Robert Clavell (born in or before 1633 – died before 8 August 1711), was a bookseller of London. He was born in Steeple, Dorset, of a branch of an old Dorsetshire family, being baptised there on 18 September 1632. He is better known, however, as the central organiser of the term catalogues that appeared in London between 1668 and 1711.
