What is a driving record abstract in Illinois?

I noticed that my car insurance rates went up quite a bit on my renewal form. I called my agent, and she told me to get my Illinois driving record abstract. I’ve never had to get one before, and honestly, I’m not sure what that is. What’s an Illinois driving record abstract?
