Using a Bookmark on Shabbat

Question

What is the ruling on using a bookmark for a book on Shabbat, if the end of the bookmark has a bit of glue, but it is not strongly adhered, does not leave a mark [the regular bookmarks on the market], and it is intended for moving from place to place in the book? Is there a concern of prohibition on Shabbat?

Answer

Shalom

It is permitted because it is not intended to be permanent.
