Missing photos - Linked to old photo library?

I was looking for older photos on my iMac and found an "iPhoto Library" in Finder. I clicked on it, and now I only have photos from 2015 and before!! How do I get back to a complete photo library?

Other devices still have current photos.

You can switch libraries by holding the option key when launching Photos.

You can also simply quit Photos, if it is running, then go to your Pictures folder or wherever you are keeping your Photos Libraries and double click the library you want to open in Photos.
