Install the font on your operating system by whatever means it uses. Then close and restart LibreOffice and it should pick up the new font(s).

and if Libre Office does NOT pick up the new fonts?
Here's what LIbreOffice 6.1 sees of my 100+ fonts: 8 or so fonts total. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3tWz...
permission problem! fonts will show up in LibreWriter if permissions on the newly created folders are changed:
# change permissions:
chmod -R ugo+rx /usr/share/fonts/
# now run this:
# build font information cache files
fc-cache -f /usr/share/fonts/

Your question has nothing to do with LibreOffice because LibreOffice simply picks fonts installed system-wide, see robbleyd's answer.
