The purpose of the MLA Cunningham Memorial International Fellowship is to assist in the education and training of health science librarians from countries outside the United States and Canada. This program continues to train and motivate international librarians with the latest advances in the health information profession. Applicants must have an undergraduate degree and/or a master's level library degree. The latter requirement may be waived. Applicants must be working or preparing to work in a health science library in their own country. They are not required to be a member of MLA. Past recipients of the Cunningham Fellowship are ineligible. Applicants must submit a video, as well as, a typed transcript, responding to the questions posted on the award's website. They must also submit three letters of reference, in English, from responsible persons who are familiar with the applicant's qualifications. This may include officers of institutions where the applicant has worked, US officers of information, other librarians from the applicant's country, or persons in North America. The letter should describe the applicant's professional and interpersonal skills; an assessment of their sense of curiosity; and ability to live alone, function in a foreign setting, and adaptability to traveling in unfamiliar places. The applicant's undergraduate and/or graduate transcripts in English must also be submitted. Applicants must also submit a signed statement, in English, from a responsible official of the institution where they work or plan to work, guaranteeing their position upon return. A certificate of good physical health, written in English, from a licensed physician is also required. Please visit the award's website or contact the Medical Library Association for more information.
