The Warburg Library is a research library providing support for students, academics and a national and international scholarly community.

The collection, arranged thematically in a unique subject-order designed to facilitate interdisciplinary research, makes it an essential resource for the history of the classical tradition in the Middle Ages and Early modern time and Renaissance studies.

Recipients will be required to attend the Library daily (Monday to Friday) for the duration of their award, where they will be allocated a desk, to be free of other significant professional obligations during their stay, and focus their research on the Library’s collections.

Please note Persons living in London or nearby (less than 70 miles) will not be considered for the award of a Fellowship.

Successful applicants will be notified by Monday, 1 May 2017 and will have up to one year to use their award. They must submit a brief report upon the completion of their visit.
