Latin American and Caribbean Studies: Research Grants & Fellowships

Princeton University -Friends of Princeton University Library Research

Each year, the Friends of the Princeton University Library offer short-term Library Research Grants to promote scholarly use of the Princeton University Library special and distinct collections. Applications will be considered for scholarly use of archives, manuscripts, rare books, and other rare and unique holdings in Special Collections, including Mudd Library; as well as rare books in Marquand Library of Art and Archaeology, and in the East Asian Library (Gest Collection). These grants, which have a value of up to $6,000 plus transportation costs, are meant to help defray expenses incurred in traveling to and residing in Princeton during the tenure of the grant. The length of the grant will depend on the applicant’s research proposal but is ordinarily between two and four weeks. Library Research Grants can be used from May of the year they are awarded through the following April.

The Goizueta Graduate Fellowship Program supports U.S.-based doctoral research at the esteemed Cuban Heritage Collection (CHC) at the University of Miami Libraries. We aim to provide access to our vast repository of materials available in the CHC to doctoral researchers contributing to scholarship in Cuban and Cuban diaspora studies. 

Ph.D. students with an interdisciplinary approach to the study of Cuba and its diaspora, of any time period, are encouraged to apply.
