The current Canon of scripture for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints includes the following:
King James version of the Bible with JST and added footnotes.
The Book of Mormon
The Doctrine and Covenants
The Pearl of Great Price
The book of Hymns
All General Conference talks
The most recent issue of the Ensign.
Your individual Patriarchal Blessing

One unofficial exception is the Songs of Solomon which our leaders have declared as not scripture. For something to be officially added to or removed from the Canon requires a vote by the governing body of the church. That would be either the First Presidency or the Quorum of the Apostles. Historically these two groups of equal power have never been at odds about anything.

As for the other books known as the Apocrypha, we are told to read them if we have spiritually progressed enough to discern truth from error without the guidance of almost 200 years of others commenting on them. This forum is a good place to study each lost book and discuss the ideas presented therein.
