Description

The Robert & Elizabeth Dole Archives & Special Collections is the official repository for the personal papers of former U.S. Senators Bob and Elizabeth Dole. In addition to significant national and international events, the collections provide a window into the inner workings of congressional leadership, the U.S. government, and policy development in wide-ranging areas like disability rights, agriculture, nutrition, veterans, U.S. foreign policy, and transportation safety. Multiple travel grants are awarded each year to reimburse costs up to $1,000 for researchers traveling to use the Dole Archives. If chosen, grant recipients must be in residence for at least one week and participate in an informal program about their research with students, donors, staff, and other interested parties while in residence. Applications are considered on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted. Applying by June 1 is recommended.
