WHAT'S NEW IN HERC?

"HERC closing? Say it ain't so!"

  • Yes, unfortunately it IS so. After a long and successful run serving countless educators, organizations, and residents across the state, it has been decided to disestablish and close Maine HERC as of December 31, 2008. This decision was made jointly by the Maine Department of Education and the Maine Nutrition Network.

  • We will continue to loan resources as usual until further notice! Keep your orders coming!! But at this time I have no more information to share; I have posted all that I know and have been told. Please continue to monitor this site for future details or changes.

  • If you have any questions/concerns/comments beyond what I have already posted, please contact the  following directly:
