Volunteer at your school or local public library shelving books and performing other tasks.
Visit the Special Libraries Association and the American Library Association Web sites to find information on accredited education programs, curriculum, and scholarships and grants; read answers to career questions; or to locate a mentor.
Web sites such as those hosted by the American Association of Law Libraries or the Medical Library Association, can also provide career insight, job hotlines, salary surveys, and access to online discussion groups.
Take as many English, writing, and computer courses as possible while in school. Also participate in your school's debate or speech club.
Spend time using the Internet to do research on topics that interest you to hone your research skills.
