I like to have some tabs open at the same time. Then I have some items in the toolbar that a sometimes need to open. I would like them to automatically open in a new tab without closing any tabs I already have open. Can this be done? I know if I right click on the toolbar item then choose open in a new tab it works. ??

I do not know of any way to specify only some bookmarks to open in a new tab. You could middle-click on a bookmark to make it open in a new tab.

There are add-ons that can make all bookmarks open in a new tab, such as:

All but the first of those will add many other tab browsing features. There will be other tabbed related add-ons that can open all bookmarks in a new tab, you can find them by searching https://addons.mozilla.org/
