Hi, I'm new to map editing and I am trying to find out how to makes tomes automaticly be used as soon as you buy them. (Even when you have a full inventory) If anyone can please help me out it would truely be appreciated.

It isn't very simple. I could help you but I don't feel like opening the editor ATM. Someone else will probably answer you soon.

Anyhow, it works by triggers, like this:
Event:
Hero gets a "bla bla bla tome"
Action:
Use "bla bla bla tome"

Something like that. Anyhow, that is reeeaalllyyyy not what the triggers look like.

Dead-Inside, wouldn't the triggers that you propose require that the hero have an open slot in his inventory?

A different solution would be to have the building have an ability which has the tome as an icon. The ability costs money to activate and has the cooldown of the tome, and when activated gives the activating player's hero the stats change.

It involves triggers and doesn't actually use an item, and you wouldn't need an open slot.
