as far as I'm concerned, you can ignore The Next Generation, but the Voyager and Deep Space Nine spinoffs are good, if you are getting the habit.
Then there is the fan fiction...literally hundreds of books in print.
That will give you a basic working knowledge of the universe. Oh, I forgot the "technical journals"! (inside joke)
No matter what your interest (except for economics--there are some analyses of how economics works in the 23rd century, but they are inferred from educated guesses), there is an aspect of Star Trekdom that addresses it.
Or, you could look at Memory Alpha--the Star Trek Wikipedia
