I don't know that there is anything in the registry that will do this directly. iTunes has a couple of ways to share the library and look for shared libraries that are controlled through the Edit > Preferences panel. Will that not do?

I know how to disable it, but I want to disable the option of sharing the library, to avoid traffic on our network
You can probably block the iTunes/Bonjour applications or a couple of ports in Windows Firewall.
These support documents should give you some hints:
HT1601 - Archived - iTunes for Windows: Music Sharing With Windows Internet Connection Firewall
PH12372 - iTunes 11 for Windows: Enable iTunes in the Windows Firewall
TS3448 - iTunes for Windows: Bonjour alert due to firewall, security, or proxy software
Though obviously you'll be looking for ways to create the problem instead of resolve it. 😉
If your organization uses roaming profiles then it is also worth making sure that the user's iTunes libraries are not located within the profile and likewise any iOS device backups are safely redirected to local storage.
