Try Sound Ideas in Canada.  They have a hard drive that can be server based.  
Good quality.

Subject: [Videolib] Sound effects libraries

Hi,
I have a faculty member who is looking for sound effects libraries similar to 
the BBC collection on 60 CDs but server or web based. The issue is that the CDs 
are a little awkward to use and require a lot of searching. I have found that 
the BBC collection is available on a hard drive. The question is are there any 
libraries who purchase sound effect libraries on  hard drives or web based and 
then circulate/provide access to these to students? I have found many example 
of media centers or digital centers at universities that make sound effects 
collections available but not too many examples of  libraries that are 
circulating sound effects or stock video collections on a hard drive. My guess 
is that there are licensing issues involved. Is anyone doing this? Does anyone 
know of a sound effects or stock video/image collection that is online that is 
subscription based and allows multiple user access?

Thanks,

Stefanie Buck
