any process that facilitates the location of and access to data, information, or knowledge in the organizational knowledge base. This is primarily seen as a process pertaining to explicit knowledge but may be interpreted to apply to the search and retrieval of tacit knowledge as well. Explicit knowledge may pertain, for example, to the retrieval of relevant ‘documents’ (including text, data, drawing, videos, 3-D models, etc.) regardless of their location, format and language. Important factors to consider here include ensuring the ability to use advanced retrieval software, interoperability across heterogeneous databases and systems, multilingualism, etc.
