It's nearly time for World Bookmark Day (WOBODA) again, organised by the International Friends of Bookmarks (IFOB). 25 February 2022 marks the sixth WOBODA. On this day "We celebrate the readers' little helper and the ever faithful companion of books for 2000 years."
There are various activities for IFOB members such as a bookmark raffle and bookmark designing. We members are also encouraged to create local events that share and promote bookmarks.
Due to the Covid pandemic, I and many others, are unfortunately unable to organise these local events right now. Instead, this year, I have decided to celebrate WOBODA here on Mark My Place! by posting this blog article about my cyber bookmark collection on Pinterest.

MARK MY PLACE ON PINTEREST
Several years go, I created a board on Pinterest called 'Mark My Place'. To this board I pin bookmarks according to categories (sections) I set up. This board currently has 18,595 pins and thousands of followers!
👉 MARK MY PLACE!
I subsequently created some other bookmark boards, categorised thematically:
👉 BOOKMARKS: ANIMALS which has 3,377 pins
👉 BOOKMARKS: WOMEN which has 698 pins
👉 BOOKMARKS: FOOD & DRINK which has 342 pins
These pins are ones I find already on Pinterest, ones I add from my personal bookmark collection, and ones I find in various places on the Internet, including on eBay.
Enjoy looking at all these different kinds of bookmarks! There are SO many kinds of bookmarks!
Happy World Bookmark Day!
PS: Here is one of my favourite bookmarks that I pinned on Pinterest. I do not actually have this bookmark in my physical collection, but I love having it in my cyber collection.
