keyboard shortcut for collection/library filter?

I use filter-library quite often - possibly even more often than search for a specific paper. Is there a default keyboard shortcut for it? If not, is there a way I could set one for myself?

I have set this up for Mac with a single keystroke (⌥F) that was built in Keyboard Maestro for the following keystroke sequence:

1. ⌘⇧L (Focuses upon Library)
2. ⇧Tab (Selects the next item which is the Filter field)
3. ⌘A (Selects all text so any existing text can be immediately replaced)

Hope that helps.

Yes, Cmd/Ctrl-Shift-L + Shift-Tab gets you there.

Perfect. Thanks both of you.
