× I don't go to library because books are available online.
✓ I don't go to the library because books are available online.
The noun 'library' is a singular, countable noun and requires the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific place known to both speaker and listener. Omitting 'the' here is incorrect.
× So what I do is that I will just buy books online and then just read them through my phone or my laptop, which should make this convenient for me.
✓ So what I do is that I just buy books online and then read them through my phone or my laptop, which makes this convenient for me.
Using 'will' in this context is unnecessary because the speaker is describing a habitual action, not a future event. Also, 'should make' is better replaced with 'makes' to indicate a general truth or habitual convenience.
× I usually read books in the library which are not available outside.
✓ I usually read books in the library which are not available elsewhere.
The phrase 'not available outside' is vague and awkward. 'Elsewhere' is a better choice to indicate places other than the library. However, this is more about word choice than a strict grammar error, so this correction is optional.
× For example the nursing books. Those books are available outside but it cost a lot which make it convenient for me to to read them inside the book because.
✓ For example, the nursing books. Those books are available outside but they cost a lot, which makes it convenient for me to read them inside the library.
The pronoun 'it' should be 'they' to agree with the plural noun 'books'. Also, 'cost' should be 'cost' (present tense plural) and 'make' should be 'makes' to agree with the singular subject 'which' referring to the situation. The phrase 'inside the book' is incorrect; it should be 'inside the library'. The sentence is also incomplete and awkward, so it has been rephrased for clarity.
× When I was a kid I don't go to library because I was not interested to read books and up until now I I'm still not interested to read books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
✓ When I was a kid, I didn't go to the library because I was not interested in reading books, and up until now, I'm still not interested in reading books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
The verb tense should be past tense 'didn't go' to match 'when I was a kid'. Also, 'go to library' needs the article 'the'. The phrase 'interested to read' is incorrect; the correct form is 'interested in reading'. Commas are added for clarity.
× When I was a kid I don't go to library because I was not interested to read books and up until now I I'm still not interested to read books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
✓ When I was a kid, I didn't go to the library because I was not interested in reading books, and up until now, I'm still not interested in reading books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
The phrase 'go to library' requires the definite article 'the' before 'library' because it is a specific place. This is a common article error.
× I was not interested to read books and up until now I I'm still not interested to read books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
✓ I was not interested in reading books and up until now I'm still not interested in reading books, but I try to read at least once a week to improve my English.
The correct preposition after 'interested' is 'in', and the verb should be in the gerund form 'reading' rather than the infinitive 'to read'.
× I don't have any idea for Chinese kids if they go to libraries because I never encounter people like them up until now.
✓ I don't have any idea whether Chinese kids go to libraries because I have never encountered people like them up until now.
The phrase 'I don't have any idea for Chinese kids if they go to libraries' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'I don't have any idea whether Chinese kids go to libraries'. Also, 'encounter' should be in the present perfect 'have never encountered' to indicate experience up to now.
