PAC Guidance Concerning Electronic Records and Audit Logs

Illinois Public Access Counselor (PAC)

Submitted

Request

I am requesting copies of the following records maintained by the Public Access Counselor:

Any guidance, training materials, manuals, reference materials, or generally applicable memoranda concerning FOIA requests for electronic audit logs, access logs, query logs, search histories, or other system-generated logs.
Any such materials addressing whether querying, filtering, exporting, or generating a report from an existing electronic database constitutes creating a new record under FOIA.
Any such materials addressing electronic public records maintained by a private technology vendor or contractor on behalf of a public body.
This request is limited to generally applicable guidance and training/reference materials and is not intended to duplicate my separate request for PAC reviews involving Flock Safety or ALPR records.

Electronic copies are preferred.

If clarification would assist your search, please contact me and I will be happy to work with your office to appropriately narrow or clarify the request.
