OBJECTIVES:  Researchers will be selected on the quality and significance of their research proposal, its relationship to the holdings of the Oberlin College Archives and Oberlin College Library, and on the potential for publication.  Award winners are required to make use of the collections at Oberlin during the summer (May 15 - August 30), at which time they must spend no less than three days conducting research in Oberlin. At the end of the research visit, a brief written report on how the funds were used and on individual publication plans is required. 

ELIGIBILITY
 The award is open to graduate students, academic scholars and to qualified independent researchers. Applicants need not have an academic affiliation. The sponsor welcomes applicants from persons outside the United States. 

FUNDING
 Each summer three awards will be made: one at $1,000 and two at
$500 each. Applications requesting smaller amounts of funding for travel expenses related to research will also be accepted.  (tld)
