Luke, you can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and together, we can rule the galaxy as father and son! Come with me. It is the only way.
Depends on what you want access to more. Volo's Guide will get you access to a few more races options and some monsters, Xanathar's Guide will get you some fun class options, and Mordenkainen's Tome is full of fun monster options.

I am a new-ish DM and have the 3 core rule books. What is the best one to get next?

Couldn't have said it better than @Metamongoose
Volo's if you want to expand player options and get some monsters
Xanathar's if you want some more classes
Mordenkainen's if you just want some really cool monsters
Xanathar's also has some more optional rules and tools for both players and DMs.
Volo's and Mordenkainen's have monster stats and lore.
The SCAG has setting lore.
I recommend XGtE. Between the extra spells and classes and the optional and expanded rules, it is my favorite book.
Thanks guys, that’s all I needed!
