I'd start by reading "The Not So Short Introduction to Latex":

  http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/lshort/english/lshort.pdf

There's a useful wiki available at:

  http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX

that covers common questions, but for what you're doing, I'd suggest
logging onto comp.tex.tex.  It's been years since I did anything
similar, otherwise I'd post a template to get you started.
