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.

Long-Term Fellowships are intended to support individual scholarly research and promote serious intellectual exchange through active participation in the Newberry's scholarly activities, including Fellows' Seminars and Weekly Colloquium. Applicants must hold a PhD by the application deadline in order to be eligible. 

These residential fellowships are available to postdoctoral scholars for 4 to 9 months with a stipend of $5,000 per month. Awardees may combine their Newberry fellowship award with sabbatical funding or other stipendiary support. Fellows are welcome to stay in residence at the Newberry beyond the terms of their fellowship, but the amount of their stipend cannot be increased beyond the initial award.

The deadline for long-term fellowships is November 1, 2020. For more information and to apply, please visit http://www.newberry.org/long-term-fellowships.
