The Chair is in residence at the Kluge Center, in the Library of Congress. The Library is at the heart of serious conversation among scholars and policymakers, and the Kluge Center’s distinctive mission is to bridge the gap between scholarship and the policymaking community. As such, the Blumberg Chair holds a highly visible, public role. The Library is particularly interested in scholars who are able and willing to speak beyond their disciplinary home in a way that is accessible and compelling to a broad audience.
In order to apply for the Blumberg Chair we ask for three pieces of information:
- A complete CV including your contact information and publications.
- A brief statement of proposed research (up to 1500 words). In your statement, please include one paragraph that explains why the Library of Congress is the appropriate venue for your research and any particular collections you might use.
- A description of proposed outreach activities (Up to 1000 words).
