In addition to the above grants that relate to the year's theme, the Getty Research Institute also offers Library Research Grants. These awards provide short-term support to scholars at all levels to pursue independent projects that will benefit from research in the collections housed in the Getty library. Projects need not relate to the theme of the scholar year. Grantees will receive partial support for costs related to research, travel, and living expenses for periods ranging from several days to a maximum of three months. The Getty Conservation Institute offers support for professionals and scholars in conservation and allied fields to pursue independent research while in residence at the Getty Center.
Grants range from three to nine months in duration.
Grantees will receive a stipend, an office at the Getty Center, and off-site housing. The J. Paul Getty Museum offers three-month residential appointments to invited guest scholars working on projects related to the Museum's collections and interests. Internships at the Getty Center are also available for graduate students who intend to pursue careers in museums and related fields of the visual arts, humanities, and sciences. The next annual deadline is November 1, 2001. Application materials will be available online in July 2001.
