I would recommend talking to any professor that you enjoyed their class, ask them if they are doing any research projects and if so, ask if they are looking for a research assistant (or similar). You could also talk with your academic advisor - they will be able to point you to resources that you may have missed (for example, undergrad research database or they know of some research positions available).

I always found that networking, warm introductions or word of mouth is the best when trying for positions like this.
