This collection comes principally from a donation made to Cornell by the Bolivian
bookseller, Alfredo Montalvo, who has supplied the university with library materials
for over a quarter century.
The pamphlets document a century of Bolivian literate culture, beginning in 1848.
They show a nation's struggle to establish viable institutions, to develop its economy,
to educate its children and the back and forth of political argument.
Pamphlets have been digitized and are available online in the Alfredo Montalvo Bolivian Digital Pamphlets Collection.
