Jan Evertsen Cloppenburgh Jr. (1571–1648) was a Dutch publisher in Amsterdam during the Dutch Golden Age. Born in Ruinen, Drenthe, he was already a bookbinder in Amsterdam by 1589 and married Annetje Pieters in 1597. He had an older brother with the same name who became a publisher in Deventer, so he is called Jr. Cloppenburgh published many books, mostly of strict Reformed nature, including Johan de Brune's Emblemata of Zinne-werck. He was buried in the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam on 3 October 1648.
