    Present participle and gerund of bookmark.

    He spent the evening bookmarking articles for his research project.

    Note

    A single spelling does two grammatical jobs. After a form of be it is the progressive participle (she is bookmarking the page). In a noun slot it is the gerund (bookmarking saves time). The verb is transitive, so it keeps a direct object even as a gerund: bookmarking articles. The verb means making whichever kind of bookmark is meant: a strip in a book, a saved web address, or a pointer in a database index.
