Tips for constructing successful database queries:

 Enter one term per field or two terms sequentially (if you already know the title):

• Name:  author, name of the group or ensemble, composer or performer; enter last name, or last name followed by first name
  

• Title: Enter the title as it appears in your information source, in the original language; try in French or in English
• Subject: Follow standard library classification categories; you may also enter subjects by musical genres and styles
• Label: Name of the record company
  

Understanding the search results:

• Accession number: The Phonothèque staff assigns a number in standard archival format (acquisition year / collection number / item number)
  
• Date: For records, the date indicates the release date or the most recent date given in the information source.
