The Library’s position within the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee Libraries, its location near other major research collections, and its links with scholars and institutions in this country
and abroad, offer a network of resources invaluable for AGSL fellows.
As the former research library and map collection of the American Geographical Society of New York, the Library has strengths in geography, cartography and related historical topics. The Library maintains a wide variety of hard to find primary and secondary resources.
In addition, researchers benefit from access to the UWM Libraries print and online collections during their residency. Not all AGS Library materials are listed in the online catalog, but finding aids and professional staff are available to assist.
Complete
fellowship descriptions and application process can be found on the AGSL website. Past fellowship recipients have included scholars of history, geography, cartography,
climate, environmental studies, and literature.
Timetable: Applications must be received at the AGS Library by December 15, 2019.
Please contact Curator Marcy Bidney ([log in to unmask]) with questions about the fellowships or our collections.
