Dear Sri Munesh Kumar,

I could not make out what type of Fellowship you have intended to mean, but in case it is for doing Doctoral Research, ICSSR provides "salary protected" fellowships for doing Doctoral Research (in Social Sciences which includes Librarianship) to working teachers. I have no idea though whether it is applicable to Librarians also (but I don't think there is any reason to differentiate the Librarians)

You can see the ICSSR website and get detailed information.

Mahindra Group also offer fellowship to working teachers/professionals. I can not remember exactly whether "Information Services" is still included under its fold but as I understand, they curtailed some subject fields.

Mr. Ramesh here has referred to IFLA Fellowship ( I presume it is Jordan Fellowship) which is not for pursuing Doctoral Research as I suppose.

There were similar foreign fellowships for "Career Development" like "Pearson Fellowship" of IDRC.

There are subject specific fellowships  which you will be knowing better; like  WHO & MLA have such fellowships in the fields of Health Sciences Librarianship/Medical Librarianship (however as I understand, the WHO fellowships are utilized by people from NML.The Depts. of Library & Information Sciences of Loughborough University in UK and Simmons College, Boston also offer short term fellowship.

I must confess that I have been sort of 'rusty' as I have not enquired/searched their offerings since last two decades.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray

Dear Ms. Chhabra, Thanks for your post.

You may contact the BCL or American Centre Libraries in case you live in four Metros. Besides, you can search websites of Australian & Canadian Library Associations. I am sure you will get many tips. Of course you have to clear TOEFL or its similar examinations..

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray
