HUNTINGTON LIBRARY: The Huntington Library will begin accepting research fellowship applications for the 2024–25 fellowship year for long-term fellowships, short-term Fellowships, and travel grants on 31 August 2023, until 11:59 p.m. PST on 15 November 2023.

The Huntington offers thirteen long-term fellowships for nine to twelve months in residence, each with a stipend of $50,000. Although nine of these are open to scholars working on projects in any area where the Huntington’s collections are strong, there are specific awards for the study of maritime history (the Kemble fellowship), the history of medicine (the Molina fellowship) and the history of science (the Dibner fellowships). Three awards (the Thom fellowships) are reserved for recent postdoctoral scholars.

Approximately 140 short-term fellowships are available for one to five months in residence and carry monthly stipends of $3,500. They are open to scholars in any field where the Huntington’s collections are strong.

Recipients of all fellowships are expected to be in continuous residence at the Huntington and to participate in, and make a contribution to, its intellectual life.

Six travel grants for study abroad are available in any of the fields in which the Huntington’s own collections are strong and where the research will be carried out in libraries or archives outside of the United States or Canada, especially those in the United Kingdom, continental Europe, or Latin America.
