18 months of stipend support (2–3 fellowships) per year for three years and a contribution to defray costs associated with the selection of fellows.

The New York Public Library (NYPL) respectfully requests $385,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities to support stipend and selection expenses for long-term fellowships housed at the Center for Research in the Humanities (CRH) at the Library's landmark Stephen A. Schwarzman Building. Fellows will benefit from the Schwarzman Building's 4.3 million volume general humanities collection, which includes many rare and unique items, as well as NYPL's system-wide resources. During their time at the Center, Fellows will have opportunities to connect and share their work with other scholars and NYPL's broader community of patrons.
