Welcome to the new IHLS website!

IHLS is launching a new website in the fall of 2022, with more straightforward site navigation, system-members-only articles and offers, and some new features. Communications Administrator Carol Hogan-Downey shares some of these features with us during the Nov. 17 lunchtime mini-sessions, part of IHLS Member Day 2022.

Video corrections and clarifications:
The members-only features mentioned are accessible to all library-system members using their L2 login, not just IHLS members.

Frequently Asked Questions

this section will be updated periodically

I hit a login wall! What do I do? About Members-Only content

Hit a login page? Some of our pages are now available to only Illinois library-system member libraries. But don't worry. If you already have an L2 account, then you already have a login! When you reach a page that says that you must be logged in to view the contents, click to sign in. You'll want to then select the purple "Log In with L2" button. The first time this happens, you'll need to grant the L2 website your authorization 

I found a problem with the website. Who do I tell?
