      HELEN WALLIS FELLOWSHIP AT THE BRITISH LIBRARY (2001)

                            CLOSING DATE:  1 MAY 2001


This annual, named fellowship offers a convenient and unusually privileged
working environment in the British Library.  The fellow will be treated like
a member of staff (i.e. not restricted to reading room hours) and will be
provided with their own work-station, with an  e-mail account and access to
the Internet.  In addition, the fellowship carries with it a voucher worth
300 pounds to be spent within the Library.

The award honours the memory of the former Map Librarian at the British
Museum and then British Library, Dr Helen Wallis OBE (1967-86), and confers
recognition by the Library on a scholar, from *any* field, whose work will
promote the extended and complementary use of the British Library's book and
cartographic collections.

Preference will be given to proposals that relate to the Library's
collections and have an international dimension.  The fellowship may be held
as a full or part-time appointment, and would normally be for 6-12 months.

For the *full* terms of reference please contact the undersigned.
