Debra Jensen and I have worked together on the compilation of an international bibliography of critical works on Simone Weil. Currently over 5,000 titles are listed online as Simone Weil Bibliography (https://simoneweil.library.ucalgary.ca/) . With Debra's untimely death in July 2012, the English language material will no longer be annotated, but I will continue to post updates to the bibliography and to this blog.

Europeana
Europeana.eu - 6 million digital items from the libraries, archives and museums of Europe. Not much currently on Simone, but it is a growing collection!
New Google feature
Just learned today that if you are using Google Books - Advanced search feature you can limit search to magazine articles. Did that for Simone and located a poem called "Video Games with Simone Weil" in the magazine The Third Way - http://books.google.com/books?id=f4JYvb1WoIEC&pg=PA10&dq=simone+weil&hl=en&ei=Oqm8TM6DFJKssAPO4am1Dw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDkQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=simone%20weil&f=false.
Another interesting work this pulled was a quote from her in The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists in 1959!
