The Columbia University Libraries (CUL) invites 
applications from scholars and researchers to a 
new program designed to facilitate access to 
Columbia's special and unique collections.  CUL 
will award ten (10) grants of $2500 each on a 
competitive basis to researchers who can 
demonstrate a compelling need to consult CUL 
holdings for their work.  Participating Columbia 
libraries and collections include those located 
on the Morningside Heights campus: the Avery 
Architectural and Fine Arts Library, The Burke 
Library at Union Theological Seminary, Butler 
Library, the Lehman Social Sciences Library, the 
Rare Book & Manuscript Library, the C. V. Starr 
East Asian Library, and the Libraries' Global Studies Collections.

Applications will be accepted until February 15, 
2013.  Award notifications will be sent to 
applicants by April 19, 2013 for research 
conducted at Columbia during the period July 1, 2013 - June 30, 2014.

To submit an application, assemble the following 
materials and select "APPLY" from the top menu on this site:

A two-page (maximum) statement of the nature of 
the research project and its direct relationship 
to specific materials in Columbia's 
libraries.  It will be important to understand 
how holdings unique to Columbia will play a 
special role in accomplishing the research project.
A brief CV (two pages maximum)
Two letters of support from persons familiar with 
the applicant's work.  These must be included
