EmuLibrary is an extension to treat one or more folders of ROMs/Disc images as a library from which you can "install" games. It can be useful if you have a large collection of emulated games and limited storage where you play them versus where you store them (HTPC vs. NAS, for example). It also is useful for keeping the list of emulated games up to date, and for being able to filter via installed/uninstalled.

Source
Settings page example is below. If "Games Use Folder" is checked, it expects each game is contained within a subfolder of the Source Path (such as for an m3u/cue/bin combination), versus individual files in the source (nes/smd/zip/etc.). You may need to expand the window when editing the settings until it's replaced with something better than a DataGrid.
Some of it is a bit hacky, but I've been slowly improving it. Some or all of its functionality may be obsolete when Playnite 9 is released. We'll see what happens. I created it for myself, but wanted to share in case its useful for anyone else.
