Adventure is the theme for this year’s Summer Reading Program. This week we’re featuring books about the Star Trek franchise. Go explore strange new worlds and boldly go where no one has yet to go—through the magic of reading Because, remember: adventure begins at your library!
This is an ever-evolving list. The current iteration was compiled using the source below on April 12, 2024. As the NLS collection grows daily, this is not a complete list of our holdings. This list is organized with the TV shows first, then the movies. Then we’ve also included the books we have about Star Trek Magazine, as well as nonfiction titles about the show and memoirs from the actors.
