USA : New England Regional Fellowship Consortium

The New England Regional Fellowship Consortium, a collaboration of 18
major cultural agencies, will offer at least 10 awards in 2010–2011.
Each grant will provide a stipend of $5,000 for a minimum of eight
weeks of research at participating institutions. Awards are open to
U.S. citizens and foreign nationals who hold the necessary U.S.
government documents. Grants are designed to encourage projects that
draw on the resources of several agencies. Each award will be for
research at a minimum of three different member institutions. Fellows
must work at each of them for at least two weeks. NERFC expects
fellows to visit all the repositories they list in their proposals.
The Consortium’s policy is to ensure that each member with collections
hosts fellows every year. An applicant’s proposed itinerary may be a
factor in the decision whether to award a fellowship. In keeping with
NERFC’s regional interests, the Consortium may also favor applications
that draw on institutions from more than one metropolitan area. Grants
in this cycle are for the year June 1, 2010–May 31, 2011.
