On July 1, 2015, H-Net Council voted to decommission H-Illinois and several other networks dedicated to the study of the history and culture of Midwestern US states. Council also approved a plan to create a new network, H-Midwest, dedicated to Midwestern Studies. Folks interested in Illinois History and Culture are encouraged to subscribe to H-Midwest.

Questions can be sent to Patrick Cox, H-Net Vice-President for Networks, at vp-net@mail.h-net.msu.edu.
