From the documentation :

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TabLayout.Tab.html#setCustomView(android.view.View)

Set a custom view to be used for this tab. This overrides values set by setText(CharSequence) and setIcon(Drawable).

you will have to set the title values yourself

From your example:

public void setupTabLayout(TabLayout tabLayout) {
    tabLayout.setTabMode(TabLayout.MODE_SCROLLABLE);
    tabLayout.setTabGravity(TabLayout.GRAVITY_CENTER);
    tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(mViewpager);

    TextView tab = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.custom_tab, null);
    tab.setText("Library");
    tab.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, R.drawable.ic_tabbar_library, 0, 0);
    tabLayout.getTabAt(0).setCustomView(tab);
    //..
}

custom_tab.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/tab" />

Update

The api has changed to allow you to set a custom id so you don't have to set the text/drawable manually. It'll use the adapter's values.

If the provided view contains a TextView with an ID of text1 then that will be updated with the value given to setText(CharSequence). Similarly, if this layout contains an ImageView with ID icon then it will be updated with the value given to setIcon(Drawable).
