         Subject: 2001-02 Newberry Fellowships

The Newberry Library invites applications for its Fellowships in the
Humanities, 2001-02.

Long-term fellowships are available to postdoctoral scholars (and Ph.D.
candidates in the case of the Spencer Fellowship) for periods of six to
eleven months, unless otherwise noted under the fellowship description.
Applicants for post-doctoral awards must hold the Ph.D. at the time of
application. The stipend for these fellowships is up to $30,000 unless
specified under the award description.  Long-term fellowships include:

    National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship
    Lloyd Lewis Fellowship in American History
    Monticello College Foundation Fellowship for Women
    Mellon Postdoctoral Research Fellowship
    Spencer Foundation Fellowship in the History of  Education

Short-term fellowships are intended for postdoctoral scholars or Ph.D.
candidates (or equivalent for the field) 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 unless otherwise noted under the award description (a
majority of fellowships are one month or less). The amount of the award
is generally $1200 per month.  Short-term fellowships include:

    Newberry Library Short-Term Fellowship
    American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies Fellowship
    Arthur Weinberg Fellowship for Independent Scholars
    South Central Modern Language Association Fellowship
    The Audrey Lumsden-Kouvel Fellowship

    Newberry/British Academy Fellowship for  Study in Great Britain
    Herzog August Bibliothek Wolfenbttel Fellowship
    Weiss/Brown Publication Subvention Award
    Ecole des Chartes Exchange Fellowship

The application deadline for all fellowships and awards is January 20,
2001. The Newberry Library is an independent research library, free and
open to the public, located on Chicago's near north side. The Newberry's
holdings number more than 1.5 million volumes and 5 million manuscript
pages. The collections concern the civilizations of Western Europe and
