2025 Bookmark Contest Runs through Saturday, Oct. 4

The Forsyth County Public Library 2025 Bookmark Contest is open to students from preschool through grade 12. The Library receives thousands of entries every year, and we're looking forward to this year's designs. The bookmark subject matter can be:

• An original slogan and drawing about books and reading
• A favorite book or subject
• Why you love the library
• An image from your imagination

Artists may enter as many designs as they would like. Complete rules and entry forms are available at any Forsyth County Public Library branch. Entry forms are also available online in English or Spanish . Please print entry forms on white paper.

Completed entry forms are due by Saturday, Oct. 4 and can be turned in at any Forsyth County Public Library branch, school media centers or teacher.

Several winners will be selected from each age group or grade. Winning bookmarks will be printed and distributed at all Forsyth County Public Library branches. Winners will be invited to an awards ceremony along with their parents, media specialists, and teachers on Wednesday, Nov. 12 (preschool-grade 5), and Thursday, Nov. 13 (grades 6-12).

Good luck, and happy drawing!
