The Molly Pruitt Library at Roosevelt High School is the only dual-use school and public library in central Texas. Made possible by an agreement between the North East Independent School District (NEISD) and the City of San Antonio, the library serves students at Roosevelt High School while also providing resources and programming to the community. The library is open year-round.
Pruitt Library patrons have access to both San Antonio Public Library (SAPL) and Roosevelt High School books. SAPL books may be returned to any public library branch in San Antonio. However, Roosevelt HS books must be returned to the Roosevelt HS Library (that is, Pruitt Library). Also, because we are located at a school, by state mandate library visitors during school hours must present their photo ID before entry.
Parking & Directions
The Molly Pruitt library is located in north east San Antonio on the campus of Roosevelt High School, but is open to the public.
From Walzem Road about four blocks south of I-35, turn onto Ray Bon Drive and take the first driveway on your right. The library’s entrance is in front of you, off the circle drive just left of the big glass windows. Patron parking is in the numbered spaces next to the sidewalk by the flagpoles.
