We met with Mary from Follett at the start of the year and she explained that due to Covid the publishing industry is very backed up right now. They are having a very hard time getting the actual books. She suggested placing orders of smaller quantities of books, and just a few of one title if you need multiples as smaller orders will be filled first.

I am in the same situation. I am also looking for a vendor that has books in stock and can get them out in a timely manner. 
Thank you.

Hi everyone,
I am very frustrated with the delays I am experiencing with Follett. Can you kindly recommend book vendors who offer processing and get orders in your library quickly?  I need the processing because I do have any clerical help and our district is not allowing volunteers.  I am happy to catalogue, cover, and label the occasional title but I cannot manage large orders in a timely fashion.  We are CLC members.  Thanks in advance!
Allison
