Yes, this is exactly how I feel. Libraries and the services they offer can be an instrument for people to bring themselves out of poverty and for people to be able to grow and advance through education. I personally think of it like this - if I didn't have a job, where would I "go to work every day"? If I didn't have an income, and I couldn't get a job, I could go to a library. And a library could be the key to me finding a job, or work, or making it for myself. A library is a positive place to go with something to do, when otherwise, maybe I would have nothing, which can help me. My personal desire is not to disrupt libraries, but instead the opposite - to actually extend what they do until it gives even more people a chance to start their own business, find their own careers, or simply learn and educate themselves for work or pleasure. Lest we forget, that library science is the foundation of information science!
