I know what you are loooking for and in many ways I'm somewhat against a thorough guide. Eve should continue to have a learning curve. That is truly part of the wowness of it all.
However regarding an actual repository of information and any type of dedication to updating it... well there is one.
The community itself does so much of this already. And we have much more manpower resources then CCP does. I'd suggest several places... and maybe part of the CCP team could interface with these places to work out some sort of central functioning 'library' but one can only hope.
Eve I
A great resource for a variety of things. Mostly technical and 'Out of Game' content. Their forums are filled with a variety of suggestions, text files, and spreadsheets. The people are nice, helpful, and intelligent. The Staff are dedicated and very knowledgable.
Eve DB
While it is focused around being a marketplace this website is invaluable for it's item database. Unbelievably so... CCP could take a lesson from these guys.
Eve Marketplace
Want to find out where something is being sold... here is the place to find it. Wether it is on the open marketplace, in escrow, or special contact Eve Marketplace is the place to go. I've used it to keep informed, and plan some aggressive selling myself.
Eve Guardian
A shameless plug but hey what can you do. We here at EG try to provide an "in character" perspective to events. Not always easy but well worth the effort. Feel free to submit news of any kind. I won't gaurantee that it will get in print but it will get looked over.
If you feel that something is taking too long hit me up in game, convo since I seem to oops on eve-mail alot. I'll even refund your 100 isk.
This is but the tip of the iceberg. This community loves Eve. And for all the heck we give the Devs we support them in as many ways we can figure out. Think of your monthly fee as an investment.
In Eve you must be serious about your investments, in and out of game. Of course you must also be serious about fun too... but that is a personal choice imho that I wish more would opt.

awwww... How nice Shar for including eve-i in the roster 
Well the list I gave is not all inclusive... There is Eve-Explore and Eve Gate and many others... The bunch I put out though covers the real basics. Technical/Gameplay, Market, Equipment Info, and Politics/Bullcaacaa. (How do you spell that?)
The Eve 4 basic food groups. The savviest players take healthy portions of them all. Not a bad route to suggest to the many new players out there.

Well for any guide I plan to write I'm going to hit the basics. No formulas and any of that crap. Want to know some of that... research or learn. Want to know how to do some basics, in an attempt to avoid looking like a newbie, well that's what I'll give you.
Besides trying to pin Eve down to exacts would only kill the utility of the guide. It's for beginners and heck things change to darn quick sometimes.
What you are going to get amounts to a free ride. And it will be worth just a cut or two above that.
And of course I have to figure out how to present it all from the in character perspective. It's the EG mandate after all. =)
