book by Marty Makary, MD, reveals insider jaw-dropping information on our health care system, many of it kept from those not privy to health care industry "secrets". For example: 
~Doctors are usually paid commission on chemotherapy, drugs consumers are not allowed to shop around for. 
~Medical mistakes are the fifth-leading cause of death in the U.S. 
~Many patients who are candidates for minimally-invasive surgery are never told of their options. 
Recently discussed on Wisconsin Public Radio, it is hard to put this book down - it is a must-read for every potential health-care consumer.
