向楼主汇报最新进展：
今早去新东方视听，预备报新托福强化班，学费不菲，俩半月1790刀。效果好不好，只有天知道。如果报麦大英语班，共6级（一年），1900刀/级，全念下来绝对是天文数字了。
我看了东亚2008年度招生简章，发现语言要求没变，但statement难度提高了一大截，更加侧重考察报考人的学术能力。因英语烂，怕理解有误，现将该段文字翻成中文，请楼主指正。
The research statement (approximately 500 words for Master's and 5 pages for Ph.D.）should indicate potential supervisor, the field in which the applicant wishes to pursue, and the reasons for applying to the program. A description of the proposed research project, with brief bibliography, should be included.[研究申请（硕士500字，博士5页）应指明可能的论文导师，申请人希望研究的领域，以及申请该专业的缘由。同时提交一份研究计划，附列主要参考书目]
另，我听新东方人介绍，如今都改新托福了（他们的课就是针对ETS），而麦大语言要求仍然是老托福或机考，或雅思，不可以考新托福？需多少分呢？请楼主指点。

对。东亚系主要老师你可去系里网站看看有没有你感兴趣的专业和导师。Ken 搞民间道教。Grace 搞中国文学和诗歌。有几个是搞日本和韩国研究的。 老托福一般要600分。我当时读MA就是600。

我浏览了一下，特别看了中心的学术简报（2007），发现各位在读或申读PHD同学的论文选题各具特色，涉猎广泛。麦大果然不凡，特重学术创新。
建议楼主若得空，把麦大的求学经历回忆一二，广布坛上，以供后学憧憬、以励后生追随。

你主要要学习英文,在蒙特利而你必须会法文.否则连VOLUNTEER的工作也做不了.

在多伦多,可以上COLLEGE的Library and Information Technician Program (4个学期,不容易),或是参加CO-OP,就是先上WORKSHOP(8周)然后在图书馆实习(10周左右),看有没有机会留下来,或继续找工作.估计在蒙称也一样.
我本人就在多伦多读这个专业,国内也在图书馆上班.

谢谢TSGZH。家园里总是有很多的热心人，让我感觉出去似乎也不孤独了。再请教一下：co-op在哪可以申请？有没有相关网址？

蒙特利尔的图书馆要法文是强制性的,而且魁北克的工作机会比安省少得多,象你这样的背景在魁省没太大用,因为你做的是中文CATALOG.而人家要的是法文CATALOG.我的一个同事被LAYOFF后在魁省国家图书馆做了三年PARTTIME今年才有机会转FULLTIME.而他是地道的魁北克人.所以你要想做回本行,只有读MLIS一条.

谢谢NewEngland中肯的建议！我也不是特别喜欢CATALOG，做了11年了，感觉也很乏味。可是我不知道过去之后我还可以做什么，重新学个什么专业也不知道可以选什么，学了之后就业怎么样。还要带着孩子过去，LG也还暂时留在国内，所以很是烦恼啊

在北美只有大学有中文的CATALOG,但你要到大学工作,MLIS是必须的,还要看你有没有这个运气.

还是看看可不可以学点其他的，看来干本行的机会很小啊。真心谢谢NewEngland1

还要请教一下：在蒙除了麦大之外，还有哪个学校可以读MLIS或者college也行？
