About VIN
Since 1991, VIN has been and always will be — for veterinarians, by veterinarians.
“VIN is more than a website, it is a community of colleagues.”
Much more than the sum of its features, VIN provides something no other organization or service has been able to. Simply stated, VIN:
- Brings together veterinarians “world-wide” as colleagues
- Provides instant access to vast amounts of up-to-date veterinary information
- Gives instant access to “breaking news” affecting veterinarians, their patients and their practice
- Connects veterinarians to colleagues with specialized knowledge and skills
- Empowers our profession through the sharing of knowledge and ideas
