I bred two villagers to create a baby villager, waiting for this villager to grow up. I then locked this villager in a room with a zombie. This turned the villager into a Zombie Villager. I then gave the Zombie Villager a Name Tag in order to stop it from de-spawning. Once I had done this I turned the Zombie Villager back into a Villager and gave it a profession as a Librarian. Shortly afterwards I left the Villager and was mining roughly 4 chunks away. When I returned, the villager had vanished, despite it still being locked in the room.

Having the same issue on my sisters realm. We had a whole village built inside a building each villager had a job and traded up to expert and name tagged, well lit no doors to outside only a ladder from below for entry all had beds. Go mining or just hanging around doing chores in our houses and come back to trade and one is just gone. Couple days later two more are gone. Now we have one left from a housing of 20!
