 Course of study

As a musically proficient (degreed) elder adult who is on the learning path with oboe, with goals of a) playing in a woodwind quintet, and b) in a community orchestra or band, I'm wondering what courses of study (books) are recommended.

I was given Barrett when I took three years of lessons from an excellent teacher who has since moved away, and I had to deal with some major health issues in the last decade, but am once again making the effort. I'm up to #13 in Barrett and wondering if I get through this book and can play its contents competently, is there anything else I actually need? From my years as a pro violinist I am a good sight reader, and from here it appears that what I basically need is a structured approach to "all the necessary technique to play at the level I want to." Is Barrett enough? I have no desire to be a soloist (been there done that,) and in larger groups I prefer the support parts as opposed to the solo parts.
