Question When New filters are available do we need to download manually and somehow add them to the library?

Need to? You don't need to do anything if newly-submitted filters look unattractive. If you do like a filter and want to render it, just open its web page and click "Open this filter in Filter Forge".

When the file is downloaded does it add it to the library folder?

The filter file goes to the Library folder and its metadata added to Librarystructure.xml.

I checked and Yes they did go into the /Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Filter Forge 6/System/Library/
I checked the /Applications/Filter Forge Librarian 6/Library/Library/ nothing
I checked /Applications/Filter Forge 6/Resources/System/Library/ nothing

So As I see Filter Forge Librarian 6 does not reflect from the download link.

You didn't say anything about Librarian. Librarian database is not meant to be updated. Please check this page:

It's a backup! It's not meant to be updated. You just need to put is aside in a safe place in case your computer crashes.

So it's a one shot deal... it's archived Backup..
Hmmmm... Wow Could have just used Librarian download all and then use time machine for backup..

Backup was a waist for me.. "One shot deal"

Thank you for your time on this matter...
