Hello,

I am writing today to ask if you would assist me by letting your graduate
students and Political Science faculty know about* a visiting scholar
travel award *that the University of Nevada, Reno now has available. Here
is the information I would like to share:

*The University Libraries at the University of Nevada, Reno* is pleased to
announce the Bruce and Nora James Visiting Scholar Award for the Study of
Nevada Politics and Public Service. The *$5000 *James Visiting Scholar
Award supports travel, lodging, and meal expenses for a scholar wishing to
explore the vast Nevada-centric political and public service archival
collections at the University of Nevada, Reno – currently comprising over
200 collections. The collections touch on both state level issues as well
as regional and federal topics. The Award is open to both emerging and
established scholars.

Applications are due November 2, 2025 with onsite study expected in summer
of 2026.

Thank you,

~ Kim
