Just to set the record straight... The Ephrata Public Library does not refuse requests for copies of 990 returns and is in full compliance with federal and state laws for document disclosure. Any specific inquiries should be placed with the director of the library.

You hit the nail on the head. Rather then scale down and attempt to increase services with more effecient operations, they did the opposite. It seems the strategy was to compare themselves to other states and cry and moan they are underfunded. When the funding increased, they wasted the money on larger facilities and overhead that requires more funding to keep it all going.

I know for a fact that the request for disclosure have been refused on numerous occasions.

Disclosure has been refused because WASTE runs rampant in the Lancaster Library system, and it starts right at the top. Start in Greenfield and work your way down.
