Here's more info.  I think you may have to be in an IL library district. Call Gwen personally if the link does not work.  She will send you a password and instructions.
  
TRY-IT! ILLINOIS IS UNDERWAY!
The State Library is pleased to announce that twenty-five vendors are participating in the tenth annual statewide database trial, Try-It! Illinois. Try-It! Illinois offers the staffs and library users of the more than 5,000 ILLINET member libraries the opportunity to survey and evaluate a wide variety of electronic resources. Thanks to the partnerships between the Illinois State Library and the participating electronic resource vendors, there is no charge for accessing these databases during Try-It! Illinois.

The trial began yesterday and runs until November 30. The login and password were provided in a memorandum to the regional library systems Thursday. Please contact Gwen Harrison or call Gwen at 217-785-7334 if you have questions.

Here are the vendors taking part in this year's Try-It! Illinois:
Auralog, BioOne, CABI, Capstone Publishers, H.W. Wilson, Encyclopedia Britannica, EBSCO, GALE/CENGAGE, Greenwood & ABC-CLIO (merged), MangoLanguages, Marshall Cavendish Digital, Morningstar, OCLC, Plunkett Research, ProQuest, Questia School, Rand McNally, ReferenceUSA, Rosen Publishers, Standard and Poors, Taylor and Francis, The World and I, TumbleBook Library, ValueLine, World Book.
