About the Fellowships
With funding from The Monument Trust, we run a programme of Fellowships for retired museum professionals, aimed at capturing their unrecorded collections-related knowledge.
We hope the Fellowships will encourage museums to find ways to share knowledge and in particular to think about succession planning for collections specialists.
The first round of Monument Fellowships began in 2007 and, since then, the Fellowships have enabled a number of retired specialists to share unrecorded knowledge with former colleagues and the sector.

Monument Fellowships aim to record and share existing collections-related knowledge that might otherwise be lost. They do not support new research.
The Fellowships are a response to our 2005 report, Collections for the Future, which argued that collections knowledge is as important as the collections themselves and demands greater investment.

Fellows work in a host museum, which should be the Fellow's former place of work, and we ask them to share their knowledge with the wider museum community through one or more events.
The programme will end in 2011.
