CompTIA's A+ courses include some help desk etiquette. Try Scott Mueller's Upgrading and Repairing PC's or Sybex's A+ Complete Study Guide.

There are a number of Help Desk organizations/associations and they usually offer training opportunities, local chapter meetings, book reviews, job postings, newsletters, etc.
