Describe the Bug

When the interface is right to left, the navigation buttons that can be used to surf pages are misplaced. They should be swapped.

Steps to Reproduce

Go to the user settings and change the UI language to a RTL one; such as Persian.
Go the shelves.
Scroll down to see the navigation buttons.
They are misplaced and they should be on the right side.

Expected Behaviour

The buttons block should be placed on right, not left; since the interface is right to left.
Another problem is the way the left and right buttons are placed. They should be swapped.
