Your understanding on 856 is correct. Since you want to track the
cataloger who created that record, I would say that you can use 040 -
https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd040.html

the field is used to track the cataloging agency. but nothing really
stops you from adding your cataloging librarian's name / code as
modifying agency and track it. A bit of jquery and you should be good
to go!
