× I mean like people in the library studies and read books.
✓ I mean like people in the library study and read books.
The subject 'people' is plural, so the verb should be in the base form 'study' instead of 'studies'. This is a subject-verb agreement issue related to singular and plural forms.
× It makes me keep motivated so that helps me study more.
✓ It keeps me motivated so that helps me study more.
The phrase 'makes me keep motivated' is awkward and incorrect. The correct expression is 'keeps me motivated' where 'motivated' is an adjective describing the state. Using 'keep' here is unnecessary and incorrect.
× The library is the best place to concentrate on study or to read books.
✓ The library is the best place to concentrate on studying or to read books.
The verb 'concentrate' is followed by the preposition 'on' and then a gerund form. Therefore, 'study' should be changed to 'studying' to be grammatically correct.

✓ I think most of the Chinese children go to the library often these days because their parents encourage them to go to the library and read books to make them more intellectual and emotional.
The words 'intellectually' and 'emotionally' are adverbs, but here adjectives 'intellectual' and 'emotional' are needed to describe 'them'. Using adverbs in this context is incorrect.
