The Newberry Library, an independent research library in Chicago, invites applications for its 2011-2012 Residential Fellowships in the Humanities. All proposed research must be appropriate to the collections of the Newberry Library (excluding certain short-term awards). Long-term residential fellowships are available to postdoctoral scholars for periods of six to eleven months, generally with a stipend of up to $50,400. Applicants for postdoctoral awards must hold the Ph.D. at the time of application. 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. The tenure of short-term fellowships varies from one week to two months. The amount of the award is generally $1,600 per month. Long-term fellowship applications are due January 10, 2011; most short-term fellowship applications are due February 10, 2011. Visit our website for information and application materials:
