Use the Resource Type option on the left hand side of the screen to limit your search to ebooks. You may have to click on Show More to get to the ebook option.

Click on the title of an ebook you want to look at.
Before connecting to the book, you MUST with your UW NetID.

With this book, Creating Jazz Counterpoint, I can read it online or download it to my computer.  Note that it says that we have unlimited access to it.  That is very good!
