No that is not the name of a new SciFi movie. "Shape Shifters: Librarians Evolve Yet Again in the Age of Google," is a special issue of the journal Library Philosophy and Practice. It is free and available at http://libr.unl.edu:2000/LPP/lppgoogle.htm and at the journal's mirror site, http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~mbolin/lppgoogle.htm.

"Librarians have a long history of responding professionally and creatively to changes in information dissemination technology. It is no surprise, therefore, that they are adapting themselves and their work to Google, its many modules, and its many competitors. Articles in 'Shape Shifters' explore how library services, resources, and job activities are changing in response to these tools and the paradigm shift they herald."
