The Library Company of Philadelphia received a $220,500 Project Grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Promotion of the Humanities Research program (CFDA 45.161) to support their Post-Doctoral Fellowship Program. This program fosters collections-based research in American history and culture from the 17th through the 19th centuries, with a focus on the Atlantic world context. The grant funds 14-month residential fellowships for 2-3 postdoctoral scholars annually, enabling them to utilize the Library Company's extensive non-circulating collection of rare books, manuscripts, graphics, and works of art related to early American history. Through this NEH-funded program, the Library Company facilitates advanced humanities scholarship and enhances public access to its invaluable holdings documenting America's founding era.

This is the same level of funding we have enjoyed for the last three grant awards.]
