All,
Please see below from Mike Gooding at Baker & Taylor, subject, B&T response to shipping delays. If you have ever worked with Mike he will tell you his style is "straight up, tell it like it is."
I believe you will agree with his self-assessment when you read the below:

The warehouse was projected to be caught up by now, but we are still not there. It is Covid related.
Books with no processing go out the door within a day. Processing is delayed and I intercede where I can. I have heard both good and bad about all of the suppliers.
I can only tell you that we are getting closer, but I quit promising since I have always been wrong so far
