The Illinois Press Association (IPA) was established in 1865 to serve Illinois publishers, growing to become the largest state newspaper association in the United States, representing over 400 daily and weekly newspapers.
Originally located in Gregory Hall at the University of Illinois, the IPA moved to Springfield in 1975 and established its permanent headquarters in April 2000, transitioning from a fraternal organization to one with a focused agenda.
