Separate language menu
In August release 2018, there is finally a good improvement in the sign in area, but unfortunately the language selection is now inside a personal menu. If guests user enters Primo which by default is not in his native language, they wouldn't know what to do. There is a nice solution created by Manneheim University, and I hope Exlibris will take it as an example:

Code of the central customization package in our consortium:
https://github.com/Swiss-Library-Service-Platform/central-customization-package/tree/main/41SLSP_NETWORK-CENTRAL_PACKAGECSS for making the frame around the active language brighter (with 'Inherit from central package' checked):
bcu-lang-switch-component .md-button.md-lang-button.active {
border-color: rgba(27, 31, 35, 0.15);

Elegant way of showing which language is selected at the moment.

We haven't set up external users yet (soon I hope), so our ESL students have no way to change the language on PRIMO

Separate language menu

It is very important to have the language icon separate and not hidden. Many of users are guests and need to change language interface.
