In my content library I have a folder selected.  In my scene I have a hair model with a new IRAY shader I made.  I want to save this new hair iray material into the selected content folder.  How do I do that?

    Save-->Material preset

    It mighe need some manual navigation to get to the folder path that you want to save the item in. By default, the presets get saved in your personal Preset folder.

    I figured it out. You have to do FILE---> SAVE AS MATERIAL PRESET while your hair, prop or whatever figure is selected.  I have to manually navigate to the folder I want to save it.

    Alternatively, click on the "+" button at the bottom of the Content Library tab and select "Material Preset". This has the advantage of not needing to remember a manual navigation sequence, since the preset goes into whichever content folder you're looking at. You can either use an existing folder, or create a new one if you want to have a separate folder for settings you've saved.
