# Some poskim say that it is permitted to place an adhesive note on a paper if one intends to remove it within 24 hours. <Ref>The Rambam ([[Shabbat]] 10:11) writes that it is Biblically forbidden to glue two pieces of paper together, as this constitutes a [[toldah]] of Tofer. S”A 340:14 agrees. Thus, Rabbi Mordechai Willig (Halachipedia Article 5773 #13) holds that it is an issue of Tofer to place an adhesive note on the page of a sefer.
# Some poskim say that it is permitted to place an adhesive note on a paper if one intends to remove it within 24 hours. Many discourage using a sticky for temporary use since it is usually left there for more than 24 hours.<Ref>The Rambam ([[Shabbat]] 10:11) writes that it is Biblically forbidden to glue two pieces of paper together, as this constitutes a [[toldah]] of Tofer.

* 39 Melachos (Tofer n 8a and p. 822) suggests that as opposed to sewing that may be forbidden if it is temporary (see note 1) because it looks like permanent sewing, gluing two papers together in a way that is clearly temporary is permitted since it does not resemble actual Tofer. Nonetheless, he writes that one should not use adhesive notes because they sometimes are left there for days. Similarly, Rav Hershel Schachter (Halachipedia Article 5773 #13) said that putting a sticky on a piece of paper could be an issue of Tofer unless one intended to remove it a short time afterwards. The [[Shabbos]] Home (p. 78) is lenient if it is removed within 24 hours. </ref>
