I haven't backed up my Firefox bookmarks since April 2011. After that date I updated Firefox from 4 to 5. I expected Firefox appearance to change, but it did not. I am using Windows XP. I am trying to access the Bookmarks Library so I can backup my bookmarks, then copy the updated bookmarks file to a thumb drive. I have tried view, sidebar, bookmarks to access bookmarks menu but cannot access library to organize bookmarks. Help!

{ Ctrl + Shft + B } to open the Library window from the keyboard.

There was no change to the User Interface between Firefox 4 and Firefox 5, it was basically a security update. The big change was between Firefox 3.6 and Firefox 4 - additional changes to the UI isn't going to happen any time soon.

How do I get to the library to organize bookmarks and back them up?

I just did some updating, and now when I click the bookmarks drop down menu, there is a "show all bookmarks" option that now seems to let me in to the library. I think I will now be able to perform my backup from there.
