The Bibliothèque Inguimbertine is a scholarly library located in Carpentras. It was established by Joseph-Dominique d'Inguimbert, the Bishop of Carpentras from 1735 to 1754. It has been called "the oldest of our municipal libraries" by chief librarian Jean-François Delmas. It currently contains about 220,000 books.
In 2013, the council decided to move the library into roomier quarters in the former Hôtel-Dieu. Refurbishment works to accommodate the library were completed in April 2024.
