OAIster Project at University of Michigan Digital Library Production Service
http://oaister.umdl.umich.edu/o/oaister/
OAIster is a project of the University of Michigan Digital Library Production Service. Our goal is to create a collection of freely availible, previously difficult-to-access, academically-oriented digital resources that are easily searchable by anyone. Listings indexed in OAIster contain links to the actual digital resource, not just the abstracts or metadata. No subject area has been excluded, and new resources are regularly added.

http://content.lib.washington.edu/
"Photographs, documents and audio/video resources for students, teachers, classrooms and the community"
Virtual Reference Library
http://www.virtualreferencelibrary.ca/
Search and browse "librarian-selected websites" and "self-guided research support" with a "special focus on Canadian and Ontario information." In French and English.
