hypershade and the "Shader Library"

Hello. I am on section 19 of "car Modeling" 3 DVD set by Kurt Boutilier.

I am using Maya 8.5 on a Precision 690, 2 MB Ram,

OS: Windows XP Pro

Kurt is using an earlier Maya version. His Hypershade has a Shader Library in the work area of his hypershade. Mine doesn't. I have copied the shader library in to my program files, but want to know if there is a way to create a shader library in my hypershade like he has?

I can create the tab, "Shader Library" but it isn't a shader library as his is.

Was the library faeture of the hypershade a feature on earlier Maya versions? Is there a way to retro fit my hypershade work area to have a shader library?

Any help as always is gratefully appreciated.

Tristan
