You don't make columns for icons, instead you put icons on columns.

I suggest that you play with icon rules to see what they can do. Go to Preferences / Look and feel / Column icons. Try making a rule that puts an "icon with text" on Title if the Authors column "has pattern". Put the letter a into the values box. Calibre will display the icon on the title if the author's name(s) contain the letter a. You just as easily could add an icon if your #tab column is set. Or what-have-you.

You probably need to get some icons. Try http://findicons.com/search/download and download a few that strike your fancy. Get ones with a size of 128 or bigger and in PNG or JPG format. Then when in Preferences / Look and feel / Column icons, add these downloaded files to the icons you can use.

Once you have played, you will have a much better idea of what you want in the end, and you might even have accomplished it. If not, with that specific information we will be in a much better position to help.
