bookmark or fold ?

It matters.. I only use bookmarks for novels and the like.. For my study books, I prefer folding the corners of the pages as there no single page which I need to highlight upon...

Definitely a bookmark. You can't get rid of a crease in the page from a fold. I like to try and keep my books in top condition, and even if I don't own the book, I still treat it with respect!

i prefer to use a bookmark. i dont like the pages of my book having fold marks, sometimes it ruins the letters. and besides, i have a lot of cute bookmarks. ^__^

I am for bookmark too, but I can't help but fold a certain part of the page when I ran out of bookmark, I mean when my other bookmarks is still bookmarking another unfinished reading..LOL I admit,I am having hard time finishing all my current readings now..

I tend to fold the tip of the corner on the page I stop on. I don't know when I started this habit, but even if I have a bookmark I tend to fold the corner of the page.

I prefer to use bookmarks because I don't want to ruin by folding it. Especially if I just borrowed it to a friend, I won't dare to fold even a single page. I also find bookmarks quite enticing since it comes with different designs.

THERE are many ways by which i mark the point where i've taken a break, 1.use a pencil to mark the page and paragraph where i stopped. 2. use a paper to insert in that page. 3.fold it.

i will use a bookmark, i had never fold the page of a book. i often keep the book clean and tidy. frankly, i like books, and i respect them. if i find my favorite books are dirty or be fold, i don't buy them although they are too cheap. so i had never lent books to my friends or classmates, although they will be angry, but i don't believe that they will keep my books clean. i had never made notes on my studying books.

I use a bookmate, which holds the book open at the page I'm on. If I decide to close the book, the bookmate has a bookmark on it I can use. But 9 times out of 10 I just leave it open, so I can just pick it up and read. It's a nice option to have when you don't have a lot of time to read. When I read books that don't fit in the bookmate (the one I have only fits mass market paperbacks), I make a mental note of the page before I close the book. My son has a habit of flushing bookmarks down the toilet, and I don't really like folding down the corner of the page.

hey singlepixel!Upon reaching a certain chapter (I always stop at a new chapter hehe),I'll usually bookmark the pages. I seldom fold the pages,just incase I need to sell it off to get some cash.I read mostly,self help books,non fiction,autobiographies,schoolbooks(I'm studying for a Master's Degree in Biotechnology) & yes,sometimes library books too!Thanks singlepixel!

I always bookmark them. I used to fold them, but I stopped doing that years ago. I don't usually use proper bookmarks because I would just lose them anyway. I use any piece of paper I have as bookmarks.

i like the person who loves the book because i also am the one who loves the book.

I always use book marks in books but I sometimes fold in magazines. It just never felt right to fold the pages of a book, even if it is a textbook or library book.

I definitely use bookmarks. I have used pretty much anything, the torn corner of a sheet of typing paper, my business card, or a "real" bookmark. I don't like bent pages!

I have several book marks of different shapes and colors.So do my daughter.It is become a habit of folding the page corner because those beautiful book marks won't be there when they are most needed.

I've learned to use those removable sticky colored bookmarkers, cuz I keep jumping from chapter to chapter in my reference books- these make it easier! :) Library Thing for you- Thanks for reading books these days!:) http://www.librarything.com Have a great day! :)

For books I use a bookmark. I don't like to damage my books by dogearing the pages. But I sometimes dogear pages on magazines.

I tend to be a folder. I try to use a book mark though when it is a book I've borrowed. Like from a friend or the library.I just fold a small corner and i always unfold it when I'm done.

Bookmark! To fold a page in a book is to damage it. I always use a bookmark and I make sure that the select few that borrows my books, use a bookmark also. Now magazines, on the other hand, I don't fold pages in there either, but I don't mind if the pages get tattered looking since I usually give them away when I'm done with them.

I prefer a bookmark; if I don't have one I'll usually find a piece of paper to use as one. I rarely dogear pages. And I second the vote for LibraryThing!
