THE orchestral books to buy (I know of no others) is the Abe Torchinsky collection of tuba parts (NOT) excerpts. They are the real parts put in book-form. There are around 15 volumes, representing all the major composers and works for tuba. They are available in part (maybe all) through ENCORE Music publishers in Troy, Michigan. The official title is "The Tuba Player's Orchestral Repertoire", by Abe Torchinsky. These books aren't just good--They're Grreatt!!! Good luck!
