Arthur and Janet Holzheimer Fellowship in the History of Cartography
The
Newberry Library's long-standing fellowship program provides
outstanding scholars with the time, space, and community required to
pursue innovative and ground-breaking scholarship. In addition to the
Library’s collections, fellows are supported by a collegial
interdisciplinary community of researchers, curators, and librarians. An
array of scholarly and public programs also contributes to an engaging
intellectual environment.
The Arthur and Janet Holzheimer Fellowship in the History of Cartography supports
work by PhD candidates or postdoctoral scholars related to the history
of cartography, or which focus on cartographic materials in the
Newberry’s collection.
Short-Term Fellowships
are available to postdoctoral scholars, PhD candidates, and those who
hold other terminal degrees. Short-Term Fellowships are generally
awarded for 1 to 2 months; unless otherwise noted the stipend is $2,500
per month. These fellowships support individual scholarly research for
those who have a specific need for the Newberry's collection and are
mainly restricted to individuals who live and work outside of the
Chicago metropolitan area. The deadline for short-term opportunities is December 15.
