1.
Government owned or operated institutions (except schools, colleges and universities) are found within the governance, funding and professional support domain even if their activity falls within the scope of one of the other sub-domains. For example, a government-operated library would be included under the governance, funding and professional support (culture) domain and not under the libraries sub-domain.
2.
The multi domain includes culture industries that are associated with more than one culture domain: the culture portion of convention and trade show organizers; manufacturing and reproducing unrecorded media; lessors of non-financial intangible assets; internet publishing and broadcasting and web search portal industries. These culture industries all affect more than one culture domain but cannot be easily allocated to a single domain, so they have been aggregated together.
3.
The heritage and libraries domain includes only private institutions. All government owned/operated institutions (federal, provincial or municipal) are included within the governance, funding and professional support (culture) domain.
