Anybody familiar with regs for non-profit boards, in terms of public info?

What kind of info are org.s required to have public about their Boards of officers/directors? I am involved with a non-profit that provides very little access to the Board (and it is a membership owned organization!) Public has access in the following ways: call to audience at meeting (and accosting members after meetings), the corporate address and phone number (at which none of the board ever appear), and a webform (that does not send any kind of automatic response so that the sender can have a clue it went through) that apparently also Cc's to staff.

The practical problem is that if the public has an issue with said staff, there is no way to communicate with the Board without giving staff a heads-up and opportunity to generate excuses and spin about whatever the issue is.

I know this smacks of the "innocent" not being able to face their "accuser" but I also see it as you don't have to Cc the crook you might want to report to the police either.
