James Sibbald (1745/7–1803) was a Scottish bookseller, publisher, journal editor, and author, active in Edinburgh. The son of a farmer, he started in life as a farm labourer, and later became employed in the shop of Charles Elliot, bookseller. In 1783 he went into the bookselling business on his own. He founded the Edinburgh Magazine and edited the Edinburgh Herald, wrote articles on antiquarian subjects, and published the Chronicle of the Poetry of Scotland (1802).
