The William L. Clements Library
The William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan is now accepting applications for 2025–26 research fellowships. The Clements’ holdings—books, manuscripts, pamphlets, maps, prints and views, newspapers, photographs, ephemera—are among the best in the world on almost any aspect of the American experience from 1492 through 1900 and support a diverse array of research projects.
Particular strengths include military history, gender and ethnicity, religion, the American Revolution, Native American history, slavery and antislavery, Atlantic history, the Caribbean, cartography, the Civil War, reform movements, and travel and exploration, among others.
The Clements offers long-term (three months), short-term (one month), and week-long fellowships, as well as a digital fellowship with no residency requirement. Applications are due by 15 January 2025 for research to be undertaken between 1 June 2025 through 31 May 2026.
