The Lynnfield Public Library is a Climate Resilience Hub! What does this mean? As climate change makes extreme weather worse and less predictable, emergency services are increasingly overstretched. Climate Resilience Hubs help prepare residents before emergencies strike, so that residents are equipped and know what to do. We will be working with CREW, which stands for Climates Responding to Extreme Weather, to share important information and hold educational events about climate preparedness. In addition to sharing important information about emergency preparedness, the Lynnfield Public Library is also a cooling center in the summer and a heating center in the winter. Enroll for CodeRED updates to be notified by the Lynnfield Emergency Management Team in the event of emergency situations or critical community alerts. Examples include: evacuation notices, bio-terrorism alerts, boil water notices, and missing child reports.
