The deadline for applications for the 2016 Eccles Centre Visiting Fellowships and Postgraduate Awards is fast upon us.  These awards provide support to scholars who need to visit London for a minimum of one month to use the British Library’s collections relating to North America.  Past recipients have had the opportunity to participate in the Centre’s Summer Scholars series and to contribute to the British Library’s Americas blog.  You can read about some recent projects here: http://britishlibrary.typepad.co.uk/americas/ecclesfellows/.

Applications must be received by 5pm on Saturday 30 January.  Further details about eligibility and the application process are available on the Eccles Centre website: http://www.bl.uk/eccles/fellowships.html.
