Mellon Fellowships for Dissertation Research in Original Sources

The Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) offers fellowships for dissertation research in the humanities or related social sciences using original sources. The purposes of this fellowship program are to: help junior scholars in the humanities and related social sciences gain skill and creativity in developing knowledge from original sources; enable dissertation writers to do research wherever relevant sources may be, rather than just where financial support is available; encourage more extensive and innovative uses of original sources in libraries, archives, museums, historical societies, and related repositories in the U.S. and abroad; and capture insights into how scholarly resources can be developed for access most helpfully in the future.
 
The upcoming deadline is December 4, 2019 and you can apply and find out more here.
