In the mid 1980s, he served as Chief Librarian to the Council of Europe.[1] Early yearsHavard-Williams received degrees from universities in Wales and Oxford.[1] In 1949, he wrote Thought and Sense in the Philosophy of Saint Thomas Aquinas as his Master's thesis at the University College of Swansea. CareerHavard-Williams held senior posts in the libraries of Swansea University and the University of Liverpool. In 1956, he was appointed Librarian of New Zealand's University of Otago where he planned for the construction of a large library building, and served as editor of the University of Otago Press.[2] For a decade, starting in 1961, he was University Librarian at Queen's University Belfast in Belfast, Northern Ireland, succeeding Jack Jacob Graneek. In 1964, while at Queen's, Havard-Williams founded the School of Library Studies (afterwards the School of Library and Information Studies, SLIS) and also served as its Director.[3] Between 1971 and 1972, he was Dean and Professor in Ottawa University's Library School. From 1972 until 1987, he was founding Professor and Head of Department at Loughborough University's Department of Library and Information Studies. It was here that he developed undergraduate and postgraduate programs that gave British librarians the specific knowledge and skills needed in a profession that had become increasingly more technology-based. After spending two years serving as a consultant and Chief Librarian to the Council of Europe in 1986-87, he received an appointment as Professor and Head of Department of Library and Information Studies at the University of Botswana in 1988.[1] {{Quote box| quote = "It is evident in the last decade that the importance of standards has been enhanced, partly from a need for economy and efficiency, but also because of the development of information services, the increase in their importance in modern technological society, and hence their increased contact with technology itself -- in particular, with computer processing."

M. Brittain, BL R & D report 5712, 1982).
