If you're interested only in awards from the communist period, there are only three books with information about them:
1. K. G. Klietmann: Phaleristik Rumänien [Romanian Phaleristics] Berlin 1975 (ISBN 3 87778 4003) - in German and English
2. S. Catone, N. Şerbănescu, D. Bedivan: România - Decoraţii 1859-1991 [Romania - Decorations 1859-1991] Bucharest 1992 - only in Romanian
3. Schmitt, Rainer - "The Awards of the People's Republic and of the Socialist Republic of Romania 1948 until 1989" - in German

However, if you have any questions about Romanian awards, i will do my best to answer them. You can also visit our forum (in English):

Thanks Taz, you are well-informed as always. We hope the new association will be legally registered in about one month.

I also hope to expand the awards section on http://www.worldwar2.ro to cover all Romanian awards, from all periods. This should compensate for the lack of good information about Romanian ODM in English. The new association will also have a website with useful information.
