@Julse00 After に, 「来たの」is omitted. So the original sentence is 「今日も本を借りに来たの?」
「〜に来る」is “To come to 〜.

る become に because there will be the verb after 借りる(to borrow).
So just 借り doesn't make any sence.
For example
見に行く (見る+行く)
作りに行く (作る+行く)

We usually distinguish the meaning by context, so when there is only one sentence and no context, we can't guess it with accuracy.
It would go
今日も 本を借り(るため)に(どこかへ行くのですか)?
今日も(ここで)本を借り(るため)に(ここへ来たのですか)?
