✓ I frequently visit the library near our home to study or to read books which are not available online, and in addition, it provides services like digital media as well as seminars hosted by it.
The pronoun 'them' incorrectly refers to 'seminars' which cannot host themselves. The correct pronoun is 'it' referring to the library, which hosts the seminars.
× I like to attend these seminars and I enjoy boring books more than buying them.
✓ I like to attend these seminars and I enjoy borrowing books more than buying them.
The word 'boring' is an adjective meaning 'not interesting', but the intended meaning is 'borrowing' which is the act of taking books temporarily. This is a common confusion between similar sounding words.
× I usually go to the library to study there it helps me to meet with my study groups so that we can collaborate on group projects.
✓ I usually go to the library to study because it helps me meet with my study groups so that we can collaborate on group projects.
The original sentence is a run-on sentence lacking proper conjunction or punctuation. Adding 'because' clarifies the relationship between the clauses and improves sentence structure.
× I find it way easier to focus on my assignments as well and overall it is my go to place.
✓ I find it way easier to focus on my assignments as well and overall it is my go-to place.
The phrase 'go to place' should be hyphenated as 'go-to place' when used as a compound adjective meaning a preferred place.
× Yes, I often visited the library as a kid with my parents during the weekend.
✓ Yes, I often visited the library as a kid with my parents during weekends.
The phrase 'during the weekend' is less common when referring to habitual actions; 'during weekends' or 'on weekends' is preferred for repeated events.

✓ As far as my opinion is concerned, I do not think that all Chinese kids like to go to the library because they have access to online articles or ebooks.
The definite article 'the' before 'online articles or ebooks' is unnecessary because these are general items, not specific ones.
× Now with the advent of technology, however, because of some research work, they need to visit it sometimes.
✓ Now, with the advent of technology, however, they need to visit it sometimes because of some research work.
