The program provides faculty with funds to support the writing and publishing of new books. Two types of awards are offered: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>R&amp;I Book Fellowships<\/strong> support time for faculty to focus on writing and publishing a book through a course buyout or summer salary support and\/or costs related to the publishing process. Fellowships provide support for only one book, and the expected output is the timely publication of the new book.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>R&amp;I Book Manuscript Workshop Grants<\/strong> provide funds for faculty to participate in an external manuscript workshop to obtain expert feedback on their draft book manuscript or to host a book manuscript workshop that brings external expert reviewers to UNL. Proposals to participate in an external workshop must focus on only one book manuscript, but proposals to host a workshop at UNL may request support for one or multiple UNL-authored book manuscripts to be reviewed in the workshop. The expected outcome is to enhance the quality of the book manuscript(s) prior to submission for publication and thus ultimately contribute to the successful publication of the new book(s).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Funds may not be used to support research, scholarship, creative endeavors, or travel to generate content for books; funding for these activities is available from other R&amp;I internal funding opportunities.
