Thank you for your question. The Canadian Library
Association site has a good summary of the two programs
which will prepare you for working in a library.
http://www.cla.ca/infonation/welcome.htm You seem to be thinking of the library technician
program. This will require you to apply to one of the
library technician programs in Canada and begin your studies
towards a two year Library Technician Program Diploma. The
following link is to the Southern Alberta Institute of
Technology, SAIT, site for their Library Information
Technology program:

library, please refer to the following site for the Canadian
Association for School Libraries:
http://www.cla.ca/casl/literacyneeds.html This site specifies that there are different kinds of
work in a school library requiring different competencies.
"Teacher-librarian: A professional teacher with a
minimum of two years of successful classroom experience and
additional qualifications in the selection, management and
utilization of learning resources, who manages the school
library and works with other teachers to design and
implement resource-based instructional programs.
Support staff: Under the direction of a
teacher-librarian, may include graduates of a post-secondary
library technician program who organize and maintain the
resources and equipment and provide reference and technical
support services to teachers and students; clerical staff
who provide support services in areas such as acquisition,
circulation, and processing of resources, shelving and
filing of materials, and typing or word processing; adult
and student volunteers."
The training you will require depends on what kind of
work you want to do within the library. As you continue your
research, take some time to explore the Canadian Library
Association site and the diverse kinds of work in libraries.
