Sure it could. But the OP asked.
Personally, I wouldn't use them for smaller cuts of less than 2 yards (as someone else mentioned upthread). But it's always a possibility. Right now, the shelving units I'm using are way too big to make that work. Plus, I really, really, like my large bin storage system. All 120 of them. ;-)
If you look at the OP's bookcase, unless she added another shelf for every two, there would be a lot of wasted space. And if you stack them like she has her folds, it doesn't make the mass any more manageable.
If one was to go this route, I think it would be beneficial only if they were upright.
But then here's another (cheaper) option that just popped up - some further investigation is warranted:
