Suggestions for Methods to Mark Pages?

That link just came back to this page, stainlessb

They have tabs like that in office supply stores. What I usually use is a post it note. Easy to apply, easy to remove!

I use them and put a little note on them as well, to say why I did it. Otherwise I will totally forget what the little note is supposed to note!

On another note, I would not get any brand other than 3M. You will run the risk of staining your pages in the long run if you use knock-offs. I've dealt with lots of office supplies over the decades -- I've seen the results of knock-offs when we pulled out archived pages from decades past and you can see either stain marks or the notes have fallen off. The very earliest 3M post-it notes will also stain, but everything after the late 1980's is pretty stable after they tweaked the formulation.

I've never worked for 3M, but I used 3M quite a bit before the turn of the century when I was still in research. They have a catalog of thousands of different adhesives for all sorts of different materials/conditions/strengths... It was no contest. You wanted something that would work according to specs and wouldn't mess up your research results, you went to 3M.

If you wonder why some philatelic supplies manufacturer doesn't go to 3M and ask for an archival removable adhesive to make that perfect peelable hinge -- the good stuff from 3M isn't cheap and none of us would be able to afford a pack of 1000 hinges!!! It would make the current price of Dennison's look like a steal.

Kim you were up at 3 a.m. ?? I thought I was strange.

3M (Scotch brand) also sells those.  Before the days of PowerPoint presentations, we used overheads and large poster stands to display our research results.  Now called restickable/removable gluestick, it used to be called Post-It sticks.  And then way way back, they used to be called something like repositionable adhesive sticks.  We used those to temporarily position our text, graphs, pictures... on the boards, until we got something to our liking.  Sometimes we would have to add last minute research results, and if the board is permanently glued down...    Those repositionable adhesives, I believe, were part of the archival photo-adhesives product line.  The current Scotch restickable gluesticks are not the same adhesive, and is probably why they changed the name(?).  As far as I know, they are also not the same adhesive on the Scotch 811 removable type (another great, but expensive product).

The restickable gluesticks are great because you can make your own custom-size/print/paper labels.  The drawbacks -- hard to get nice even spread unless you put the label face down on a larger piece of scratch paper to catch all the edges, and also sometimes it will leave a little residue when you peel it off.  If you don't want any residue, you will need to use the flags or post-it notes.  Also, believe it or not, there are different grades of stickiness on the flags & post-it notes!  If you want it much stickier, they are available commercially -- just do a google search to find a vendor.
