Bookmarks are especially important for people, who make assignments and have to refer to research papers over and over.

- Firstly, browsers can help you open a website within seconds.
There are websites that we open every day, more than others, and we can add those websites to the bookmark toolbar.
Now, when you launch the browser, you can open those websites right away without any delay. Bookmarks can even help us remember if we have to do something important when we put that bookmark in the toolbar.
However, avoid making a clutter of bookmarks, because you won’t be able to find a website on time when you need to open it quickly.
