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

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?

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
