# Bookmarks

Bookmarks is a personalization component that allows the end user to save a given navigation and component state in order to be able to share it or return to it at a later time.

Once a bookmark has been created, the user can click upon it to return to that state. Bookmarks are listed in the order they were created, along with an accompanying description and date.

Note: The Bookmarks component does not require a backing data source. It stores and retrieves data from the underlying Liferay database.
Note: The Bookmarks component supports the use of aggregated records.
