What happened?

I created a new user with access to only one of my two libraries as the admin user. I then logged out and logged in as the new user to test the access restriction (it works). I then log out and log back in as admin.

Now I only have access to one library as admin. Refreshing fixes the issue.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the admin to have access to both libraries after logging back in.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Create two libraries.
Create a new user with access to only one of them.
Log in as the new user.
Click on the library tab.
Log out.
Log in as admin.
Click on library tab.
