[Abbymoulton]

Does anyone know of any online links to the local newspapers in the Presque Isle, Caribou, Limestone, Fort Kent,etc. areas???????
Moving sooner than we thought and will need to find some work.

Not sure about links, but the Presque Isle paper is called "The Star Herald" and the Caribou paper is "The Aroostook Republican." They are both published by Northeast Publising in PI

The Aroostook Republican and The Star Herald do not have an online version. If you want DM me your address and I will pick one up in the morning and pop it in the mail for you right away. May be a few days, but better than nothing. Let me see if my scanner is going to co-operate and I'll see if I can scan the help wanted section and e-mail it to you.

[Bydand]

[Mainer61]

Do you know of any, or who I could contact?
