The Bibliographical Society of Canada Fellowships

Marie Tremaine Fellowship

The Tremaine Fellowship is offered in memory and through the generosity of Marie Tremaine (1902-1984), the doyenne of Canadian bibliographers. The Fellowship was instituted in 1987 and is offered annually to support the work of a scholar engaged in some area of bibliographical research, including textual studies and publishing history and with a particular emphasis on Canada. The amount of the Fellowship is $2,000.00. The recipient of the Marie Tremaine Fellowship also receives a free one-year membership in the society.

Bernard Amtmann Fellowship

The Bernard Amtmann Fellowship is offered in memory of Bernard Amtmann (1907-1979), the noted bookseller and specialist in Canadiana. The Fellowship was offered for the first time in 1992 and will be offered every three years thereafter to support the work of a scholar in one of Bernard Amtmann’s principal areas of interest: Canadiana, book collecting, bookselling, and bibliography. Special consideration will be given to applicants working on some aspect of the book trade. The amount of the fellowship is $1500.
