If you have been arrested and convicted of a criminal offense, then you have a criminal record. If you have been arrested but never charged or gone to court, then you have an arrest record (not a criminal record).
In order to check if you have a criminal record, you generally have to pay a fee and submit fingerprints and personally identifiable information to the State Records Department where you think you might have a record. Here is the information for how to check in Illinois.
"FINGERPRINT CONVICTION INFORMATION REQUEST FORM
Form ISP6-404B is to be used to initiate a fingerprint-based record search of the Illinois State Police's criminal history record information files. Any criminal history record information provided as a result of a fingerprint based criminal history record information search confirms positive identification of the subject to whom the fingerprints belong contained on the fingerprint request form. The fee to process a FINGERPRINT request is $20.00 ($50.00 if the check is not drawn on a United States bank.)"

Hope this helps.

You can be arrested and detained without being charged. Even if you are charged, the charges may later be dropped. You may also go to trial and be found not guilty. Finally, even if you do have a criminal record, many states give automatic pardons after a certain amount of time for certain kinds of offenses.
Simply being arrested or charged does not mean you have a criminal record. It is better if you find out now, rather than when you try and do something important, like cross the border or apply for a job that requires security clearance.
The only way you can find out for sure is to fill out a criminal record check (aka security clearance) at your local police station. You will need to have government ID (at least 2 pieces one which must have a current photo) and you may be fingerprinted. They will also not release the information to you except in person, again with photo ID.
if you do have a record, you can apply for a pardon. You need to wait a certain amount of time (2 years or 5 years for a felony). There are many agencies that will help you with this for a small fee. It could take up to a couple years, so get started early!
Good luck!
