The Hancock Town Library will hold an informational session on Wednesday, July 29, to introduce “Hancock Alerts,” a new emergency and general notification platform for local residents.
The presentation will begin at 2 p.m. at the library. Emergency Management Coordinator Ellen Moran will explain how the platform works and guide attendees through the sign-up process for text, email, or landline phone notifications. The system will deliver updates issued by the town administrator or fire department regarding public safety threats, road closures, and utility issues like water main breaks.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a smartphone, laptop, or tablet to register during the meeting. An encore presentation will take place on Thursday, Aug. 27, at 7 p.m.
The event is free and open to the public.
