For actually getting the harddrive out of the iBook, you could look at iFixit.com... They have take apart guides for most everything Apple.

Before you do that, do you have another Mac you could connect it to? You may be able to connect to it in Target Disk Mode, and get your stuff off that way. You just need a FireWire cable, and you boot your Mac while holding (I think) command+T, and then plug it in to another Mac.
