> Sponsor: Friends of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Libraries
>
> SYNOPSIS:
> The sponsor offers a minimum of four grants-in-aid annually, each
> one month in duration, for research in the humanities in any field
> appropriate to the collections. The purpose is to foster the

> holdings, and to make them better known and more accessible to a wider
> circle of scholars. The grants-in-aid are designed primarily to help
> provide access to UW-Madison Library resources for people who live
> beyond commuting distance. Preference will be given to scholars who
> reside outside a seventy-five-mile radius of Madison. The grantee is
> expected to be in residence during the term of the award, which may be
> taken up at any time during the year.
