The Sierra Public Library system is the second-largest municipal library system in the country, operating 72 public libraries in the city of Sierra. It has a collection of approximately 53 million books and other materials. Though it is a separate entity, because Sierra County (and consequently, the city of Sierra) is part of the Palm Coast Consortium of Metropolitan County Governments (PCCMCG), members of the Sierra Public Library and Sierra County Library can utilize a limited degree of services within the other 13 member library systems. | The Sierra Public Library system is the second-largest municipal library system in the country, operating 72 public libraries in the city of Sierra.
