Apple doesn’t like its novice or intermediate users tampering with its internal operating system libraries and files and, hence the library folder is hidden by default. However, experts can enable their privileges to access this folder and work around with development and debugging their programs. Library folders in Mac OS can be accessed through two simple methods. Here’s how to access the library folders in Mac OS.
How to 'Access Library Folders' via Finder
Step 1
Open ‘Finder’
Click ‘Finder’ from the dock of your Mac. The finder window will appear on your desktop.
Step 2
Go to ‘Library Folder’
From the menu bar, select the ‘Go’ menu and then select ‘Go to Folder’. Enter '~/Library’ and then click ‘Go’. The Library folder will be displayed in the window.
How to 'Access Library Folder' Via Go Menu
