Thematic Exhibitions

By ​Gintautas Deksnys

 Editor's Note: Gintautas is sharing some of his activities for promoting and educating people about bookmarks (aka book tabs).  His idea is to create thematic exhibitions to focus on relevant events or topics.  He has also created his own personal bookmark. Updated 10 December 2022

After the beginning of the school year, my activities as a teacher intensified. But regardless of this, book tabs as true friends help to educate the younger generation and educate the public with various possible activities.

Lately, I have been "recruiting" thematic exhibitions of my personal collection in order to celebrate public holidays and memorable dates. One of them is the anniversary of the founding of the Lithuanian Armed Forces (November 23).

I share with you my thematic collections, which I will soon present to various audiences (students, doctors, seniors, war veterans, students, library visitors). Of course, I will give lectures on relevant topics. 

A recent example is the presentation of a thematic exhibition of book tabs on the aviation theme and paying respect to the fallen pilots shown in this article from the regional newspaper Laikraštis Gyvenimas, 23 November 2022.

Here is another example from my collection on the theme of States and Cities. 

And here is a personal bookmark from a banquet I hosted where the bookmark served as a guest card.
