Just found out about this; basically you can get a free account at http://www.netlibrary.com if you sign up through one of the library terminals (in the library). Once you have the account set up you can access the ebooks from wherever. If you've used the Safari thing at O'Reilly it'll be a familar; pretty much the same - just fewer titles. :/
