Use a scoring tool to makes holes in border then spray water and soak paper. Wait 10 to 15 minutes and scrape paper off with putty knife. Be sure to cover floors!
White vinegar in a spray bottle. Spray the paper liberally and let sit for 15 minutes. The paper should peel off easily. You might need some light scraping while peeling.
Score and steam!

Any tool rental will have steamers.
Fabric softener mixed with water also works along the same lines as the vinegar technique (and smells nice, too)
Try using a blow dryer or heat gun on low. Get a plastic putty knife and gently scrape as the glue underneath softens.
Fabric Softener and warm water have worked for me.
