Biography and studies

• Denise Ortakales has an excellent guide to women illustrators, with Greenaway, Beatrix Potter, Wanda Gag, Millicent Sowerby, and many others. The site includes biography, bibliography and illustrations.
• This fan site from Japan has a good bibliography, galleries and links to several resource sites, and Kay Vandergrift's various studies (including history, illustration, female voices) are well worth reading. 
• Information on the UK's prestigious Kate Greenaway Medal for illustration

Texts

• The de Grummond Collection in the University of Southern Mississippi has images of Greenaway's almanacs and postcards
• The University of Pennsylvania has a selection of 5 books as part of its Celebration of Women Writers series 
• Children's Books Online has Kate Greenaway's Book of Games.

And lastly, why not do a bit of searching. The ubiquitous Google or Alta Vista build good results from your search. Try "kate greenaway" as a name, as well as descriptors such as children's literature, illustrations or illustrators or illustrat*, history in various combinations.
