Illinois Compiled Statutes - Full Text
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.
(5 ILCS 140/5) (from Ch. 116, par. 205)
Sec. 5.
As to public records prepared or received after the effective
date of this Act, each public body shall maintain and make available for inspection
and copying a reasonably current list of all types or categories of records
under its control. The list shall be reasonably detailed in order to aid
persons in obtaining access to public records pursuant to this Act. Each
public body shall furnish upon request a description of the manner in which
public records stored by means of electronic data processing may be obtained in a form
comprehensible to persons lacking knowledge of computer
language or printout format.
