Catherine N. Norton Fellowship

Posted November 7, 2015

The MBLWHOI Library in Woods Hole, MA invites applications for the Catherine N. Norton Fellowship. This fellowship will be awarded to students and early career librarians, archivists, data science professionals or scholars in the humanities or sciences for a short-term defined project using tools and resources at the MBLWHOI Library or the MBL Archives. The fellowship of up to two thousand dollars can cover travel, housing, and direct project expenses.

This fellowship celebrates Cathy Norton’s commitment to sharing knowledge and information, her ability to inspire, her “just do it” attitude, and her love of a challenge. We encourage applicants to develop creative projects in Archives, Informatics, Collection Analysis, or Digital Collections with a Library mentor. Applicants can also select to work on an existing project for the Library. Projects should be openly accessible, collaborative, innovative, connective, and laying the foundation for new scientific knowledge.

We encourage interested participants to view the full information including application. http://www.mblwhoilibrary.org/about-library/library-fellowships. Fellowship deadlines are January 15^th to be considered for the summer or fall, and August 1^st to be considered for the winter or spring.
