Haverford College Quaker & Special Collections invites applications for the Gest Fellowship, which supports one month of research in Haverford’s unique collections.

All projects should include religion as a focus; in the spirit of Margaret Gest’s vision, projects should be interdisciplinary and cross-cultural. Projects engaging with any religion, religious community, or historical religious practices will be considered. We hope that materials created through these fellowships advance scholarship and engage with our collections in unique and creative ways. Fellowships are open to scholars at any stage in their careers.

Research funded by the 2016 application cycle may be conducted from June 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017. Applications are due February 5, 2016. For more information, please visit http://library.haverford.edu/research/gest-fellowship or contact shorowitz@haverford.edu.
