One of the most significant technological innovations in the last several years has been the availability on the web of many standard reference works that I had to consult in the library when I was a grad student. I'd like to begin a list of useful links for those who work in early modern European history. Some of my favorites are:
Deutsches Wörterbuch von Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm http://germazope.uni-trier.de/Projects/WBB/woerterbuecher/dwb/suchmaschine
Elektronische Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie
http://mdz1.bib-bvb.de/~ndb/adb_index.html
Grotefends Zeitrechnung des Deutschen Mittelalters und der Neuzeit
http://www.manuscripta-mediaevalia.de/gaeste/grotefend/grotefend.htm
Orbis Latinus Online
http://www.columbia.edu/acis/ets/Graesse/contents.html
Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog
http://www.ubka.uni-karlsruhe.de/kvk.html
What are your favorite reference links? Let us know, and we'll post them on this site!

One should definitely not underestimate the power of Google Books, books.google.com. I found out recently that the entire collection of Migne's PG (Greek) and PL (Latin) are there. I found, for example, Didymus the Blind.
Amy,
Here is a website that I have found invaluable for primary texts. It is the digitized library of Albert Hardenberg - Worth bookmarking especially for Bucer fans --- http://hardenberg.jalb.de/
