James Franklin takes over from Charles Guard
Culture Vannin is looking for creative routes to better engage Islanders with Manx heritage on the web.
To achieve it, it's hired a new Online and Educational Resources officer, James Franklin - a philosophy graduate from Manchester University and Kings College London.
He intends to work with government to expand school resource provision, and looks to develop and grow the organisation's historical internet resources.
James takes over from long-standing Manx champion Charles Guard, who retired earlier this year.
He says he already has a plan in progress:
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
Looneys of Ramsey to close
Future of Belfast flights 'precarious' due to low passenger numbers
