Warren (Robert Penn) Center for the Humanities

The Warren Center invites applications from scholars in all disciplines whose lively presence will help to focus the sponsor's work and stimulate discussions.  The 2010-2011 topic is "Representation and Social Change".  The Warren Center will host a year-long interdisciplinary faculty seminar to explore the complex and multidirectional relationship between representation and social change.  The seminar will include participants who study a broad range of representation, including verbal, visual, and other material means.  These categories could stretch from literature to music to images, both moving and still (including technological representations such as magnetic resonance imaging, sonograms, etc., as well as digital media), and also to material culture (sculpture, pottery, grave goods, and the like).  "Social change" is likewise understood broadly.  It may manifest in activism, policy, or politics, but it also operates at the level of identity, lifestyle, and culture.

Elsevier Foundation Accepting Proposals for Innovative Libraries and New Scholars Programs

The Elsevier Foundation, a philanthropic organization sponsored by Elsevier, a global publisher of scientific, technical, and medical information, is seeking new grant proposals for its 2009 Innovative Libraries in Developing Countries and New Scholars programs. The two programs will provide one, two, and three-year grants of up to $50,000 a year.

The Innovative Libraries in Developing Countries program supports the efforts of libraries in developing countries working to make scientific, technical, and medical information available to those who need it. Past projects have included expanding library information resources through digitization and knowledge preservation, training and education programs for librarians and researchers, and developed/developing world partnerships to provide long-term technical assistance and training.

The New Scholars program supports academic and research communities working to help scholars in the early stages of their science, health, and technology careers balance work and family responsibilities. Previous grants have promoted institutional research, advocacy, and policy development to retain, recruit, and develop women in science, and have enabled researchers to attend conferences critical to their careers by assisting with childcare, mentorship, and networking.
