I'd say work at a bookstore, you could maybe start out at a Borders or Barnes and Nobles and then someday open up your own place after you learn the ropes a little.

For sure a librarian, you could offer ideas to people searching for a certain book, plus you would know so much about helping others with other places in the library.

Librarian in a public library or school library (not a research or academic library) - but librarians also need to be interested in reference work, social activities, electronical services etc, not just books (sorry - books are of course never "just" books!)
Book-seller or antiquarian, if you really want to concentrate on books
Translator, if you love languages.
An academic career (literature history)
And of course - writer, if you really, really want to. But in that case you will probably need to have other jobs, too, in order to earn your living.

having a great store of book-learning and a love of books is a great start for so many things.

Do you enjoy helping people?

Do you like being around people, or do you like being by yourself?

Do you need a great deal of money?

Get a masters in library science and you can work in public, private or solo...

right now there is a HUGE demand for archivists.
