This is the handout for “50 Websites in 60 Minutes: Partnering with the Internet” presented at the Association of Independent Information Professionals (AIIP - http://www.aiip.org/) conference in New Orleans on 5/20/17 by Mark Goldstein, International Research Center and Marydee Ojala, Ojala Associates & Editor-in-Chief, Online Searcher Magazine. It also includes last year’s handout following this year’s for an evolving view of what’s new and important for researchers on the web. The companion slide deck is available at http://bit.ly/2pY2MH9. Online services and web sites are essential to running a business, doing research, and discovering relevant information. In their rapid-fire style, Mark and Marydee covered some of the newest resource sites for information access, as well as ones they find most useful and important for running their businesses, and some fun ones they appreciate (as will you).
