            HELEN WALLIS FELLOWSHIP AT THE BRITISH LIBRARY (2001)


                      -------------------------
                      Closing date:  1 May 2000
                      -------------------------


     This annual, named fellowship offers a convenient and 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 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.

     [It would be most helpful if you told us where you saw this notice].
