NINO welcomes scholars from around the world, including the Netherlands, to carry out their research in the NINO Near Eastern Library. Visiting Research Fellows typically use their own funding or external fellowships to finance their stay (including travel, housing and health care provisions). They are expected to take part in NINO’s academic life and either to reside in the Netherlands during their stay or to commute regularly.
Facilities and benefits provided during the Visiting Research Fellow’s term include use of library resources at the NINO Near Eastern Library, use of Leiden University’s ICT services (free Wi-Fi; printing/scanning at one’s own expense), seminar and conference space as needed, office space or flexible work space upon request and based on availability, and opportunities to present research findings through lectures or printed publications, when possible and/or suitable.
Affiliations are awarded for a period of max. 12 months and may be renewed in certain circumstances.
