Henry Belin du Pont Research Grants

The Henry Belin du Pont Research Grants enable scholars to pursue advanced research and study in the library, archival, pictorial, and artifact collections of the Hagley Museum and Library. These grants are intended to support serious scholarly work that makes use of Hagley's research collections and expands on prior scholarship. Application materials should explain the research project's focus, methodology, engagement with existing scholarship, and the intended product, as well as Hagley collection(s) to be used during the proposed grant residency. Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to consult with Hagley staff prior to submitting their application. The stipends are for a maximum of eight weeks and are pro-rated at $400 per week for recipients who reside more than 50 miles from Hagley, and $200 per week for those within 50 miles. Applicants must submit a project description indicating the scope of your research and the existing scholarship with which you engage; and the summary of the Hagley research materials that you plan to consult during your residency and how they are pertinent to your project. The application deadlines are March 31, June 30, and October 31. Please visit the award's website for more information.
