iTUNES library sharing

We put all of our CDs onto iTunes on my husband's PC. I'd like to have them on my Macbook Air. We set up family sharing on both the PC and the Mac, but his iTunes library does not show up in my Mac. Can anyone help?

Caroneal,


Family Sharing enables the sharing of content purchased from Apple. It does not enable the sharing of other library content. See more details in here:

What types of content can I share with my family using purchase sharing?

Why not just copy the files across, using a flash drive, and add them to your own iTunes library?
