APPLICATION FOR THE
COUNCIL ON BOTANICAL AND HORTICULTURAL LIBRARIES (CBHL)

The purpose of the Founders' Fund Travel Fellowship Award is to provide limited financial support to assist four qualified applicants in attending the annual meeting. Should more than four applicants qualify to receive the award, the recipients will be selected by blind lottery. A Fellowship winner may only reapply for the Award after ten years.
The amount of the award is US $500.00, plus the meeting registration fee (not including pre- or post- meeting events) will be waived. Winners will receive their award checks at the meeting. Established in 1991, the Founders' Fund Travel Fellowship is a memorial to deceased CBHL members.
