OK, great. So that means that within the database if the creator is a person
it (he/she!) would appear in an author (or editor) field, and if it was an
organisation it would appear in, for example, an organisation field. Are you
handling this during the insert citation process or expecting it to be
handled within the database?
The latter. We want to use SRU/W, which uses CQL, which is based on abstract indices. In other words, the details are up the database; it just needs to understand "creator."
Obviously this has an impact if the bibliography plug-in is to handle multiple database sources.
The details are really determined by MODS, which provides the metadata structure. In MODS you have:
<name type="personal"> <namePart type="given">Jane</namePart> <namePart type="family">Doe</namePart> </name>
<name type="corporate"> <namePart>Organization Name</namePart> </name>
