I do not know if Sound Ideas (a Canadian company) has SE online, but you could contact them and inquire. Up until the beginning of this century, I purchased AV materials and my contact there was Marty, I think. I am not sure if he is still there but he was very good about answering my questions regarding their materials, copyright, and and use in student productions.

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.
