More than 500 artists and book lovers of all ages answered the call to submit an original hand-drawn design for Burlington Public Library’s annual Burlington Bookmarks Contest in February. This year’s theme invited participants to create a design inspired by a book they love.
Vote for Your Favourites





With so many creative submissions, selecting just five finalists in each of the five age categories was no easy task. Now it’s your turn, Burlington!
From March 4 to 11, community members can cast a ballot for their favourite designs. One winner will be selected in each age category. To keep things fair, voting is limited to one ballot per device.
The five winning bookmarks will be professionally printed and available at all BPL branches for customers to enjoy in their next great read.
If you want to make sure you get your hands on one of this year’s winning bookmarks, keep a close eye out! The free bookmarks will be available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.
Click on the bookmarks you want to vote for, one per age group. To keep things fair, voting is limited to one ballot per device.
