Bishop went on to obtain his undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan in Classics in 1892 and then earned his master’s degree the following year. He taught Greek and Latin from the time he graduated until 1902 (Sparks, 1978).〔Sparks 1978〕 He was an instructor at Missouri Wesleyan College, Garrett Biblical Institute in Evanston, Illinois and even had the opportunity to spend a year in Rome between 1898-1899 studying Greek and Latin. While he taught he usually worked part-time in the academic libraries (Kaser, 1956).〔Kaser 1956〕 He originally thought that he would like to have a career in education but found himself instead drawn to a career working to improve the quality of library services (Sparks, 1978).〔 Bishop went on to work at Princeton University where he was in charge of cataloging and was also as librarian from 1902-1907 (Sparks, 1978).〔 He then worked as superintendent of the reading room at the Library of Congress during the years spanning 1905-1915 (Sparks, 1978).〔 During this time Bishop married his wife Finie Murfree Burton in 1907. He and Finie had a son, William Warner Bishop Jr. Bishop accepted the position as director of Michigan Libraries in 1915. The University remained his primary place of employment until he retired in 1941. He worked as not only a Director but he also worked to help create a Library Science program of study which became a reality in 1926 (Sparks, 1993).〔
