Appel à candidatures pour la « Annegret Fauser and Tim Carter Fellowship », département musical de la Library of Congress (Washington).

« The Library of Congress Music Division often hosts fellows and internships through a variety of programs, such as the Library’s Junior Fellows program. These opportunities for students and emerging scholars serve as a platform for the Library to engage new generations of researchers, advance the practice of librarianship, and promote discovery in the collections. In 2024, the Music Division will launch a new fellowship, the Annegret Fauser and Tim Carter Research Fellowship, made possible by a generous donation of Drs. Fauser and Carter in 2022. For decades, Drs. Fauser and Carter have been regular researchers in the Performing Arts Reading Room and good friends to the Music Division.  

The purpose of the award is to ensure support for post-doctoral (or equivalent) researchers of any nationality engaging in projects centered on collections held within the Library’s Music Division. Recipients may engage with other research collections in the Library or elsewhere in Washington, D.C., but the primary focus will be the Music Division collections. The 2024 award for the fellowship will be a stipend of up to $2,000 that is to be used to support travel (e.g., airfare, train, mileage, etc.) to and from Washington, D.C., overnight accommodations, as well as other research expenses. The Fellowship will be awarded to applicants proposing well-conceived projects that will primarily use the Music Division’s collections. The Library reserves the right to not award the Fellowship or to award more than one Fellowship. »
