2023 Illinois Compiled Statutes › Chapter 75 - LIBRARIES › 75 ILCS 70/ - Library Records Confidentiality Act.

(75 ILCS 70/1) (from Ch. 81, par. 1201)
Sec. 1. (a) The registration and circulation records of a library
are confidential information. No person
shall publish or make any information contained in such records available to the public unless:
(1) required to do so under a court order; or
(2) the information is requested by a sworn law     enforcement officer who represents that it is impractical to secure a court order as a result of an emergency where the law enforcement officer has probable cause to believe that there is an imminent danger of physical harm.  The information requested must be limited to identifying a suspect, witness, or victim of a crime.  The information requested without a court order may not include the disclosure of registration or circulation records that would indicate materials borrowed, resources reviewed, or services used at the library.  If requested to do so by the library, the requesting law enforcement officer must sign a form acknowledging the receipt of the information. A library providing the information may seek subsequent judicial review to assess compliance with this Section.
This subsection shall not alter any right to challenge the use or dissemination of patron information that is otherwise permitted by law.
(b) This Section does not prevent a library from publishing or making
available to the public reasonable statistical reports regarding library
registration and book circulation where those reports are presented so that
no individual is identified therein.
(b-5) Nothing in this Section shall be construed as a privacy violation or a breach of confidentiality if a library provides information to a law enforcement officer under item (2) of subsection (a).
(c) For the purpose of this Section, (i) "library" means any public library
or library of an educational, historical or eleemosynary institution, organization
or society;  (ii) "registration records" includes any information a library
requires a person to provide in order for that person to become eligible
to borrow books and other materials and (iii) "circulation records" includes
all information identifying the individual borrowing particular
books or materials.

Sec. 10. Reimbursable meal or snack.
(a) Every school in this State shall provide a federally reimbursable meal or snack to a student of that school who requests the meal or snack, regardless of whether the student has the ability to pay for the meal or snack or owes money for earlier meals or snacks. The school may not provide a student requesting a meal or snack under this subsection (a) an alternate meal or snack that is different from the other meals or snacks provided to students in that school and may not prohibit or prevent a student from accessing the school's meal or snack services.
(b) If a student owes money for meals or snacks that is in excess of the equivalent of the amount charged a student for 5 lunches, or a lower amount as determined by the student's  school district or private school, a school may reach out to the parent or guardian of the student to attempt collection of the owed money and to request that the parent or guardian apply for meal benefits in a federal or State child nutrition program. If the amount owed by a student for meals or snacks is owed and payable to a school district in an amount that is no less than $500 and the school district has made reasonable efforts to collect the debt from the student's parent or guardian for at least one year, the school district may seek an offset under the State Comptroller Act.
