(written from a Production point of view)
The Star Trek Engagement Calendar is a Star Trek desk calendar that began regular production in 2012 for the year 2013. It is a sixteen-month engagement-style calendar that features images, quotations, and reflections from all of the Star Trek captains.
The 2013 calendar and its follow-ups are published by Universe Publishing.
While Universe Publishing is the first company known to release engagement desk calendars on a regular basis, it was not the first to actually release a Star Trek-themed engagement desk calendar. That distinction fell to Wallaby Books, an imprint of Pocket Books, who released the weekly Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Official USS Enterprise Officer's Date Book (1980) desk engagement calendar in 1979 as a tie-in for Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Due to the disappointing performance of the film's merchandise sales, that desk calendar remained an one-off release for decades afterwards.
