Newberry Library Fellowships in the Humanities, 2009-2010
The Newberry Library, an independent research library in Chicago,
Illinois, invites applications for its 2009-2010 Fellowships in the
Humanities. Newberry Library fellowships support research in residence
at the Library, and all proposed research must be appropriate to the
collections (excluding the Terra Foundation Fellowship and certain
short-term awards). Our fellowship program rests on the belief that all
projects funded by the Newberry benefit from engagement both with the
materials in the Newberry’s collections and with the lively community of
researchers that gathers around those collections.
Long-term residential fellowships are available for periods of six to
eleven months to postdoctoral scholars who must hold the Ph.D. at the
time of application. The stipend for these fellowships ranges from
$25,500 to $70,000. In 2008-2009 the Library inaugurated a new Terra
Foundation for American Art Fellowship in Art History carrying an
academic-year stipend of $70,000 for a full professor (or its equivalent
outside the academy) and $50,400 for all other awardees.
Short-term residential fellowships are intended for postdoctoral
scholars or Ph.D. candidates from outside the Chicago area who have a
specific need for Newberry collections. The tenure of short-term
fellowships varies form one week to two months. The amount of the award
is generally $1600 per month.
Applications for long-term fellowships are due January 12, 2009;
applications for most short-term fellowships are due March 2, 2009. For
