Does anyone have a recommendation which glue to use for a padding compound? (the glue used to stick a paper pad together)

Try rubber cement I think they still sell it at office supply stores. If all else fails, I would get a heavy duty stapler and book binding tape. Staple the sheets of the pad together then seal the edges with book binding tape.
I make paper pads from scrap paper quite often. I have used rubber cement, hot glue and white glue. They all work more or less. I like the white glue best. Use binder clips side by side to hold your paper tightly together, then spread on the glue with your finger. Make sure it covers the entire top of the pad. When it's dry, remove the binder clips.
If you choose to staple the top, perforate the pad about a half inch from the top buy running a few sheets at a time through your sewing machine using an unthreaded needle (an old one). Sheet will tear off easily.
