Basic Search Using the CKO Online’s Basic search engine is pretty straightforward: type in search terms or keywords relating to your query, and hit the search button. Every item in the CKO Online database is classified into different fields. The basic search engine looks for your query in the following fields of every item: title, abstract and keywords. To make your search more effective, use the Advanced search. Boolean Operators Anytime you use the search engine, all the words you typed in should appear in the results. All words search is set by default. For example, if you search for "innovation drivers" the results will contain documents that include both words from the fields in which the engine searches. CKO Online searches require utilization of shorthand operators such as "+" (shorthand for AND) and "-" (shorthand for NOT). Capitalization CKo searches are not case-sensitive. All letters, regardless of how you type them, will be understood as lower case. For example, searches for "Innovation Drivers", "innovation drivers", and "InNoVaTiOn DrIvErS" will return the same results. Basic Search Query processing innovation drivers This query asks for documents which contain the terms "innovation" AND "drivers." The search engine works with word occurrence. It gives more weigth to documents that contain more words in the fields in which the engine searches. "innovation drivers" Enclosing the search terms with quotation marks force multiple words to be treated as a phrase. This will return all documents that have the exact phrase "innovation drivers" but it will not show a page that only has the phrase "The drivers of innovation…" +innovation -drivers This query returns documents with innovation NOT drivers. +innov +drivers This query returns documents with drivers AND all words beginning with innov… We suggest using this option when you don’t know the exact spelling of a word.
