William P. Heidrich Research Fellowships by Joseph A. Labadie Collection -MIchigan United States






Call For Applications
The University of Michigan Library's Special Collections Library invites applications for fellowships for research in residence. We will award as many as three William P. Heidrich Research Fellowships for projects that require substantial on-site use of the Joseph A. Labadie Collection during calendar year 2018. The amount of funding awarded will be based on the individual travel and housing needs of the recipient(s). The fellowships support travel and living expenses for those those who need that support in order to be able to use the Labadie collection. It will support research in all areas covered by the Labadie Collection. All types of research project proposals will be considered, and no specific credentials are required. Projects outside the typical academic publication model (e.g. creative or artistic projects, journalistic publications, non-typical dissemination modes) are encouraged.
