Studbook scores
While we would also like to recognize individual studbook keepers for their efforts in improving the information in their studbooks, we have not yet found a reliable way to quantify these efforts. There are many studbook keepers who have made a tremendous effort to improve the accuracy of the information within their studbooks and have therefore helped institutions to clean up the ISIS databases – thank you for your efforts!

Congratulations to these members! We all really appreciate your hard work!

Because member records are inter-dependent, keeping your data up-to-date and complete helps all members maintain excellent data quality. This will be especially important as we prepare to migrate the data in our current system to ZIMS.
