You succeeded, but didn't Critical, in your Library Use roll. According to the errata (no doubt posted somewhere the Internet-enabled can get it), Visibility is a ranged spell.

Can you explain the logic for this capability? The only mention of fetches casting spells is while the shaman is discorporate. Given that a corporate shaman's spirit appears single, I don't think there's grounds for considering the fetch as a separate, spell-casting entity.

I see no reason you wouldn't get the answers from the rules: a part of myself, a gift from my god, a tool I constructed.
