ACLS created the Frederick Burkhardt Residential Fellowships for Recently Tenured Scholars in 1999 to support scholars in the humanities and interpretive social sciences in the crucial years immediately following the granting of tenure, and to provide emerging leaders in their fields with the resources to pursue long-term, unusually ambitious projects. The final competition was held in 2020.
The American Antiquarian Society was one of thirteen major research libraries and interdisciplinary centers participating in this program.
