# There's a major dispute in the poskim whether it is permissible to place a laptop with words of Torah on the screen on top of a sefer in the middle of learning. Most poskim are strict and don't allow this, but some poskim allow it when there's no space in order not to waste time from learning.<ref>Kuntres Ohel Yakov (Kavod Vkedushat Sefarim p. 87-107) quotes many teshuvot about this topic. Rav Nevinsal, Rav Shternbuch, R' Yisay Meiselman, R' Tzvi Weber, Avnei Darech, and Ashar Chanan 8:44, permit placing a laptop on top of a sefer for the sake of learning if there's no place. However, Rav Azriel Auerbach, Rav Sarya Debelitsky, R' Yosef Liberman, R' Eliyahu Shlesinger, R' Moshe Chaliva, R' Chaim Roter, R' Dovid Teharani, and R' Moshe Brandsdorfer are strict in all circumstances. </ref>
#Some say it’s forbidden to leave one Sefer inside another one to keep one’s place. <ref>Kitzur S”A 28:9, Aruch HaShulchan Y”D 282:23, Pitchei Teshuva Y”D 282:17 in name of Chamudei Daniel, and Rav Elyashiv in Avnei Yashfei 1:202 write that it’s forbidden to leave one Sefer inside another to keep the place. However, Tzeddaka UMishpat (Rabbi Yacov Balvia, 16:27, pg 383); (quoted by Yalkut Yosef (Kriyat Torah pg 324)) is lenient based on the Magen Avraham 154:14 who permits having one Sefer lean on another in order to learn. </ref>

#It’s permitted to leave papers with Torah written on them inside a Sefer. <ref>Aruch HaShulchan Y”D 282:23 writes that one may leave chiddushei Torah inside a Sefer. Similarly, Eliyah Rabba 154:10 and Mishna Brurah 154:31 write that one may not leave blank paper in a Sefer implying that paper with divrei Torah may be left in a Sefer.</ref>

#One shouldn’t leave a piece of paper, pen, or anything similar in a Sefer to guard the object. <ref>Pitchei Teshuva 282:17, Sh”t Igrot Moshe OC 4:72 (quoted in [[Daily Halacha]] Discussion pg 28) </ref> However if it’s meant as a bookmark, it’s permissible. <ref>Eliyah Rabba 154:10 writes that one shouldn’t leave a pen inside a Sefer, however someone who’s copying over text may leave a pen to mark the place where he left. This is also the opinion of the Kaf HaChaim 154:56. Rav Avigdor Nevinsal (Ohel Yakov Kavod Ukedushat Sefarim p. 20) writes that it is permitted to leave a blank piece of paper in a sefer as a bookmark. Tzeddaka UMishpat (Rabbi Yacov Balvia, 16:27, pg 383); (quoted by Yalkut Yosef Kriyat Torah pg 324 and Piskei Teshuvot 154:23) writes that any use of the Sefer for learning purposes one may be lenient on. [The Magen Avraham 154:14, Chaye Adam 31:48, Kitzur S”A 28:9, and Mishna Brurah 154:31 write that a pen or paper without Divrei Torah shouldn’t be left in a Sefer but don’t mention the case where it’s meant to be a bookmark.] </ref>
