Occasionally, the FOLIO tenant locale on a public reference environment has its tenant-level localization changed from American English. This is because FOLIO is an international project and it is not always clear to libraries who are just starting with FOLIO how to navigate tenant and login-specific locale settings.

If you can't read the language, then you have to navigate based off of the icons. Here is how you can do it, with the FOLIO tenant language set to French as the example.

  1. Find the Settings app from the Applications menu. The Applications menu icon will look like four squares stacked together. The Settings icon will look like a white bolt on a black background



  2. From the Settings app, you need to locate the Tenant settings. The icon for Tenant will be a black box.



  3. From Settings > Tenant, you need to figure out which option in General is "Language and Localization". There are no icons to follow, but General will always be first, and there are five options listed, so you can page through until you find the option that looks like Language and Localization settings. The first drop-down will be for the language. 

  4. Click the language drop down and switch it back to American English. Then click the blue botton at the bottom to save your changes. This will switch it back to English.
