Newberry Library Fellowships in the Humanities, 2010-2011

The Newberry’s fellowships support humanities research in our collections. Our collections are wide-ranging, rich, and sometimes a little eccentric.  If you study the humanities, chances are good we have something for you.  We promise you remarkable collections; a lively interdisciplinary community of researchers; individual consultations on your research with staff curators, librarians, and scholars; and an array of scholarly and public programs.

Long-term fellowships

Long-term fellowships support research and writing by scholars with a doctorate.  Fellowship terms range from six to eleven months with stipends of up to $50,400.  Deadline: January 11, 2010.

Short-term fellowships

Ph.D. candidates and post-doctoral scholars are eligible for short-term travel-to-collections fellowships.  These are usually awarded for a period of one month. Most are restricted to scholars who live and work outside the Chicago area.  Stipends are $1600 per month.

NEW:   We invite short-term fellowship applications from teams of two or three scholars who plan to collaborate intensively on a single, substantive project.  The stipend is $1600 per fellow per month.  Teams should submit a single application, including cover sheets and CVs from each member.

Deadline: March 1, 2010.
