Applications for MLA's Cunningham Memorial International Fellowship close on 1st December. The Cunningham fellowship is a four-month fellowship for health sciences librarians outside the United States and Canada. It provides the opportunity for observation and supervised work in one or more health sciences libraries in the United States or Canada, a limited amount of travel, and because it runs in the months prior to the MLA annual meeting, an opportunity to attend continuing education courses at the annual meeting. The stipend is $6,000.00US with an additional $2000US being available for travel within the US.
To date, two Australians have been awarded the Fellowship - Francis Bludhorn in 1987 and Saroj Bathia in 2003. Reports of Saroj's experiences are available on the MLA website.
