Maine to restart interlibrary loan program next month
The delivery service that moves library materials across Maine will resume Sept. 3, months after it was suspended because of a contract dispute.

Libraries were notified in June that the popular interlibrary loan service would be suspended while the state heard an appeal from Freedom Xpress Inc., a Brewer-based company that handled the deliveries for 12 years but was not awarded a new contract. Ultimately, an appeals board upheld the Maine State Library’s decision to give the contract to STAT Courier, a national library courier company based in Missouri.
Maine State Librarian Lori Fisher said in a statement Monday that the van delivery service “has been deeply missed” by academic, public and school libraries that rely on interlibrary loans.
“I am grateful to the public, school and academic libraries who bore the brunt of this pause in service due to the complex legal appeal process we were required to navigate after the Request For Proposal award was announced,” Fisher said. “We heard from many Maine residents who were impacted by the disruption in service, which underscores the need for information and resource sharing statewide.”
More than 180 libraries participate in the service, with more 1 million items transported each year, according to Fisher.
The state’s bid process did not require the contract be awarded to the lowest bidder. According to the state library, STAT Courier was chosen because it provides a dedicated service – its trucks, drivers and sorters deal with library materials only – with no additional stops for other types of deliveries. The company has three sorting hubs in Maine with a process to shuttle materials between them to help with efficiency.
After Freedom Xpress filed an appeal, the Department of Administrative and Financial Services told the state library that it could not yet sign a new contract, but was able to start final negotiations to limit the amount of time the service was suspended.
Fisher said STAT Courier will officially begin van delivery service on Aug. 26. During a one-week transition period, the company will get stranded materials back to their home libraries and test new delivery routes.
After the service disruption was announced in June, library directors and patrons lamented the pause. The loss was particularly acute in rural towns, where small libraries have limited resources. Some libraries got creative to fill the gap while the appeals process was underway.
The South Portland Public Library teamed up with eight others in the area to offer a smaller version of interlibrary loans they dubbed “Mini-ME.” Kevin Davis, director of the library in South Portland, said patrons are looking forward to again having access to materials from many libraries.
“Working with our local library colleagues, we have done our best to minimize the impact created by the disruption in delivery service this summer,” he said in a statement. “However, nothing can match the selection and diversity of materials available when delivery service is fully up and running.”
PRESQUE ISLE, Maine (WAGM) – Aroostook County is mourning the loss of one of its own after a fishing vessel sank off the coast of Massachusetts, claiming the lives of seven people aboard.
Among them was Staff Sergeant Freeman Short, a fisherman from Presque Isle, whose death has sent shockwaves through both the local fishing community and the Maine Army National Guard.
The 72-foot fishing vessel Lily Jean went down roughly 25 miles off Cape Ann early last Friday morning, after its emergency beacon activated around 6:50 a.m.
According to the U.S. Coast Guard, crews launched an immediate and extensive search effort, covering more than 1,000 square miles using aircraft, cutters, and small boats in what officials described as extremely dangerous conditions.
One body was recovered Friday, but after more than 24 hours of continuous searching, the Coast Guard announced it was suspending active search efforts.
In a post shared by the Maine National Guard, Short was remembered not only as a fisherman, but as a dedicated soldier, mentor, and leader.
Short served as an Infantryman with Bravo Company, 3rd Battalion, 172nd Infantry (Mountain), joining the Guard in 2012.
He deployed to the Horn of Africa in 2021 and was posthumously promoted to Staff Sergeant.
U.S. Senator Susan Collins also paid tribute to Short, calling him “a bright light” who loved his family, the Maine outdoors, and his country. She noted that the tragedy is a stark reminder of how dangerous work at sea can be.

PORTLAND (WGME) – The Trump administration continues to investigate Medicaid spending, especially in states led by Democrats, including Maine.
Dr. Oz, the former TV doctor whose now in charge of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, has been highlighting evidence and allegations of fraud and improper spending in state-administered programs.
In a new, TV-studio-like video, Oz addresses the findings of a Maine audit that was released last month.
It found that Maine made more than $45 million in improper payments for autism services.
The investigation in this case found the payments appeared to be more the result of errors than fraud, but Oz and other federal officials have pointed to cases like this, as well as audits finding Medicaid fraud in separate cases in Maine and Minnesota, as evidence of a need for a federal crackdown.
Oz says he’s written a letter to Maine Governor Janet Mills demanding more information about how the state is preventing fraud.
Maine Olympian Frank Del Duca will be front and center on Friday as he serves as one of Team USA’s flag bearers at the Milan Cortina Olympics Opening Ceremony.
The bobsledder was chosen along with speed skater Erin Jackson to lead Team USA during the Parade of Nations. The news was announced earlier this week on “TODAY.”
Del Duca and Jackson were selected through a vote of fellow Olympic teammates led by the Team USA Athletes’ Commission.
“Erin and Frank embody the values of excellence and unity that define our Olympic Team, and we’re proud to have them lead Team USA onto the world stage,” U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee CEO Sarah Hirshland said in a statement.
Del Duca, a 34-year-old from Bethel, Maine, is a sergeant in the U.S. army stationed in Lake Placid, New York, and will become the first bobsledder to serve as a Team USA Opening Ceremony flag bearer in 70 years. He will chase his first Olympic medal in Milan Cortina after making his Olympic debut four years ago in Beijing, and he says this year’s Winter Games in Italy will be extra special.
“Being flag bearer for Team USA is an incredible honor,” Del Duca said. “It was also quite the surprise. I’m grateful for the support from my teammates, coaches and staff, Team USA, U.S. Army WCAP, family and friends, and everyone who has helped me on this journey.
“With the Olympic Games being held in Italy, it means even more. Nearly everyone in my family is of Italian descent. There is no greater honor than leading Team USA into the Opening Ceremony in Italy. It feels like a bridge between my family’s heritage, and the country I’m so proud to serve. I know my grandfather is watching over me saying, ‘Hey, Frangesch, way to go kid,’ and would be so proud.”
Del Duca is the sixth U.S. bobsledder to serve as an Olympic flag bearer.
Frank Del Duca, who competed in Beijing in 2022, is always gravitating toward the sport that pushed the limits of gravity.
Live coverage of the Opening Ceremony will begin at 2 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. Primetime coverage will begin at 8 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock.
