For those without access to a university's classical library, the Loeb Classical Library from Harvard University Press is the best way to own the classics to translate and read for yourself. The Loeb format is excellent for beginning translators, with the ancient Latin or Greek on the left page, and a scholar's English translation on the right. The Loeb's Home page provides excellent guides that break down their library by author, subject, and volume number.

The Ancient World Web is an large index of internet listings containing Web sites, institutions, and organizations, about the ancient world. The site contains a Meta Index as well as indexes based on geographical region and topics. It also contains links to the popular search engines. It is a good first place to look if you know your subject is during the ancient times (before 1000 C.E.). However the site is updated irregularly, so brand new topics and sites may not be available there.
