==Programming Sign-up==
Code4Lib Midwest programming depends on the folks attending the conference. Please consider giving a presentation or lightning talk, or submitting your ideas for a hackfest/breakout session.
Share what you are working on! Add your name and a description below. Please also let us know how long you'll need(10 or 20 minutes), and whether you prefer Wednesday or Thursday (or if it doesn't matter). Contact Ryan Wick (ryanwick@gmail.com) with your preferred username to set up a Code4Lib wiki account. If you don't have a wiki account and don't want to sign up for one, please email [mailto:mheller1@luc.edu mheller1@luc.edu].
===Presentations ===
'''Digitizing World War One Music with the Illinois State Library and Pritzker Military Museum''' - Andrew Bullen, Illinois State Library I can talk about this program and how we use optical musical recognition to make “playable” MP3 files for the tunes. '''[https://luc.box.com/s/i4objwmgt0trydnwekb0ddjdk9zn12t1 Digital Preservation at Loyola University Chicago]''' - Margaret Heller (and possibly others)Asmina Akram, Loyola University Chicago
We made the vended choice for digital preservation, but what does that actually mean in practice?
10 minutes
'''[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1SqdnooQRpGmuVB6_nwXnr1rmmZICAunMc_UatgWB-xU/edit?usp=sharing Library Website Redesign Panel Discussion]''' - Various
In 2016, several Chicago-area libraries redesigned their websites. This panel will discuss the different processes they went through and results.
 
'''[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1DmruGeKwqWUE_kc2J1SA57_S1sg0nhZL9vu__2tMK3Y Towards a Linked Data workflow]''' - Tod A. Olson, University of Chicago
 
The U. Chicago Library is experimenting with acting as a producer and consumer of linked data. I will discuss a pilot project involving centered around an existing collection of photographs.
 
'''Search Experience at the University of Michigan Library''' - Jon Earley, University of Michigan
 
Our newest search tool aims to greatly improve the discoverability and accessibility of our enormous volume of resources by bringing our complex siloed resources together and make them easily searchable in one interface. This presentation will focus on front-end technology decisions and architecture, why we decided to build this discovery interface, the overall strategic direction, and a demo of the beta application. W, 20 minutes
 
'''Omeka to Scalar Transition''' - Matt Krc, Newberry Library
 
'''Computational Archival Science: Highlights from the 2016 CAS Workshop''' ([https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1F62zA_jPsmbFVxbICI2e_HT__YFjRcDoABRVKRKMa5k/edit?pli=1#slide=id.p Slides]) - Robert J. Sandusky, University of Illinois at Chicago
 
The workshop [http://dcicblog.umd.edu/cas/ieee_big_data_2016_cas-workshop Computational Archival Science: Digital Records in the Age of Big Data] was held at the IEEE Big Data conference in Washington, D.C. in December 2016. This presentation will highlight some of the themes that emerged from the presentations, papers, posters, and discussions at the workshop. A related breakout session will allow code4lib Midwest attendees share what they're doing computationaly and what they need to scale up and improve accessibility, discoverability, and processing of archives and records. W, 20 minutes

===Breakout Sessions===
Actual breakout sessions presented and locations will be determined on April 26. Please propose an idea here if you are willing to facilitate a discussion on a topic.
'''Moving Toward the Computational Archive'''Facilitated discussion around questions like:# How are you using automation or computational approaches to improve archival practice?# What opportunities have you considered / identified regarding computational approaches to archiving?# What is needed to develop and move toward implementation of computational approaches to archival practice?# What is computational provenance and do archives need it? (See [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain Blockchain]and [https: What is it //www.w3.org/TR/prov-overview/ PROV])Margaret Heller and how do we use it?Bob Sandusky. Here are the breakout session [http://bit.ly/2pmuAIu notes for Moving Toward the Computational Archive]. '''[http://jekyllrb.com/ Building a site with Jekyll]'''An idea Margaret Kate Flynn and Allan are consideringBerry'''Hackathon Pedagogies for In-Class Use'''Bethany McGowan
