Merkitsejä
Merkitsejä, also known as bookmarks, are small, portable devices used to mark a specific page or location in a book, document, or other printed material. They are typically made of plastic, metal, or wood and feature a small tab or clip that can be inserted into the margin of a page. Merkitsejä serve as a visual reminder of where the reader last left off, allowing them to resume reading without having to search for the exact page. They are commonly used in libraries, schools, and personal collections to facilitate easy navigation through books and documents. Merkitsejä can be found in various designs, including traditional wooden bookmarks, modern plastic bookmarks with decorative elements, and even custom-made bookmarks with personal messages or illustrations. The use of merkitsijä has been a longstanding practice in reading and has evolved alongside the development of printing technology.
