page marker

Reading progress saver

A page marker is something used to hold one's place in a book—a bookmark, ribbon, or slip of paper inserted between pages.

The term also applies to tabs or flags that stick out from pages for quick reference: I used page markers to flag the important sections.

In digital contexts, page markers serve similar functions in documents or e-readers.
