If you get a masters in Library Science you could be a librarian at a law library, or even work at a law office (just not as a lawyer).
Also you could practice law for a corporation (I work for Amgen and they have thier own law department)

I'm not sure from reading your paragraph where your interests are in law, if you could choose. You don't want to be a lawyer, but I wonder if that means you don't like a certain part of a lawyer's work, like going to court or appearing before a jury or dealing with crooks, things like that? If so, you can channel your career towards corporate law, or become a family estate attorney (wills and trusts, etc) or there are many options that would be an alternative to some of the stereotype functions of a lawyer. But to obtain a law degree and want to work with law, you have to select at least something in the general realm of practicing law. There are choices.

You could be a para-legal who often does research for lawyers. You don't even need a law degree to do it. Many lawyers can become teachers in college. I am sure there are many others.

You could work to become elected as mayor, Governor,a senator, or a congressman.

Although there are age requirements for the latter two, 25 years of age I believe.

Not sure about the requirement for a Governor or mayor.

But remember with more power comes more responsibility and misuse will not go unchecked.

I can understand why you would not want to be a lawyer but why not a cop.

You could be a paralegal. Or you could be a mediator or arbitrator, where you either help people to work out their legal disputes, or resolve them without going through a full-on trial.
