My Question or Issue

Hey there, welcome to the Spotify Community!

I can confirm that you can see all your albums in the albums section in your library already. There is no way to create a sub-section with Albums, Playlists, or Artists section but you can follow these steps to create a playlist version for your Albums:

1. Open your Desktop App.
2. Create a folder named Albums.
3. Open your Album and drag-drop it to the folder.
4. This will create an exact replica of that Album but as a playlist.

I hope that helps, feel free to ask for anything else.

If I do that, the playlist will contain all the cuts from all the albums.
Then I'll have to cull the cuts I don't want. It would be easier to start a
new playlist, open each album individually, and move what I want to the new
playlist.

Thanks for getting back to me. And yes, you can do that for more personalization because being a playlist it gives you more room for it.

It would be easier still to create a subcategory in the Library. I could
put all the Christmas albums in that and not have to hunt through the
entire bunch of albums.

I agree but here is another solution. You can simply create a genre-wise playlist or Christmas playlist as you mentioned and you can sort the playlist by Album which will group tracks from the same Album together.

I know this is not the ideal solution you were hoping for, but feel free to create an idea for the same feature suggestion here.

Let me know if you need anything else. Happy to assist!
