You might want to look into restricting your library. In the attached image you can see that I have 12522 books in this library, but in the Restrict to box I have restricted the GUI to a saved search called classics. While this restriction is in place the GUI will pretend that I have a library of just 461 books. You can easily switch from one restricted search to another, effectively limiting the books you are dealing with at any one time.

You'll notice that even the tag browser on the left reflects this restriction and limits what it shows to authors, series, tags etc that are part of this restricted search.
