Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA)

What is FOIA?

The Illinois Freedom of Information Act [5 ILCS 140] allows public access to government documents and/or records upon written request. Pursuant to 5 ILCS 140, Section 2(c), a public record is defined as "all records, reports, forms, writings, letters, memoranda, books, papers, maps, photographs, microfilms, cards, tapes, recordings, electronic data processing records, electronic communications, recorded information, and all other documentary materials pertaining to the transaction of public business, regardless of physical form or characteristics, having been prepared by or for, or having been or being used by, received by, in the possession of, or under the control of any public body." Records that are not subject to release via the FOIA process include confidential and trade secret information.
