The origin and function of bookmarks;

Bookmarks originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and were called "toothpicks" at that time. Made of bamboo, whenever you see a very important place in the scroll, you will insert a "toothpick" at one end of the book for easy reading. When the scroll book is changed into a folded one, bookmarks are even more useful. After the Song Dynasty, more and more attention was paid to bookmarks, and sometimes sentences such as mottos were handwritten on bookmarks. Today's bookmarks are printed with poetry aphorisms, celebrity aphorisms and decorative pictures, which is why.

Now, we not only use bookmarks to mark the progress of reading, but also use them to record our reading experience and write comments. Bookmarks are matched with books, echoing the principles of China's traditional aesthetics, just like wearing a suit and tie, a book with bookmarks is a complete book.
