If an effect says "You may search your library . . . If you do, shuffle your library" or "You may search your library . . . then shuffle your library," you can't choose to search, so you won't shuffle.

Effects that instruct you to reveal or look at cards from the top of you library will still work. Only effects that use the word "search" are affected.
