So Can't I choose which module to use. Is there any preferance on which shelve chooses these modules?
it uses the anydbm module to look for available DBM-style drivers, which looks for modules in the following order: dbhash, gdbm, dbm, dumbdbm.
if you know which one you want, you can open the database file yourself, and pass it to the Shelf constructor:
import shelve
import somedbm
db = shelve.Shelf(somedbm.open(file, flag))
