Dear Colleagues,

Nicole Willock was chosen to receive one of these grants last year.  It would be wonderful to see another recipient from our field this year. Please know that using either our modern materials or our dpe-cha collection would be grounds enough for application, and our holdings can be found by searching our online catalog (CLIO).  Please also see the CUL Tibetan Studies website for other available resources, archival collections, etc., as well as instructions for searching Tibetan titles using the ALA transliteration system. Though not involved in the selection-process, I am happy to confirm the availability of resources that a potential applicant might want to consult.

The Columbia University Libraries (CUL) invites applications from
scholars and researchers to a new program designed to facilitate

Architectural and Fine Arts Library, The Burke Library at Union
Theological Seminary, Butler Library, the Lehman Social Sciences
Library, the Rare Book & Manuscript Library, the C. V. Starr East
Asian Library, and the Libraries' Global Studies Collections.

Applications will be accepted until February 15, 2013. Award
notifications will be sent to applicants by April 19, 2013 for
research conducted at Columbia during the period July 1, 2013 - June
