Normals Books & Records

Normal's Books & Records was created in 1990 by a collective of artists, writers & musicians. We have been named "A One Stop Cultural Hub" by Baltimore Magazine, listed in John Waters' Top Ten Baltimore picks and received multiple Best Used Bookstore & Best Used Vinyl Store awards from The Baltimore City Paper. We sell everything from the obscure to the indispensable, Jim Thompson to Sapho & all points in between - minus the middle brow. We are also home of The Red Room experimental music series & many erratic free form poetry readings & music shows. We are open 7 days a week.
