This includes anyone pursuing research while employed in a library, museum, archive, or other collection-holding institution.\nApplicants who are current doctoral students should note that:\nIn most cases, priority will be given to candidates residing outside of Oxford and to applicants who have not recently completed an Oxford degree.\nIn every case, the selection committee will consider:\nPlease consult the descriptions of named fellowships for any special eligibility terms.\nTerms of the fellowship awards\nProposed research visits must be at least one month.\nUnless otherwise stated, funds of up to \u00a32,200 per month are available to support the eligible costs of research visits. Depending on the method of disbursement and your UK tax status, award funds may be subject to UK tax and National Insurance and the actual amount disbursed may be lower.\nAn invitation to take up a visiting fellowship will be made subject to agreement on the dates of the visit. Applicants should indicate their preferred dates on the application form. See term dates for advice on University of Oxford term times, where relevant. The fellowship year runs from 1 August to 31 July and fellowship visits of whatever duration must be made within this period.\nIn some cases, a visa may be required to travel to the UK. You should make yourself aware of the requirements before accepting the fellowship invitation. You are responsible for securing the appropriate UK visa to make the research visit.\nThe Bodleian Libraries do not assume responsibility for securing housing for fellows. We will, however, offer assistance by providing guidance to local listings of rooms or houses for rent. Note that the cost of accommodation in Oxford is typically high.\nApplicants who have held a named fellowship award will not be considered for the same named fellowship within a period of five years.\nThe Bodleian Libraries will receive printed acknowledgement in any and all publications resulting in whole or in part from research carried out during the period of the fellowship.\nThe Visiting Fellow will provide the Bodleian Libraries with a written report on the completion of their fellowship. A Bodleian Visiting Fellowship is not employment and should not be presented as such to outside parties."},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2026\/10\/15\/bodleian-visiting-fellowships-in-special-collections-2026\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/10\/Jadwiga-scholarship-photo.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/10\/Jadwiga-scholarship-photo.jpg","width":757,"height":952},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2026\/10\/15\/bodleian-visiting-fellowships-in-special-collections-2026\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Bodleian Visiting Fellowships in Special Collections 2026"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#website","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/","name":"Instytut Polski w Londynie","description":"Instytuty Polskie","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"pl-PL"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/650660f82290e905505348ef8ca79a33","name":"konopkab","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"konopkab"},"url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/author\/konopkab\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14499"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14499\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14502,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14499\/revisions\/14502"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
