The announcements coordinator has substantial leeway as to how they want to organize announcements. Historically, the approach was that the announcements coordinator would take a fairly active role in hunting down announcements as well as receiving emailed requests from other officers. More recently, Alex experimented with using Google Docs for announcements. The idea there "Announcements" folder in the Tech Squares officers shared Google Drive folder contains one document per week, with the first page of each containing spoken announcements (for easy printing if desired) and later pages containing the draft emails. The idea of this approach is that at least a week in advance, the announcements coordinator creates a Google Doc for the next week's announcements (spoken and emailed) and populates it with the usual text that no other officer is responsible for and then lets the other officers fill in any other announcements. Then, on Monday, the announcements coordinator sends the weekly email and (if appropriate) sends the spoken announcements to whoever is doing them (potentially just by sharing the Google Doc).
