I've just stumbled up Heather M. Crickenberger's The Arcades Project Project, which explores Walter Benjamin's The Arcades Project, Crickenberger's project exists as a living, online scholarly hypertext that aims at both enacting and sharing scholarly research on Benjamin's work.
I am looking for material for my article for the One City: three views exhibition by altofotnet.org. Can I do all the research online? Or do I have to turn to the Library for help?

Atget and his photographs is a key figure in exploring modernity. If there is an Atget Rephotographic Project online (there is another here on Flickr), then there should be enough academic articles that link Benjamin to contemporary concerns for me to write the article.
