Hello there, mrscp.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up how to show the sidebar feature:
iTunes 11: Frequently used features

Show or hide the Status Bar and Sidebar
In iTunes 11 you have the option to turn the Sidebar and the Status Bar on or off; they are off by default. To do this in the menus, go to:
- Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
- Show Status Bar - Choose View > Show Status Bar (this feature will conveniently display the number of items and playback time for a category, for example, music or movies).
If your issue is that you're not seeing Home Sharing in your sidebar then this article helps with troubleshooting:

Cheers,
