Her first assignment was librarian to Inter-University of the North (IUN) and later she assumed the position of Head of Technical Services. Nichols was appointed Director of Library Services in 1983; she held the position until a few months before her sudden death on March 17, 1989. *In the interim between Nichols and Bazillion, various members of the Library staff informally held the position of Director of Library Services, until Meir Serfaty, then Vice-President (Academic and Research) assumed the position. He remained Director until Bazillion was hired.

From 1971-1980 he was employed as a faculty member at Algoma University College, and from 1980-1990 he was the Library Director for that institution, as well as an associate professor of history and a member of the graduate faculty of Laurentian University. In 1990, he became the University Librarian at Brandon University, as well as an adjunct faculty member in the Department of History. During his time in Brandon, Bazillion oversaw the construction of the Brandon University library building as chair of the project-management team. He also served as a member for the following organizations: Search Committee for Dean of Arts; Board/Senate Planning and Priorities Committee; Board/Senate Budget Committee; Senate Library Committee; and the University Senate. In addition to his work for Brandon Univeristy, Bazillion also did consulting work, and in 1993, Bazillion, Braun & Associates, consultants in library design, furnishings, equipping and moving, was registered in Manitoba. Richard J. Bazillion resigned from his position as University Librarian some time during the 1995/1996 school year. B.
