I feel like this question gets asked periodically in various fora, but perhaps there are new developments I'm not aware of:

Are there any options out there for graduate students looking for fellowships to do specifically DH work? ACH micro-grants and the like are helpful, of course, but I'm thinking of fellowships along the lines of the Mellon dissertation completion fellowship or the CLIR Original Sources fellowships.

I'm asking specifically for American grad students, but I'm sure future readers will appreciate links to other fellowships as well.

Thanks!

Update: People on Twitter suggested a lot of university-specific grad fellowships (at the University of Rochester, the University of Maryland, the University of Washington, the University of Virginia,and Carnegie Mellon).

The Editing Modernism in Canada fellowship is open to grad students at EMIC partner universities. The University of Pennsylvania's Schoenberg Research Center's Graduate Student Fellowship encourages digital projects.

Alex Gil et al.'s list of DH funding opportunities might be useful.

Just a couple of newer ones to add to your list: alongside the "Original Sources" Mellon program you mention above, CLIR and the Library of Congress are offering a fellowship placement in the Library's Preservation Research & Testing Division, for PhD students whose work would benefit from techniques like hyperspectral imaging, x-ray fluorescence, spectroscopy, high-resolution microscopy, etc. -- and METRO has announced a new program that will match fellows with projects in its network of New York-based libraries. This program isn't specifically designed for PhD students, as I understand it, but open to them.
