Charles Silverstein and William Bory Fellowship

Ends on

The New York Public Library is pleased to announce the Charles Silverstein and William Bory Fellowship to support scholars researching any LGBTQ+ topic using the collections and resources of the Library. The fellowship is open to emerging and established scholars; however, preference will be given to academics and independent scholars that do not have permanent academic appointments, focusing on doctoral candidates and early career scholars working toward their first publications.  

The selected scholars will receive $7,500 to fund four to eight weeks of in-person research at The New York Public Library. They will be expected to utilize the Library’s premier LGBTQ+ collections, though it is not expected they confine themselves to those collections.

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.
