Research Fellowships at the Edward Worth Library, Dublin, in 2026
The Edward Worth Library, Dublin, is offering two research fellowships, to be held in 2026, to encourage research relevant to its collections. The Worth Library is a collection of c. 4,300 books, left to Dr Steevens’ Hospital by Edward Worth (1676-1733), an early eighteenth-century Dublin physician. The collection is particularly strong in three areas: early modern medicine, early modern history of science and, given that Worth was a connoisseur book collector interested in fine bindings and rare printing, the History of the Book. Research does not, however, have to be restricted to these three key areas.
The closing date is Tuesday 31 March 2026.
