Newberry Library Fellowships in the Humanities, 2005-06

The Newberry Library, an independent research library in Chicago, Illinois,
invites applications for its 2005-06 Fellowships in the Humanities.
Newberry Library fellowships support research in residence at the Library.
All proposed research must be appropriate to the collections of the
Newberry Library. 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 to postdoctoral scholars for periods of six to
eleven months. Applicants for postdoctoral awards must hold the Ph.D. at
the time of application. The stipend for these fellowships is up to
$40,000. Short-term residential fellowships are intended for postdoctoral
scholars or Ph.D. candidates from outside of the Chicago area who have a
specific need for Newberry collections. Scholars whose principal residence
or place of employment is within the Chicago area are not eligible. The
tenure of short-term fellowships varies from one week to two months. The
amount of the award is generally $1200 per month. Applications for
long-term fellowships are due January 10, 2005; applications for most
short-term fellowships are due March 1, 2005. For more information or to
