I am working on a Ruby script that will harvest mp3 recordings of our chapel 
services and upload them into DSpace. Basically the script downloads the files, 
puts each in a directory with the dublin core and content list, uploads them to 
our DSpace server, and imports them using the batch importer.

I am recording the name of the speaker as dc.contributor.author, but I would 
also like to capture the name of the department that created the files.

In writing the Dublin Core files, I began to wonder if I should use the name of 
the creating organization, which is a department on campus, as dc.creator. The 
notes for dc.creator on the Metadata Schema page of DSpace say "Do not use; 
only for harvested metadata." However, since I am harvesting this metadata, 
would it be appropriate to use it?
