Librarians do rock!! :D

Ah yes, that does sound like it's in high demand! That's good that you don't have to start from scratch!

Have you looked into the online library school option? It was what I was going to apply to if I didn't get into UofT because you can start more frequently (they have 3 start times a year so you wouldn't have to wait a whole year to apply). Here's the programme's website if you haven't checked it out: http://slisweb.sjsu.edu/ And by doing it online, you don't pay international student fees!
