Navigating the MR Library?

So how do you find books in the MR library? I'm talking about just browsing, not looking for a specific book.

I'm new to using it, but it seems pretty unwieldy to me. AFAIK, there are only two ways to dive in: 1) You start at the top (most recent) point in a forum and scroll your way back in time; 2) You search for specific key words and hope you hit paydirt.

It seems to me that the best of both worlds would be to combine the wiki with the library. There could be various directory pages established on the wiki: by author, genre, etcetera. These directory pages could then link to the appropriate forum post.

Of course a simpler version would be to upload directly to the wiki, but I'm assuming that there is some reason that uploading to the forum is better?

On the other hand, I'm also open to thoughts from others on the best way to browse for books.
