Kia ora! To say "there is none" you can use "kāore he" e.g. "kāore he motokā" means "there are no cars". Then you could add on "I te whare motokā" (at the garage) or "kei roto i te whare motokā" (IN the garage) But for the bread example, I'd use a stative "kua pau te parāoa" which most closely translates to "the bread has run out", I feel this would be more common in this scenario. Then add on "kei te toa" for "at the shop" For the books, you could use either or, depending on the context "kāore he pukapuka i te whare pukapuka" or "Kua riro ngā pukapuka kei te whare pukapuka" (the books at the library have been taken/are gone)
