Go to first/last record
I have a shamefully large eBook collection and occasionally need to go to the first or last book in the database. I know, a trivial thing, but... shamefully large number of books to wade through to scroll to the top or bottom.

Is there a plugin? or some other means to easily do this?

TIA

ctrl+home and ctrl+end work for me.

ctrl+End and ctrl+home or something like that.
I have a TKL-60 keyboard so it’s a bit different

If you're in grid view, you can use home and end without the ctrl modifier.

On a Mac, that's command-home and command-end. And OP, thanks for asking this question, it's bothered me but I've never taken the time to find the answer.

I feel like I should just say "duh" - Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End are Microsoft things I should have tried. Thanks to all who replied.
