I have added two books to LibraryThing, waited, and they do not seem to be showing in TC.

Please tell us which books and when you entered them.

>1 Kinyon_Library: Hi there! I'm sorry for the trouble. I see the two most recently added books in your TinyCat here: https://www.librarycat.org/lib/Kinyon_Library/search/collection/709551?sort=acqu.... Are you seeing them there?

If not, please let me know which browser you're using. If so, I apologize that there must have been a delay on the back end but am glad they've come through at last.

I see them now. Thank you. It was several hours before they appeared. I noticed the count for results was accurate, but the book did not display for several hours, and after I posted here.

>4 Kinyon_Library: I'm very glad you said something! I reported the delay to our developers, as it definitely isn't the norm. Thank you!

Hi, I've been experiencing this same issue (even tonight...what could be better than cataloging on a Saturday night lol!) A batch I processed some days ago took a while but eventually arrived on TinyCat, and the few I've processed tonight aren't showing up in TinyCat (no problem with LibraryThing). Not a crisis, just a heads-up.

>6 UU-ShelterRock: I'm so sorry for the trouble — what were some of the books that you had added which weren't showing up?
Is this a good example: https://www.librarything.com/work/844275/book/318735973 ?
You were entering them into LibraryThing around 8 or 9 PM (Eastern USA time) and they weren't showing up in TinyCat until later–does that sound right?

Once I have more details I can build a report for our developers. Thank you for your help!

>7 ZephCraven: Yup that sounds right! The time delay seems to be shrinking with each passing day. The issue started around July 18th or perhaps the 17th. Hope this helps, and let me know if you need any more info!

>8 UU-ShelterRock: Hi again, thanks for this update! It seems from our data (gathered since this past Monday, July 20) that the issue is resolved for now. But we're keeping our eye on the incoming data. That said, let me know if you notice any super slow (8+ minutes) item syncing in TinyCat after adding in LibraryThing. Really appreciate your help so far!
