The Illinois State Archives is required by law to receive, from all out-of-state or non-Illinois residents, a $10 fee, prepaid and nonrefundable, along with all research requests before those requests may be honored. That fee will entitle the requester to up to 2 unofficial, non-certified copies of the records requested if those records exist. Research services are provided at no charge to Illinois residents. See the Illinois State Archives Fee Schedule for a complete list of fees and copy charges. See the IRAD Research Policy for charges that are applicable to our regional depositories.
