The following is a posting I captured last year, by Edward Berard. 
Perhaps it could be the start of a FAQ on OO References?

		Readings In Object-Oriented Technology
		      (Updated October 26, 1991)

			by Edward V. Berard
		  Berard Software Engineering, Inc.

If you are interested in reading about any rapidly evolving technology,
it is best to keep the following in mind:

	- Read more than one source. Look for sources which have
	  different, and possibly conflicting, views of the material. It
	  is often difficult to determine fundamental facts when only one
	  viewpoint is present.

	- Very often, authors confuse concepts with implementations.
	  Ask yourself if the author is discussing a concept, or a
	  particular implementation of the concept.

	- Always be on the lookout for new sources. In the software 
  	  technology arena in particular, significant changes can
	  take place in less than a month.

	- Take care to distinguish between differing viewpoints and
	  conflicting viewpoints.

There are many topic areas in object-oriented software technology, and
literally thousands of books, articles, tutorials, and proceedings
devoted, in whole, or in part, to object-oriented software concepts.
What we will present here is some of the representative reading
material. Just because an item is included in this reading list does
not mean that it is recommended without qualifications, nor does it
mean that it is an authoritative source on a topic. However, the
material listed here is intended to help you understand more about the
technology.

			Object-Oriented Programming

Object-oriented programming books most often tend to focus on
programming language aspects of object-oriented technology. However,
many fundamental concepts can be found in the books mentioned below:

[Cox, 1986]. B.J. Cox, Object Oriented Programming: An Evolutionary
Approach, Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1986.

[Goldberg and Robson, 1983]. A. Goldberg and D. Robson, Smalltalk-80:
The Language and Its Implementation, Addison-Wesley, Reading,
Massachusetts, 1983.

Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1989.

[Stroustrup, 1991]. B. Stroustrup, The C++ Programming Language, Second
Edition, Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1991.

			Object-Oriented Requirements Analysis

There are a number of publicly available courses on object-oriented
requirements analysis. Since the technology is still new, these courses
present many differing viewpoints and approaches. There are, however, a
number of references on the topic:

[Anderson et al, 1989]. J.A. Anderson, J. McDonald, L. Holland, and E.
Scranage, "Automated Object-Oriented Requirements Analysis and Design,"

			Object-Oriented Design/Development

Most of the work which has been done in the area of object-oriented
life-cycle issues, outside of object-oriented programming, has been
accomplished within the Ada community. Some representative sources on
OOD are:

[Abbott, 1983]. R.J. Abbott, "Program Design by Informal English

In addition to the above references, the September 1990 issue of the
Communications of the ACM (Vol. 33, No. 9) contains quite a few
articles on object-oriented design approaches.

			Object-Oriented Databases

Object-oriented databases are not the same thing as relational
databases. In effect, object-oriented database technology today is at
the same point relational database technology was in the early 1980s.
(I know more than a few vendors who would disagree with this point.)
Some representative information on the subject can be found in:

articles on object-oriented databases.

			Object-Oriented Computer Hardware

Even computer hardware can be constructed in an object-oriented manner.
Here are three references:

			Object-Oriented Metrics

As organizations begin shifting to object-oriented approaches, they find
that some of the ways in which they used to measure things are less
appropriate. People have already begun asking about object-oriented
metrics. Although most work in this area is relatively new, there are a
growing number of references, including:
