There is a range of books you can use. Introduction to Algorithms is a pretty standard text but it is very intense. I wouldn't necessarily recommend that book for self study until you've read a couple of others first.

Data Structures and Algorithms is a gigantic subject so there is just no good straightforward answer to this question. If you know C++ or Java then you've got lots of good and accessible books to choose from.

There is this book for data structures and algorithms for Javascript which is interesting.
