*American Geographical Society Library Fellowships for 2014*

The American Geographical Society Library, University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee Libraries, welcomes applications for two short-term
research fellowship programs:

*McColl Research Program Fellowships*
This is a short-term fellowship program available to individuals who
wish to communicate their geographical research results to a broad,
educated general audience. Awards of $3300 for four-week fellowships
will be provided to support residencies for the purpose of conducting
research that makes direct use of the Library, and results in
publication in a mutually agreed upon outlet.

*Helen and John S. Best Research Fellowships*
This is a short-term fellowship intended to support individuals whose
research would benefit from extensive use of the AGS Library. Stipends
of $400 per week, for periods up to 4 weeks, will be awarded.

The American Geographical Society Library is one of North America’s
foremost geography and map collections with strengths in geography,
cartography and related historical topics. An extensive collection of
books, periodicals, photos, maps, pamphlets, atlases, globes, electronic
data, and the archives of the Association of American Geographers and
the American Geographical Society are maintained at the AGS Library.  In
addition, researchers benefit from access to the UWM Libraries print and
online collections during their residency. Please note that not all AGS
Library materials are listed in the online catalog, but finding aids and
professional staff are available to assist in determining if resources
in the AGSL are suitable for a given research project.

Applications must be received by October 21, 2013. All fellowships are
tenable in 2014.
