Requests to the University of Illinois
Under the Freedom of Information Act


The Illinois Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) provides public access to government documents and records. As a state institution, the University of Illinois is subject to the Illinois FOIA. Requests filed under the Freedom of Information Act, response letters, and responsive documents are themselves public records and subject to FOIA requests.

PILOT PROGRAM

On July 1, 2009, the Office for University Relations launched a pilot program to make available to the public all requests filed under FOIA to University Administration (UA) since April 1, 2009.

To file a request with the University of Illinois, refer to the FOIA web page that has detailed information as well as links to FOIA offices on the three campuses.

FOIA Alert

To receive an email message when a new FOIA is filed, send an email to infosource@uillinois.edu with "Subscribe to FOIA alerts" in the subject line.

Questions

Contact Thomas Hardy, Ginny Hudak-David, or Melanie Kuehn at 217-333-6400 with any questions.

 

2009 List of FOIA Requests

The table below provides a link to a copy of a request as well as subsequent communication with the requestor. The column in the table labeled Received Documents indicates whether or not the requestor has sent payment and received his/her responsive documents. A "Y" indicates that payment has been received and the documents provided. An "N" indicates that an individual made a request and has not sent in payment to receive the responsive documents. In some cases, no responsive documents exist (NA). FOIAs in process do not have an entry in the Received Documents column.

Responsive Information

To obtain a copy of the responsive materials for a FOIA listed, send a $10 check or money order to the address listed below. (Cash cannot be accepted.) Upon receipt of your check or money order and a note indicating by FOIA number the information you seek, a CD with the file(s) for one FOIA will be sent to you via overnight delivery. Allow five working days upon receipt of your payment in University Relations for your request to be processed.
