Relevance of reference material

From the definitions for reference material I believe there is still a strong need for this to remain. Not only in its traditional form but to be expanded into the digital world.
Firstly, the reference material needs to be considered a continuing part of a modern library because of rare collections. Not everything is available on the internet and students need to be made aware of this. The internet is one place to search.
Secondly, the definitions mentioned (as have other posts) the use of the librarian as a reference source (material).
Finally, the Teacher Librarian can create a website / page / pathfinder containing valuable reference material for the students.
