bookmark: a collection of items found in returned library books, 2017
bookmark is a collection of items found in returned library books. The collection was started by my former coworker at a library in central Massachusetts. The items were saved through the course of the coworkers' 20+ years working within the library. Since then, I have added to the collection throughout my 10 year library career, spanning 7 institutions across New England.
In 2021, a Tik Tok of bookmark exhibited at the Greenville Public Library in Greenville, Rhode Island
went viral online and garnered immense community support and press, including a writeup in ARTnews.
