         [please excuse multiple posting of this announcement]
 
 
                       HELEN WALLIS FELLOWSHIP (2000)
 
 
              Closing date for the second award:  1 May 1999
              ----------------------------------------------
 
     An annual fellowship was recently established at the British Library
     to honour the memory of Helen Wallis and confer recognition by the
     Library on scholars whose work will promote the extended and
     complementary use of the British Library's book and cartographic
     collections.  Dr Helen Wallis OBE was Map Librarian at the British
     Museum and then British Library (1967-86).
 
     Preference will be given to proposals which both relate to the
     Library's collections and have an international dimension.
     Applicants will be expected to refer to the classes of material they
     intend to consult and to demonstrate how their research might be
     disseminated.  The fellowship may be held as a full or part-time
     appointment, but would normally be for 6-12 months.
 
     The fellow will be entitled to all the privileges accorded to the
     Centre for the Book fellows. This means, for example, being able to
     work after the reading rooms have closed, and being provided with a
     work station in the Map Library (with an email account).  In addition,
     the fellowship carries with it a voucher worth 300 pounds to be spent
     on Library services.
 
     For the *full* terms of reference please contact the undersigned.
 
     [It would be most helpful if you told us where you saw this notice].
