Next Generation Librarianship: Where Do We Go from Here?
The College of DuPage (Illinois) Press has a great list of resources on this important issue. You might also check out my new book, Out Front with Stephen Abram: A Guide for Information Leaders, compiled by Judith A. Siess and Jonathan Lorig, ALA Editions, 2007, ISBN 0-8389-0932-9. It has a lot on this subject (and other good stuff, too).
