I love Wikisource...

... and Google Books, because I'm surprised anytime I find something new, or old, in that case.

Still researching diary- and calendar-writing, Wikisource offered a long list of calendars, Almanacs, for instance the Musenalmanach, which was published by many a publisher and under many a name.

Quite a number of them are available at GoogleBooks and what would I love more than getting instant access to a historical source, that was digitalized... Very convenient. Many 18th and 19th century calendars are available, for instance the Musical Almanach for Germany for many 18th century years. Or Friedrich Schiller's Musenalmanache for the 1790's.

And looking for more information on the topic itself, this might help:
gift books, literary annuals, keepsakes
Almanach des Muses
Kalendarium (German)
