The Oldenburg State Library is the regional library for the northwestern part of Lower Saxony and, along with the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Library in Hanover and the Herzog August Library in Wolfenbüttel, one of the three state libraries in the state.

The library was opened in 1792 as the Duke's Public Library. From 1847, the official name of the library was Öffentliche Bibliothek zu Oldenburg. Since 1925 it has been called the Oldenburg State Library. With the end of the state of Oldenburg, the state library became the responsibility of the newly founded state of Lower Saxony in 1946.
