The San Antonio Genealogical and Historical Society and library is situated in an historic Spanish colonial revival house in north central San Antonio. The library houses a rich international collection of books, periodicals, maps and other materials. The library is open to the public four days a week — including weekends — with free parking and lovely facilities and grounds. Society librarians are on duty to assist whether you are a beginning genealogist or more experienced researcher. We invite you to come in and explore our extensive collections onsite or view the catalog.
We welcome non-member library patrons, but request that non-members help to support our library with a minimum donation of $5 per person, per visit.
