It’s inconvenient to have to navigate back to My Library every time I want to search across my entire library, especially when I have a large number of collections. Is there a way to search the whole library regardless of which collection I’m currently viewing?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking for. Searching is now easier than ever:
- Simple search works just as it always has (by "Title, Creator, Year", etc.). Yes, of course, now you have the option to select one or more collections to search in. Otherwise it works as always in all your Library. No change there.
- Advanced search has been simplified and is now more powerful, with more filtering options.

I guess you could make a saved search for it, choosing any item option, and then search normally within that collection. Saved searches can be opened as a new tab of sorts now in Zotero 10.
