The Brevard County Libraries organization is made up of seventeen public libraries. Located on Florida's Space Coast, Brevard County is unique geographically, 72 miles long and 25 miles wide at the broadest point. Brevard's geography coupled with limits of public transportation, necessitates that services be provided in as many locations as possible to serve the needs of the county residents.

Brevard is home to the Kennedy Space Center and major space-related industries and employs a highly technical labor force. Brevard County exceeds Florida's averages in the percent of residents with both high school and college educations for adults over 25 years. There are eight colleges and universities as well as one vocational technical college in Brevard.

In addition to the Brevard County Libraries, there are many academic and special libraries which are part of the Central Florida Library Cooperative and offer expanded services to the Brevard Community.
