Only raid I've done before was DS when 85 was the cap

Pally tank

Most of the fights are tank and spank on LFR difficulty, I'd assume a few of the fights have debuff switching for the tanks so just look out for that.
Worst case scenario you can check the Shift + J menu under raids and see if there is anything noted for tanks.

If you want to be absolutely fail proof you could also check this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cX3-N9o0iQ imo he summarizes everything pretty well and detailed, for LFR.
And if you need any tips for paladin tanking in general (rotation, builds, glyphs etc), you could also always check: http://www.icy-veins.com/wow/protection-paladin-pve-tank-guide ;)

personally, i would queue as dps or heals a time or two to experience the encounters before i ever tried tanking them. otherwise, i guess use the adventure guide, ask the other tank for encounter tips, or watch youtubes.

If you're in a PvE guild ask one of the experienced tanks to carry you and explaining tacs, or simply look up some boss comments on wowhead to see which are tank&spank and not
