The most efficient guide to world latitudes and longitudes is any Atlas. Every geography student should have an Atlas.

Atlases are online ... several. If you want a quick reference to geographic positions try the annual CIA Factbook at http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/ ... you can download a copy to your desktop for quick reference.
