Colleagues,
Please forward this reminder to potential applicants:
Friends of the Princeton University Library Research Grant Program
Each year, the Friends of the Princeton University Library offer
short-term Library
Research Grants to promote scholarly use of the
library’s research collections. Up to $3,500 is available per award.
Applications will be considered for scholarly use of archives,
manuscripts, rare
books, and other rare and unique holdings of the
Department of Rare Books and Special Collections, including Mudd Library;
as well as rare books in Marquand Library of Art and Archaeology, and in
the East Asian Library (Gest Collection). Special grants are awarded in
several areas: the Program in Hellenic Studies supports a limited number
of library fellowships in Hellenic studies, and the Cotsen Children’s
Library supports research in its collection on aspects of children’s books.
The Maxwell Fund supports research on materials dealing with
Portuguese-speaking cultures. The Sid Lapidus '59 Research Fund for Studies
of the Age of Revolution and the Enlightenment in the Atlantic World covers
work using materials pertinent to this topic.
