Folger’s extraordinary collections are essential to understanding the humanities and their continued resonance and importance in our world. Through increased digital access and partnerships with Folger librarians, the program puts fellows into direct and sustained engagement with our rare and historical art, books, costumes, manuscripts, periodicals, prints, and visual resources. The Folger Institute is committed to supporting collections-based research and providing scholars with the resources they need to pursue and advance their work; they will offer non-residential research fellowships, in the amount of $3,500, to support four continuous weeks of research and writing.
