Basically don't be complacent. Do something. Get back to basics. Everyone wants to be a special snowflake librarian because we're told we need to be. That's a lie perpetuated by the library hipster industrial complex.
Hone those traditional librarian skills and fill that practical librarian role.

I've been calling those people Twitter Douche Librarians, but that is a much better term!

Definitely pros and cons in both. Prefer the more relaxed public environment, though.
