National Library of Australia

These grant provide support to scholars and researchers resident in Australia whose work in any field would benefit from access to the rich Asian language and Asian-related collections of the National Library. Grants are offered for periods of up to four weeks. These are available to established and early career scholars and to PhD students

All recipients receive in-kind support consisting of:

• Special access to Asian collection stacks and staff expertise, including the support of Asian languages specialist librarians
