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.
