Sometime ago, I created on French Wikipedia a "wikipedians per expertise domain" page (Wikipédiens par domaine de compétence [1]) that may fit your idea (actually 55 users listed). Personally I prefer this kind of community pages to list this information rather than icon stick near some user names.
It has links to seperate pages in peoples userspace in which people basically put lists of the books etc they use. This so we could ask eachother for help. Like you have a book about X could you please look something up for me?
That's an interesting idea. My own personal library is manic in proportion, and I really would like to make better use of it. The problem would come in trying to list what I have available. :-)
I was happy I am in Thailand in this respect, as in the Netherlands I still have over a hundred books (mostly 2nd ww) so I only had to list about 20. We already had the first usefull exchanges in people asking eachother to look things up. Basically most of us wrote down everything, from specific dictionaries and encyclopedias through travelguides to very specific books. We could even have something on Meta ..... the wikilibrary? the wikisearch?
