Second, you'll have to change the audio format (Audio CD format won't play from a hard disk). You'll probably want to "rip" the CD to your server in MP3 format. There are lots of software programs that can do this for you. If the material is from a standard textbook series, you should have a look at the IALLT Digital Exchange to see whether someone else may have already converted the materials. If so, and your copyright permissions are in order, you'll be able to download them and save yourself a lot of work. Once the audio files are on your server, you'll need to create a web page with links to the converted audio files.
