Log in to Access
Online access to UW Libraries journals:
As a UWAA member, you have access to EBSCO Academic Search Alumni Edition online journals through your membership . The Libraries’ contracts for online journals are separate from the UWAA’s.
The Libraries licenses and agreements with publishers for access to online journals limit access to current students, faculty and staff of the University. The Libraries cannot expand remote access to the online journals without being in violation of those agreements.
* For questions or concerns regarding access and privileges of a UW Library Borrowers Card, visit or contact them at libaccts@uw.edu or call 206-543-1174.
