Local authority says now is the appropriate time for rebrand
Douglas Council is going ahead with the rebrand of the Henry Bloom Noble Library.
The local authority said, during its meeting this afternoon, that the signs needed to be replaced and this would be the appropriate time to change it.
Initially five councillors voted against the motion but the Vice Chair of the Regeneration and Community Committee Frank Schuengel declined to take it back for further discussion.
It means the library will now be known as Douglas City Library and the replacement signage and refurbishment will be paid for from the library budget and council income.
Council Leader Claire Wells says there's been some misinformation online about the decision:

Consultation open on plans to formally recognise the heritage of Douglas Head
Drop-in session to support Isle of Man charities
Fundraiser to keep St John Ambulance emergency fleet on the road
Ayre and Michael MHKs request meeting with commissioners over rates
