Why would you add 'le' before a verb..
for example "yo le estoy dando un libro....." versus just "yo estoy dando un libro.."
I'm confused as to when to use the LE and the SE

In your example, "le" indicates who you are giving the book to.
"Yo le estoy dando un libro" means "I am giving a book to HIM or HER or YOU".
If you just say, "Yo estoy dando un libro", it means "I am giving a book". This sentence is as awkward and incomple in Spanish as it it in English.

si dices: "yo LE estoy dando un libro" estás hablando de "él, ella, ellos, ellas o usted" "yo le estoy dando un libro ( a ella)" por ejemplo.
Yo TE estoy dando un libro ( a tí)
