Our subject guides have this capability if the subject librarian wishes 
to use it:

http://www.library.gatech.edu/research_help/subject/?/physics
http://www.library.gatech.edu/research_help/subject/?/biomedical
http://www.library.gatech.edu/research_help/subject/?/civil_engineering
etc.

Seems to be fairly popular (with the librarians, no clue about the users).
