-**In 2020/21, we will not be able to offer the grants or at least not with the usual time-table. Generally we write to our libraries in November to gather interest, and we publicise in December, for internships to take place the following year, generally in the Summer. Currently, CERL member libraries are not in the position to plan an internship. We will stay in touch with our members, and if they indicate they are ready to host interns again, we will issue a call.**
+**2021/2022 CALLS**
+CERL would like to offer **six** 2022 Internship and Placement Grants, to the value of 1,000 Euros each, to allow qualified librarians and scholars to work on CERL projects in CERL libraries, or in CERL offices, and to be trained on CERL digital resources, generally for a period of one month. If matched funding is provided by the hosting institution, the period can be extended.

+All internships should take place before the end of December 2022. Each of the projects can be undertaken remotely, in consideration of the still ongoing covid-19 pandemic.
