You can specify which domain for the path to command.

set UniversalScriptsFldr to (((path to library folder from system domain
as alias) as text) & "Scripts:") as alias

--Classic domain
--local domain
--network domain
--system domain
--user domain


How about something like this:

set UniversalScriptsFldr to ((path to library folder as text from user
domain) & "Scripts:Universal Scripts:") as alias


tell application "Finder"
activate
set windowList to name of every window
delay # one second
choose from list windowList
if windowList contains "Universal Scripts:" then
tell application "Finder" to close window "Universal Scripts:"
else
open (folder UniversalScriptsFldr)
end if
end tell
