The National Library of Israel invites scholars to apply for the Stewart and Lynda Resnick Fellowships. Fellows will be in residence at the National Library in Jerusalem for a period of one to two months during the summer of 2026.

  • Two Senior Fellowships will be awarded to tenured (or tenure-equivalent) professors.
  • Two Emerging Scholar Fellowships will be awarded to academics holding full-time positions who completed their doctoral degrees within the last four years.

Both fellowships provide a generous stipend and a substantial digitization allowance.

  • Judaica collection
  • Israel collection
  • Islam and the Middle East
  • Humanities
  • Israeli and Jewish Music
  • The Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People
