Cordelia dogears pages in her books, library books, too. I've tried to break her of the habit, but she doesn't see anything wrong with it. It's not that she doesn't have bookmarks; she must have at least half a dozen nice ones, and she can get bookmarks from the school library any time. She just doesn't like bookmarks. I think that she feels they get in the way and that she doesn't like having one more thing to keep track of. I was brought up to believe that dogearing was bad, that it damaged books, so I cringe a little each time I see her do it.

Would it help to have a librarian tell her that it's inappropriate to treat books that way?

It might help. She respects authority figures. I'll mention it to the school librarian.
