What are the only constellations visible all year long?
The region of the sky visible all year round is called "circumpolar". What stars and constellations are included there depends on your geographical location. For example, for somebody living 30 degrees south of the equator, a region around the south pole of the sky, with a radius of 30 degrees, would be circumpolar.
Can same star constellations be seen from Europe and Australia?
Some of them, yes. Constellations along the Zodiac can be seen from either hemisphere, but constellations well away from the celesial equator cannot be seen very far in the other hemisphere. For example, Ursa Major is not visible in Australia, and the Southern Cross is not visible in Europe or North America. Most of the "official" constellations were named by northern hemisphere astronomers, or European navigators sailing in southern waters. Look at how many southern hemisphere constellations have a nautical theme; the Telescope, the Octant, the Quadrant. Even Cetus, the Whale, was named by sailors, not people who LIVED there.
Is Libra visible all year?
No. For the Sun to be "in" one of the constellations means that the constellation is BEHIND the Sun, and so invisible. Any constellation is, on average, visible for 9 months of the year, with the 3 months of non-visibility being centered on that constellation.
Why cannot see all constellations?
If you were on the Equator you would see all of them. Otherwise it depends where you live. I live in New Zealand at latitude 35° S. So I can't see any northern stars closer than 35° to the North Celestial Pole. If you live in the north at say 35°N, then you wouldn't see those stars which are closer than 35° to the South Celestial Pole.

Are all constellations visible all the time?
No. As we orbit the Sun different constellations become visible, but we can only see them when it is dark. Constellations are in the sky during daylight, but the Sun is so bright, we cannot see them. A few months after that, they start to be visible in the evenings and soon at night, by which time other constellations are in daylight and cannot be seen. You will see any constellation at the same time of year, every year. So the constellations you see in the night sky tonight are the same as the ones you will see on this date in any other year. The only thing that will differ is where the Moon and planets are.
