Tynwald approves annual grant for two years
Government funding for the mobile and home libraries, as well as schools services, has been secured for an interim period.
It's after Tynwald approved recommendations in a report looking into the future of the services, which will see a working party set up to investigate the issue further.
An amendment, by Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer, means Family Library Limited will receive £125,000 per year, for the next two years, to provide the services.
The chair of the select committee which looked into the matter, Claire Bettison MHK, addressed members before the votes on the recommendations:
Skills Strategy hopes to tackle 'significant' skills shortage
Loganair to remove Saturday service to Birmingham
Trial for Douglas man who denies keying car
Southern Pool board welcomes assurances over site's future
