I can’t speak on books specifically, but I work in a US office that’s had a lot of paper quality issues in our publishing department that sound similar. We can’t get the quality paper we need in the amount of stock we’re needing it for. And if the paper is in stock, it’s either above our budget or there’s another company with higher priority that’s getting first dibs on it. What we are able to publish doesn’t look as good as it used to from all the compromises. Friends in Canada have similar complaints on their paper and wood products.

Might be a universal paper industry thing at the moment.
