• User Guide for the Phonobase Search Module :
On the search page, to discover, for example, a sung or recited content that might have a connection, even an anecdotal one, with the automobile, type the word "automobile" in the Search all fields box. - To only hear a title that contains the word "automobile", type the word "automobile" in the Title box of the Targeted search field. - You can combine multiple searches: by typing the word "automobile" in the Title box, and the name of the singer "Dutreux" in the Performer box, you will access different versions of the song Le Chauffeur d'automobile sung by Dutreux. - If you just type "auto" in the All fields search, you will get many more results, including words like "automatique", "automne", "édition autorisée", "phonautographie", etc.
In any case, after entering a query, you need to press the "enter" key on the keyboard or click the Y'en a ! button.
In a results table, the images 
and 
are clickable, allowing you to sort that column of results.
The image 
confirms the presence of one or more photos of the recorded document. Any word that changes color when hovering the mouse over it in the results list is clickable. By clicking on Full record, you access a full record that contains
all the references of a recording, including, if available, access to the file to listen, photos, and the sung text. When a song is not in the public domain, the corresponding audio file is inaccessible, and the mention Audio unavailable or available under conditions appears. There is not
yet an authority list, and you must have at least an initial query. This will contain at least one word, or even a letter.
