The Hill Museum & Manuscript Library (HMML) announces grants<\/a> available for cataloging work in its eastern Christian collections in Arabic\/Gar\u0161\u016bn\u012b, Armenian, Old Church Slavonic, and Syriac. These grants are funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.<\/p>\n

\"\"Many of these collections are greatly understudied and catalogers thus have prime opportunities for new and further research, as well as the satisfaction of making a contribution to our knowledge of the literature and of manuscript traditions.<\/p>\n

The grants support full-time cataloging work for periods of one to six months, and are renewable. The work may be done anywhere; residence at HMML is not expected. Catalogers will be expected to prepare text-level records for, ideally, 75 manuscripts per month (with these numbers adjusted for genres with multiple texts per manuscript, such as hagiography and homilies). A sample record may be viewed\u00a0here<\/a>.\u00a0A brief report summarizing completed work (numbers, notable finds, etc.) will be sent twice a month to HMML\u2019s lead cataloger of eastern Christian manuscripts, Adam McCollum. Completed records will be submitted on a monthly basis.<\/p>\n

The grants offer a stipend of $2500\/month, with the added benefit of copies of two digitized manuscripts from HMML\u2019s collections each month at no cost, which may be used for personal research. Those who wish to apply for a cataloging grant may send their CV and a cover letter to Adam McCollum (amccollum@csbsju.edu<\/a>), to whom also any informal enquiries may be sent off-list.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
