As a reference book you can’t go wrong with the IBM JCL reference books. They wrote the JCL & the BOOK.

MVS JCL published in 1987 by Mike Murach & Associates, Inc is a good basic reference if I want to look in a book. These days I tend to look things up online.

System 390 JCL, Fourth Edition - Gary DeWard Brown, copyright 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. ISBN 0-471-28309-6. A classic, continuously updated from 1970s includes whys and “how it works” explanations, topics are marked as “Essential”, “Sometimes Used”, and “Rarely Used”. I’ve relied on this book and its predecessors since 1974.
