Description
The Diamonstein-Spielvogel Fellowship Program at the New York Public Library supports advanced research conducted onsite at the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building. Established with support from the Diamonstein-Spielvogel Foundation, it welcomes humanities research and work in the visual, auditory/performing, and literary arts. Projects in science, technology, psychology, public policy, education, and other fields are also eligible when centered on humanities-related methodologies.
Preference is given to projects requiring original materials, including manuscripts, archives, books, photographs, prints, maps, newspapers, and journals, although all worthy projects will be considered. The Library and Foundation intend the program to support historically under-resourced and underrepresented communities. Fellows receive sustained collection access, shared study space, guidance from Library specialists, and opportunities to engage with peers and the public.
