I see there have been a couple of threads about what OGL books are good for a collection in general but I am interested specifically in what books are being used by the designers of the pathfinder and gamemastery stuff. Obviously PHB, DMG, MM1 (to the extent they are OGL) are being used I see GR's Advanced bestiary is being used, and presumably a Tome of Horrors (which one?). I generally prefer to own the basic reference books rather than rely upon the material in the stat block.

For the most part, the non-core books we've been using now and then in Pathfinder are the various Tome of Horrors books, the Book of Fiends, the Advanced Bestiary, and Plot and Poison. Mostly Necromancer and Green Ronin books, although we'll certainly be using some stuff from Malhavoc soon as well.

I don't mind you guys using some out of the way sources at all. And I know that you plan on providing all the info needed to run the creature. That said, can you please offer some kind of 'if you like the monsters in this book, you should consider product x' or 'if you like the spells in this product, try product y'.
Then you could tell us where you're getting the material, and if we like it, we'll know who to buy it from.

Check the OGL in the back of the book. If there's something that's been used in the module (like Pathfinder 1 and I believe 2), it will be listed there. They're located at the bottom in the second column in bold.
