Do you use the flatpak version on Linux? I'm a bit of a noob but I think due to flatpak sandboxing it can't access your home folder or something, so I had this problem where it could only access my /media/ external HDD.
Aside from that, I just make folders named something unambiguous like "jellyfin documentaries", make a jellyfin directory from the control panel, name it something like "documentaries" link the two and then add the documentaries and then scan the libraries. (i may have misunderstood your question lol sry, English is my 2nd Lang)
