A bit of googling came up with lots of useful stuff, including
 
 * Wikipedia, unsurprisingly: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_group
 * Table six on http://cci.lbl.gov/sginfo/hall_symbols.html
 
This file:
  http://cars9.uchicago.edu/svn/horae/trunk/lib/Xray/space_groups.db.PL
is where every space group symbol recognized by my software is written down.

If your library has a copy of the first volume of the International Tables of 
Crystallography, that's the ultimate authority.
