John is talking about usage of RACF to remove access using a HLQ.

Or you can rename all of them with .X or .OLD or whatever.

Still at RACF, if your target libraries are covered in PROGRAM RACF class, 
remove them too. Also look at Global Access Table too.

Just check out your parmlibs and your PROCLIBs too. Just use a search utility 
to discover all these target libraries.

Just have a TSO proc ready which does not have those libraries allocated 
somewhere. I know this is CICS, but depending on custom setup, some of these 
libraries may be used there.

If you're risk aversive, you can use RACF SMF records since last IPL to see 
whether those libraries were really used or not.
