You can use the New Libraries option to add a new library and you can add the group of folders to the created new library, by this you can access multiple folders from one place. To create New Library:
  1. In an empty space right-click of mouse to open the shortcut menu.

  2. Navigate to New -> Library. Enter a name for your new Library.

  3. Once it is created, you can decide what you want to include in this newly created library. Just right-click and select Properties.

  4. Click the Add button and browse to a directory that you want included in this Library.
