Each year the Historical Society of Pennsylvania awards one Albert M. Greenfield Fellowship for research in 20th-century history.

The Library Company's Cassatt House fellows' residence offers rooms at reasonable rates, along with a kitchen, common room, and offices with internet access, available to resident and nonresident fellows at all hours.
