Is there a way to get the bookmarks toolbar to display when switching to full screen on a Mac?

When switching to full screen mode in Firefox 9 the bookmarks toolbar goes away. I can't find any view setting to keep it displayed. Is there a way?

Maybe use the Bookmarks sidebar instead (Command+B).

You can also add code to userChrome.css below the default @namespace line to display the Bookmarks Toolbar when you hover to the top of the window to unhide the toolbars and tab bar.
I don't know if that works on a Mac.

The customization files userChrome.css (interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder. 

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"] { visibility:visible!important; }
