Mar 3, 2011 at 9:56 comment added François Brunault About this article of Elbaz-Vincent, Gangl and Soulé, there seems to be a more recent preprint : ihes.fr/~soule/egs.pdf
Mar 3, 2011 at 9:50 comment added François Brunault @Hugo : See also P. Elbaz-Vincent, H. Gangl et C. Soulé, "Quelques calculs de la cohomologie de GL_N(Z) et de la K-theorie de Z" (in French), math.uiuc.edu/K-theory/0581
Mar 3, 2011 at 1:25 comment added Ralph @Jim: Soule's paper "The cohomology of $SL_3(\mathbf{Z})$" also contains the integral cohomology of $GL_3(\mathbf{Z}) = SL_3(\mathbf{Z}) \times \mathbf{Z}/2\mathbf{Z}$.
Mar 3, 2011 at 0:42 comment added Jim Conant Soule has made some integral calculations for $SL_n(\mathbb Z)$ for $n=3,4$, which is not too far away from $GL_n(\mathbb Z)$.
Mar 3, 2011 at 0:34 comment added Ralph To my knowledge not much is known for general n. There are some results by Ash (see his homepage: www2.bc.edu/~ashav). You also may have a look at the book "Knudson: Homology of Linear Groups". The stable rank ($n = \infty$) has been computed by Borel in the paper "Stable real cohomology of arithmetic groups".
Mar 3, 2011 at 0:00 comment added Theo Buehler A better candidate for $E$ would certainly be the symmetric space associated to $\operatorname{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{R})$, i.e., the symmetric positive definite matrices. Serre has made extensive calculations of the cohomology of discrete subgroups of Lie groups (e.g. here springerlink.com/content/0171m21753248642), but I think mostly with real coefficients.
