Linda Taylor's book has a lot of information for a new longarmer.

There are many different ways to load your quilt, and some of it depends on your frame. I found Sharon Schaumber's internet site very helpful, with a video on how she loads her quilts:

I think Part 3 is the one where she actually loads the quilt, but all 3 videos are useful.
You can do a search on "how to load a quilt in a longarm" and come up with lots of information.
