If you drag the width of the right pane to just larger than the  
previewed documents, you'll get a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom  
of the pane that allows you to center the previews in the pane. As you  
move around the reference list, the position of this scroll bar is  
preserved so that the documents remain centered and you get a fairly  
compact display. If you close and re-open the library, the size of the  
previews and the width of the right pane will be the same as you left  
it, but the scroll bar will be at one extreme (I don't remember which  
side it goes to), so that only part of the previews show in the pane  
and you have to scroll to center them. If the position of the scroll  
bar was preserved along with the preview size and the width of the  
right pane, you could just set it and forget it for each library.
