There must be others, too, but those are the ones that come to my mind. There are errors in the International ones, but they do serve as a great starting off point.
The biggest problem I have found with the International series is that many of them are now unavailable due to copyright problems.
If you are looking for excerpt books, David Hickman has a superb set out (longer excerpts than most books, very neatly set out, great stuff) which can be ordered from www.hickmanmusiceditions.com - well worth checking out (as are the rest of the pieces on that website).
