Martin Felton
Library
“A library is a sacred place for a community; and its sacredness lies in its accessibility, its public nature. It belongs to everyone.”
Ursula K. Le Guin
The Martin Felton Library aims to be the heart of Bolívar School. It is a space where the community can solve its information problems, access reliable sources, find resources for research, and receive the support necessary to carry out academic activities. More than just a physical space or a repository for books, the library is a place to encounter art, science, and culture.

Setas del Colegio Bolívar
Este libro es el resultado de varias caminatas por el campus del Colegio Bolívar de Cali y de la exposición Setas del Colegio Bolívar que se realizó en el salón Colgate en febrero del 2026.
