The Pennsylvania Office of Open Records provides guidance on requesting records from the OOR itself, which maintains only records related to its own operations including open records appeal files. The OOR's Open Records Officer is Janelle Sostar, reachable at RTK-OOR@pa.gov, 717-346-9903, or by mail at 555 Walnut Street, Suite 605, Harrisburg, PA 17101. The OOR generally issues responses to record requests within five business days of receipt, though a thirty calendar day extension may be invoked under the Right-to-Know Law if additional time is needed. The OOR will not process appeals or respond to requests where the requester's identity is anonymous or misrepresented. The document directs users to agency databases and resource charts for records requests to other government entities and commonly requested record types such as vital records and police reports.
