Awards of up to $2,000 each are available to scholars living in the United States and $3,000 to those from elsewhere around the world. Consideration may be given for support for shorter periods of research in Madison for individuals who reside in the United States.

• Researchers who have earned a Ph.D
• Scholars or graduate students who have completed all Ph.D. requirements except the dissertation
• Foreign scholars or graduate students who are in the ABD stage of their studies

Applicants’ proposals should state the specific areas and collections to be used in our libraries and provide information as to why these collections will be of unique benefit to their research.
