If you want a copy of free scales, try the ones listed right here in this BBS. Suggested fingerings and the modal scales are included. Just follow the copyright rules, please.
For published scales, Albert's book is great. For excellent foundation scales work, try Hite's edition of Baermann III. The Langenus series are good all around skill builder books for established beginners and intermediate wannabes. If you want the standard classroom fare with an embedded lesson plan, Rubank's series can't be beat. I've heard countless times that the Rose studies book is an essential part of any clarinetist's collection. I'd reserve the Klose' book for later, when a good solid foundation of skills and confidence is built up.
I have all of these books in my small collection, plus many others like them. At my present rate of practice, I have several decades of work in front of me. That's okay, because I'm like a kid in a candy shop. What a delicious variety! I'll take some double rich chocolate (Klose'), some peppermint (Cavallini), and some butterscotch (Langenus)...
