ABSTRACT:
A bookmark device includes an elastically stretchable loop section that has a first longitudinally resilient cord wrappably attachable to a book being engaged with the book such that the first cord extends across an exterior of the book in between front and back covers of the book at a selected location. An elastically stretchable tail section includes a second longitudinally resilient cord joined to and extending from the loop section. The tail section projects from a first end of the book to which the loop section is attached and is insertible between a selected pair of adjoining pages of the book to mark a corresponding position therein. Each of the first and second cords constitutes a string. The tail has a distal end for extending no farther than an opposite end of the book when the tail section is in an unstretched condition. A tab carried proximate the distal end of the tail section is pulled to stretch the tail section beyond the opposite second end of the book and is released to engage that end and hold the tail section in place in the marked position of the book.
