And I use the free/ shareware (remember that term!) app TinkerTool to
set a bunch of settings like this.
Not sure if it's available for Mavericks yet.

Hi Mavericks "adoptees",
Mavericks hides the user Library folder ( ~/Library) by default, just
as Lion and Mountain Lion do.
You can open it easily enough by holding down *Option *while choosing
Library from the Finder's*Go* menu, or you can use*Terminal.app
*and**type the command "chflags nohidden ~/Library" (without the
quotes) and hit*Enter* and your User Library shows in Finder.
Mavericks introduces an easier way to make the user Library folder
visible all the time---no more fiddling in Terminal.
All you need to do is* open your Home Folder in its own window*,
choose*View > Show View Options*, and select the "*Show Library
Folder" *checkbox.
I would imagine Mavericks will behave the same way Mountain Lion &
Lion do; so ever time an update appears (10.9.1 or 10.9.2), the User
Library will be re-hidden and you'll have to repeat this procedure...
but it will be much quicker than having to go into Terminal every time
after each update to the OS to have ~/Library folder visible all the time.
Cheers,
