The Museum Plantin-Moretus and the Hendrik Conscience Heritage Library are launching a call for applications for a travel grant for research into the history of the early printed book (15th-18th century) in Antwerp, with the gracious support of the Thierry and Frédéric Nottebohm Grant of the Nottebohm Family Foundation. The fellowship is intended to promote research on the history of the early printed book (15th-18th century) in Antwerp. It allows scholars to travel to Antwerp to conduct research on the collections of both institutions.

The grant provides a maximum of 2000 euros for researchers living in Europe and a maximum of 3000 euros for researchers outside Europe. The grant can only be used for transportation and accommodation. More information can be found on the webpage: https://consciencebibliotheek.be/en/fellowship-programme-2025. If you have further questions, do not hesitate to reach out to Zanna and/or myself.

Please send your applications to steven.vanimpe@antwerpen.be and zanna.vanloon@antwerpen.be before October 1st, 2025.
