Diamonstein-Spielvogel Fellowship Program

Ends on

The New York Public Library is pleased to offer the Diamonstein-Spielvogel Fellowship Program to support advanced research at the Library’s flagship Stephen A. Schwarzman Building. This fellowship is open to Ph.D. candidates, post-doctoral scholars, and independent researchers with projects that would significantly benefit from research conducted onsite at the Schwarzman Building. Projects requiring access to original materials including manuscripts, archives, books, photographs, prints, maps, newspapers, and journals will be given preference, but all worthy projects will be considered. Applicants studying the humanities as well as those working in the visual, auditory/performing, and literary arts are welcome to apply. Projects focused on science, technology, psychology, public policy, education, and other areas are also eligible, but only if the proposed project is centered on humanities-related methodologies.

Established with the generous support of the Diamonstein-Spielvogel Foundation, the Fellowship Program has supported 26 Diamonstein-Spielvogel Fellows over the last five years and will support one additional fellow for four continuous months, to be taken between January - May 2027, with a stipend of $24,000. 

More information, including full application instructions and eligibility requirements, is available on the Library's website—please carefully read through this information before beginning your application.
