No, I didn't often go to the library when I was a kid. Back then, because my home style wasn't very well developed. The nearest library was quite far in the city, so it was difficult for me to visit it regularly. Because of this, I usually read books at home instead.

× Oh no, I'm not the kind of person that's very fond of the library.
✓ Oh no, I'm not the kind of person who is very fond of the library.
The relative pronoun 'that' is incorrectly used to refer to a person. 'Who' should be used instead when referring to people.
× I only go to the library with my friends when they invite me so that I will join them to buy some stuff they like.
✓ I only go to the library with my friends when they invite me so that I can join them to buy some stuff they like.
The modal verb 'will' is incorrectly used to express ability or possibility in this context. 'Can' is the correct modal verb to indicate ability or permission.
× I never buy something from the library as well.
✓ I never buy anything from the library either.
'Something' is used in affirmative sentences, but in negative sentences 'anything' is appropriate. Also, 'as well' is better replaced by 'either' in negative contexts.
× Actually, I don't usually go to the library because I prefer buying online stuff.
✓ Actually, I usually don't go to the library because I prefer buying online stuff.
The adverb 'usually' is better placed before the main verb 'go' to correctly modify the verb phrase.
× I rarely go to the library or occasionally I only go with friends when they invite me, so I will study together there.
✓ I rarely go to the library; occasionally, I only go with friends when they invite me, so we can study together there.
The conjunction 'or' is incorrectly used to connect two clauses that are not alternatives. A semicolon or period is better. Also, 'I will study' should be 'we can study' to reflect joint action and correct modal usage.

The preposition 'in' is incorrect here; 'far from' is the correct phrase to indicate distance.
