Like many of my colleagues, I was deeply saddened to learn of Brian Campbell\u2019s death in December. In thinking about his many contributions to our profession and society, a constant thought was the disbelief that such a vital and energetic individual is no longer out there agitating, mobilizing, and mentoring.<\/p>\n

I first became aware of Brian during Vancouver\u2019s municipal election in 1974, when he was the Civic NDP\u2019s mayoralty candidate. The campaign remains one of the most revisited in the City\u2019s history\u2014not because of Brian\u2019s candidacy for the Civic NDP or Mayor Art Phillip\u2019s re-election, but rather because it featured an independent candidate: performance artist Vincent Trasov, in the guise of Mr. Peanut, with his retinue of dancing Peanettes. That campaign surfaces periodically in grainy videotape documentation<\/a>\u00a0shown at\u00a0the Vancouver Art Gallery (VAG), and you\u00a0would always get a resigned grimace from Brian when you told\u00a0him that you had seen him at the VAG. Let\u2019s just say he wasn\u2019t amused by the subversion of serious political debate by performance art.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t until the 1980s that I got to know Brian, following his graduation from library school and his employment by Vancouver Public Library to oversee the implementation of their first automated circulation system. He had entered library school at an older age than most of the other students, and in the words of one of his professors: \u201cHe arrived fully formed.\u201d Brian\u2019s oversight of VPL\u2019s computer systems was guided by his foundational beliefs in equity of access, the importance of public service, and the independence of the library in controlling its IT infrastructure.<\/p>\n

These values were reflected in partnerships between VPL and community initiatives such as Vancouver FreeNet, where he played an important leadership role. It is highly unlikely that collaborations such as providing server space to FreeNet would have been possible without Brian\u2019s interventions. This history of supporting such initiatives is still reflected in VPL\u2019s positive reception in the community. On another IT note, it was Brian who fought to have the VPL computer room on an upper floor in the (then-new) Central Library. The importance of this positioning came home to me with the sprinkler flood<\/a> in the branch last fall. The fallout from this incident could have been far more serious if the computer room had been on the lower level.<\/p>\n

Our initial connections were through working on various BCLA and CLA\u00a0committees and collaborating on conference programming. Brian\u2019s work on raising awareness of the Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI) in the mid-1990s had international implications as the debate migrated to the WTO treaties. By the late 1990s I was on the IFLA\u00a0Copyright and other Legal Matters Committee, and with Brian\u2019s support we were able to secure funding from IFLA (and others). Two major studies were commissioned from Canadian experts on the implications for libraries with international agreements on public sector services including libraries. We were together in Seattle during the WTO \u201cBattle in Seattle,\u201d with Brian representing CLA and me IFLA. The NGO accreditation we had afforded us a level of access to negotiators\u00a0which\u00a0today would be inconceivable.<\/p>\n

As well as being partially inside, we were on the streets as well, where Brian\u2019s connections and instincts paid significant dividends while my better knowledge of downtown Seattle streets helped keep us out of trouble. I note that the only time I have smelled tear gas was in Brian\u2019s company.<\/p>\n

In hindsight I believe that Brian\u2019s information policy work\u2014with his emphasis on coalition building outside the profession\u2014was his greatest contribution to libraries. His presence is reflected in the policy work that BCLA continues to this day. This is not to downplay his role in other areas, which included championing intellectual freedom, but with information policy he really was the instigator.<\/p>\n

Brian and I worked closely together at VPL from 2003 to his retirement. I believe his greatest achievement in this period was his leadership with the pan Canadian Working Together Project<\/a>. He\u00a0provided the vision for developing inclusive, user-directed library services and played the central role in securing federal funding. The Project\u2019s mission statement says it best: \u201cThe library should be an expression of its community\u2019s vision and creativity; this can only happen if we involve them actively in decision-making and planning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brian was a powerful presence and his personality was multi-faceted. He had a deep love for his family and displayed empathy with others on numerous occasions. He engendered deep loyalty in many of his colleagues and feuded with a few. He was exacting and had a reputation as a \u201ctask master,\u201d but he only expected from others what he himself was prepared to give. The VPL management support group members told a joke at his retirement party which he found funny: \u201cWe were going to invite Brian\u2019s former assistants to the party, but BC Place Stadium wasn\u2019t available.\u201d This reminds me of his sense of humour and his great laugh. He was a dedicated bicycle commuter long before bike lanes; just one example of his demonstrating his commitment to his beliefs in tangible ways. Whatever his accomplishments, from his perspective it was never about him but rather it was about the next injustice to battle.<\/p>\n

Brian was unique, but his focus on mentoring and establishing advocacy, partnership, and policy frameworks ensured that his influence endures. In our corner of the world he was librarianship\u2019s social conscience. His ideas and vision continue.<\/p>\n
