The Illinois Supreme Court Library provides several topical research guides to aid users with their research. These guides are not exhaustive lists of all the resources available, rather they are a starting point. Please note that the Illinois Supreme Court Library does not hold all of the items listed in these guides. Instead, they list resources to look for in law libraries across the state.
Legislative history refers to the documents that are created during the process of a bill becoming a law. In Illinois, these documents are produced by the Illinois General Assembly. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for locating these documents.
