To set it up, go to Settings > Family and enable Family Library Sharing. Invite accounts via email to share your library on authorized devices. Remember, not all games support this feature, and you can't play simultaneously as the game owner. This provides a practical way to share games with family or friends while respecting Steam's policies.
