Reminder: The Lewis Walpole Library 2014-2015 Fellowships & Travel Grants In Eighteenth-Century Studies The Lewis Walpole Library, a department of Yale University Library, invites applications to its 2014-2015 fellowship program. Located in Farmington, Connecticut, the Library offers short-term residential fellowships and travel grants to support research in the Library's rich collections of eighteenth-century materials (mainly British), including important holdings of prints, drawings, manuscripts, rare books, and paintings. Scholars pursuing postdoctoral or advanced research, as well as doctoral candidates at work on a dissertation, are encouraged to apply. Recipients are expected to be in residence at the Library, to be free of other significant professional obligations during their stay, and to focus their research on the Lewis Walpole Library's collections. Fellows also have access to additional resources at Yale, including those in the Sterling Memorial Library, the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, and the Yale Center for British Art. Residential fellowships include the cost of travel to and from Farmington, accommodation for four weeks in an eighteenth-century house on the Library's campus, and a per diem living allowance. Travel grants cover transportation costs to and from Farmington for research trips of shorter duration and include on-site accommodation. This year the Lewis Walpole Library and the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library are offering a joint Fellowship award to support up to eight weeks research in both collections. The joint Fellowship is administered by the Lewis Walpole Library. Decisions are based on a number of factors, including the merits of the project and fit with the collections. In your application, please indicate if you would like to be considered for the joint Lewis Walpole Library-Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library Fellowship. To apply for a fellowship or travel grant, candidates should send a curriculum vitae and a brief research proposal (not to exceed three pages) to: Margaret K. Powell, W.S. Lewis Librarian and Executive Director; The Lewis Walpole Library, PO Box 1408, Farmington, CT 06034 USA; fax: 860-677-6369; [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
