The mission of the funder, presumably the American Geographical Society Library (AGSL) supported by Helen and John S. Best and the AGSL community, is to foster scholarly research in geography and related disciplines by providing financial support to scholars who require access to the extensive collections of the AGSL at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM). This is achieved through fellowship grants aimed at supporting research that benefits significantly from the AGSL collections.
The American Geographical Society Library Research Fellowship program is designed to assist scholars who are not local to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) and whose research requires extensive use of the AGS Library. The program is sustained by donations from members of the AGSL community, including significant contributions from Helen and John S. Best, with the aim of continuing their vision. The supported research encompasses a wide array of subjects within geographical study, such as the history of cartography, geographic thought, historical geography, and themes involving a significant geographical component. The fellowship offers up to four weeks of financial support, providing a weekly stipend of $500 to cover travel and living expenses. Fellows are required to be in residence during their grant term, contribute a report on their research findings, and acknowledge the Fellowship in any subsequent publications derived from their supported research.
