+## Saving Custom Filters
+
+The bookshelf page allows you to save custom filter presets for quick access.
+
+### How to Save a Filter
+
+1. Navigate to the **All Books** page
+2. Set your desired filters (genre, author, series, etc.)
+3. Click the **💾 Save Filter** button
+4. Enter a name for your filter (e.g., "My Sci-Fi Books")
+5. Click **Save**
+
+### Loading Saved Filters
+
+After saving filters, you can quickly load them from the saved filters dropdown (feature coming soon). For now, saved filters persist across page refreshes.
+
+### Filter Privacy
+
+Saved filters are **private to your account**. Other users cannot see or modify your filters.
