The renovation project at Memorial Branch Library is delayed and will be completed later than originally projected. This delay is associated with COVID-related supply chain issues and construction delays.
This project began in March 2021 as part of the City of San Antonio’s 2017-2022 Bond Program. We are working diligently with our project partners to complete this construction project and reopen the branch to the community as soon as possible. The bookdrop at Memorial Branch Library will remain open. We look forward to welcoming you back into the beautifully renovated and expanded Memorial Branch Library.
Interim services will continue to be available at the Marianist Archives at St. Mary's University, located across the street at 3141 Culebra Rd., 78228, throughout construction. We also invite you to access full library service at the locations listed below while construction continues.
