About the Fellowship
The Burney Centre, in conjunction with the Rare Books and Special Collections Division of the McGill University Library, offers an annual Fellowship, designed to assist scholars who need to travel to and establish temporary residence in Montreal in order to use the resources of the Library. The Fellowship is available to scholars interested in any aspect of Frances Burney, the Burney family, and their extended circle. It carries an award of $3,000 CAN for a one-month stay, at a time to be arranged. The Fellowship is funded by The American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies (ASECS) and McGill University Library. Many thanks to these sponsors for their generous support in having made this fellowship possible.
Please note that we are not currently accepting applications pending further announcements.
