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?
