In the library is where you see all of your purchased games show up, if you prefer not to need the steam window open to browse your games you can create shortcuts to the desktop just like normal CD games.

Yes it supports LAN, you can log in in offline mode. No, the servers and server browsing are specific to the games, not steam itself, all the games have a community that host servers anyway.

To see all the free-to-play games go to www.steampowered.com and in the genre tab, free-to-play is its own genre.
I don't have Steam installed right now, but I'd wager Nova doesn't participate in a whole lot of the sales, eh?
