The William L. Clements Library offers research fellowships to help scholars gain access to the Library’s rich array of primary sources on early American history. The Clements holdings cover the American experience from 1492 through 1900 and include books, manuscripts, pamphlets, maps, prints and views, newspapers, photographs, and ephemera. These fellowships are broken up into five different categories: Jacob M. Price Visiting Research Fellowships ($1,000 for short-term research), Howard H. Peckham Fellowship on Revolutionary America ($10,000 for post-docs doing research on American history between 1764 and 1783), Earhart Foundation Fellowships on Civil War America ($4,000 for post-docs doing research on American history between 1830 and 1877), Upton Foundation Fellowships on Civil War America ($4,000 for post-docs doing research on American history between 1830 and 1877), and Earhart Foundation Fellowship on American History ($10,000 for post-docs doing research on any aspect of American history prior to 1900). The deadline for most of these fellowships is November 1. See the fellowships page for more information and instructions on how to apply.
