To set up Family Library Sharing on Steam, first, log into your Steam account and head to the top-left where you'll see 'Steam' > 'Settings' (or 'Preferences' on Mac). Click on the 'Family' tab and you'll spot the 'Family Library Sharing' section. Select 'Authorize This Computer' and choose the accounts you want to share with. Remember, both you and your friend/family member need to authorize each other's computers for full access!

Just a quick add: Make sure you and whoever you're sharing with have Steam Guard security enabled. It's a must for family sharing!
