A number of users have been having trouble with LT imports lately. I tried testing an import using the ISBN included in the Sample Import CSV file, and my import has been delayed for many hours. Unsure whether this is an issue related to the sources, or if it is something else.
To replicate it:
1. Log into LibraryThing. Go to the Universal Import page: https://www.librarything.com/import
2. Paste the ISBN 0805061762 into the Paste Text Import box. Click "Grab". (this is the ISBN that is included in the sample import file)
3. Choose the Default sources: Amazon.com Books, Overcat, and Library of Congress
4. Click Import books.
After that, the lookup queue seems to stall for a very long time (many hours... indefinitely? idk)
The message in the lookup queue:
"You have 1 ISBNs in your lookup queue, including 0 failed and 1 active. (clear queue)
Finishing estimate: between 10 minutes and 20 minutes.
ISBN: 0805061762, will try Amazon.com books"

I'm going to close this out as temporary import issues with our imports, but please start a new report if needed.
