So, imagine there's no Internet. There are computers, but only big business and universities have them. And you have to share one computer with many users. By appointment.
How you find information: Telephone directory and telephone, libraries and bookstores, magazines, correspondence and verbal communication with other people.
All information searches are done with eyes and hands, paging through books and magazines, table contents, indexes, and flipping through index cards.
Now be curious about obscure topics. Also be relatively poor.
That was me at age 15.
