              NFSA's Centre for Scholarly & Archival Research
                           Research Fellowships
It is with great pleasure that I inform you about the initial round of
Research Fellowships being offered by the NFSA's Centre for Scholarly
and Archival Research. Through these fellowships we are encouraging and
facilitating research into Australia's historic and contemporary moving
image and recorded sound culture. Research projects can investigate the
collection:
   As historical evidence
   As interpretation of the past and enrichment of contemporary culture
   For contemporary creative performance or work
We encourage applications for research projects that expand knowledge
and understanding of the Archive's collection, including its audiovisual
preservation and archival practices.

Fellowships are open to established researchers and audiovisual
practitioners, with a record of significant achievement in a field
relevant to the NFSA. Senior academics, post-doctoral scholars,
independent scholars, writers, audio and audiovisual practitioners,
artists and archive professionals from both Australian and overseas are
eligible to apply.

The fellowships include access to the library and collection, with hands
on assistance and opportunities to work with archivists and curators
with deep experience in their fields. We also offer rent-free
accommodation in comfortable quarters close by and a well equipped work
space and office facilities.

Information about the research fellowships, the NFSA collection and the
fellowship application form are available from the NFSA website:
www.nfsa.afc.gov.au/csar. Applications for this round close on 30
November 2006.

If you have any inquiries about the fellowships please contact the
Coordinator Of Centre for Scholarly and Archival Research, Marilyn
Higgins on +61 2 6248 2032. I hope you will consider this opportunity
and share the information about the fellowships with your colleagues and
networks. I have included a summary of the fellowship program and the
web link for your inclusion in your newsletter or relevant publications.
