CHOCTAW — Butch Roberts is a self-described Trekkie. He collects memorabilia from the popular "Star Trek” television shows and movie series as a hobby.

And Roberts will put that collection on display today through Jan. 30 at Choctaw Library, 2525 Muzzy St.

"I’ve always been into the whole ‘Star Trek’ phenomenon,” Roberts said. "This is something I genuinely enjoy doing.”

The exhibit features "Star Trek” main characters, including Spock, James T. Kirk and Data. "Star Trek” books also will be available for checkout.

Library hours are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fridays and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays.
