Hello Safranim I just wanted to let you know of a fellowship possibility to use materials in the Department of Special Collections at UCLA. We have a substantial collection of Hebraica and Judaica manuscripts which might be of interest. Please see the announcement below: UCLA Library Special Collections http://www2.library.ucla.edu/special/thayer.cfm The James and Sylvia Thayer Short-Term Research Fellowships support the use of special collections materials by visiting scholars and UCLA graduate students. Special collections materials are located in the Arts, Biomedical, Music, and Research libraries and the University Archives.
