Long-Term Fellowships are available to postdoctoral scholars who wish conduct research at the Newberry; applicants for long-term opportunities must hold a PhD by the application deadline, which is November 15. 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 the weekly colloquium. Stipends for Long-Term Fellowships are $4,200 per month.

The Monticello College Foundation Fellowship for Women is designed for a postdoctoral woman at an early stage (pre-tenure) of her academic career, whose work gives clear promise of scholarly productivity and who would benefit significantly from research, writing, and participation in the intellectual life of the Newberry. The applicant’s topic must be related to the Newberry’s collection. Preference will be given to proposals particularly concerned with the study of women. Applicants must request at least four and no more than six months of support.
