Claude Bendier (died 1677) was a doctor of the Sorbonne, canon of Saint-Quentin, Aisne, and a well-known French bibliophile.
Born in Saint-Quentin in an unknown year, he always remained strongly attached to his native city, to which he bequeathed his 3000 volume library on the condition that it be open to the public twice a week. His Life of St. Quentin was read in many primary schools during the Restoration and the early reign of Louis-Philippe.
