I've been looking everywhere after i rented an oboe, but I can't find anything. Also, any good websites for tips on the oboe?

A modern oboe is non-transposing - that is, it's in C.

The oboe is in concert key, also know as the key of C. Therefore, the note that is being read is also the pitch that is sounded by the oboe.

Oboe is in the key of C, just like a flute, piccolo, and piano.
