About the Fellowship
Applications now open! Closing 5pm Friday 12 August.
The inaugural Rainbow Research Fellowship supports research, exploration, and creation of new knowledge about Queensland’s LGBTIQA+ histories and communities using the John Oxley Library and State Library collections and resources.
The fellowship, first of its kind in Queensland and potentially Australia, supports a more inclusive telling of Queensland history.
The Fellowship recipient receives a stipend of $15,000, a personal workspace within the Neil Roberts Research Lounge for 12 months and premium access to State Library’s extensive collections and library staff expertise.
Applications from people who identify as LGBTIQA+ are encouraged.
