As a member, UWAA provides you access to EBSCO Academic Search Alumni Edition online journals.  The Libraries contracts for online journals are separate from UWAA.

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.
