First thing to do is to download Golly, which you can find in the Game of Life Links at the top of this forum. It will come with a lot of built-in patterns that will show off what the community has figured out how to do. It's not a comprehensive library, but it sure is handy.

I'd suggest starting at the top of the Conway's Life links page on the LifeWiki, and working your way down the list. I've added a few recent links. Also explore the LifeWiki itself, of course -- see what catches your interest the most. After forty-five years of exploration, there's a lot to look at.
