Yes… you still watch Bill Shatner on the telly if you like Boston Legal but if you are a true Star Trek fan you can read all about Captain Kirks adventures in our wide selection of Star Trek books.

Downstairs in our upper basement ‘youth stack’ there’s a dedicated set of shelving full of Trek books - we took a picture or two to show you just what we’re on about.

You may not be able to visit the stack expect during ’stack trek’ tours but you can find all the books on our catalogue and our helpful staff can run down and grab your book for you.

Live long and prosper.
