Pocket Books novels
The script adaptation of Star Trek: The Motion Picture was actually published more than a year before the Bantam Books series of novels concluded. The paperback novels are sequentially numbered until early 2002 (#1 thru #97, including the adaptations for Star Trek TMP, Star Trek II, and Star Trek III), except for the expanded length novels and hardcovers reprinted as paperbacks. Several of the Pocket novels have been republished as omnibus editions or with modified titles when they become part of an arc or a series, such as "The Yesterday Saga", "Worlds Apart", and "Rihannsu".
The books were republished by Titan Books in the United Kingdom, with a different numbering system, from 1987 to 1993.

† movie script novelization ‡ hardcover first printing
The TOS movie novelizations were published in the UK by various publishers, including Futura, Panther/Granada and Grafton. "The Entropy Effect" was first published in the UK by Orbit.
The "Shatnerverse"
Beginning in 1996, William Shatner, the actor who played Captain Kirk, launched a series of novels, often referred to as the "Shatnerverse" novels. They work on the premise that Captain Kirk was brought back to life after the events of the movie Star Trek Generations, and are not generally considered part of the continuity established by Pocket Books for their novels. Shatner's co-writers for these novels are Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens. With only one exception, their names appear on the title pages of each of the Shatnerverse novels. The exception was due to a production error for the first U.S. printing of the paperback edition of The Ashes of Eden and was corrected in subsequent printings. Beginning with Captain's Peril, the Reeves-Stevenses have also been credited on the novels' covers.

Novelizations
FotoNovels
FotoNovels were printed in the late 1970s before home video was widely available. They included direct adaptations of actual color television episode frames (with word balloons) in a graphic novel format. These books were the closest thing to viewing episodes on demand (strangely, in Day of the Dove, the features of Mara [Susan Howard] are obscured). Other television series such as Battlestar Galactica also used this format.
Listed below are books from Star Trek: The Original Series (Mandala Productions/Bantam Books):
- FotoNovel 1: City on the Edge of Forever
- FotoNovel 2: Where No Man Has Gone Before
