Do you value the role of the teacher-librarian?

I've been pondering this summer what is my role in the school. Are teacher-librarians evolving into virtual support, facilitating just-in-time learning and acting as a partner to classroom teachers to support literacy and numeracy?

Or are we disappearing because we are still seen as bookkeepers and supervisors of a space?
