If you want to see what shared libraries are being used by a process at the moment you could do something like the following (replacing 3250 with the appropriate prcess number):
cat /proc/3250/task/*/maps |sort |uniq |awk '{print $6}'|sort |uniq
You might be interested in the LD_DEBUG environment variable:
LD_DEBUG=unused name_of_command_to_run
You can get a list of available options with:
LD_DEBUG=help /bin/false
