Facing the community during the Torah reading?

Hi,

Our practice is to have the baal keriah [Torah reader] face the Aron Kodesh, and one should not alter this. Even if the result is that the majority of the community is behind the baal keriah, he should not turn to face them.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:108)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
