I do not believe Teacher Librarians (TLs) are an endangered species. I believe the role of TLs is evolving and ever-changing in the digital world. The digital platform has created vast opportunities for TLs to move away from their perceived traditional roles to incorporate digital literacy and become sources of information technology knowledge. TLs are not limited to face-to-face and print literacy but can also support students worldwide. There are many platforms to support students in their needs. We might assist students via zoom, live chat, or media applications. I agree with Bonanno (2015, p.15) that the role of a Teacher Librarian is still crucial for students’ academic achievements.
