FRYEBURG — Just what impact will cutting $12,000 from the library budget have? “Services are being cut and curtailed,” said Emily Fletcher, librarian at the Fryeburg Public Library. “The people who need it most will be hurt.” The cut is in the 2012 budget the selectmen are presenting at town meeting Wednesday night, and the reduction is very specific. “They are cutting eight hours of service,” Fletcher said, although the decision has yet to be made whether the library will close an extra day a week or whether it will be open the same number of days with reduced hours. The Fryeburg Public Library is currently open Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, a total of 39 hours. see FRYEBURG page 8

CONWAY — Efficiency often gets the short shrift in debates about energy. U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is hoping to change that by sponsoring a bipartisan bill that she says would deliver several incentives to business. see SHAHEEN page 8
