The Los Angeles County Library Tuesday announced the return of its Bookmark Contest for the 46th year, giving young readers a chance to show their love for books and libraries.

Starting Tuesday through Oct. 18, county youth can design original bookmarks inspired by reading, books, libraries or their own imagination for consideration. Each library will select a local winner for each grade-level category, which will be broken down into the following: kindergarten through second grade, third grade through fifth grade, sixth through eighth grades, and ninth to 12th grade.

Winners are expected to be announced in November. The L.A. County Board of Supervisors will then select 20 grand prize winners, five of which will be representing each supervisor’s district in the spring.
