Feb. 19, 2008 — UVA Want Ads on Collab debuted on December 19th, 2007, following the official closing of the University’s Usenet groups.  Since that date, more than 900 University community members have joined this vibrant group.

UVA Want Ads allows University community members to:

•    Offer items for sale
•    Post notices about UVA community events
•    List rental and “for sale” housing
•    Post “Wanted to Buy” requests
•    Interact with other members of the University community in a positive way


Collab UVa-administered and access is restricted to UVA community members and collaborators.   UVA Want Ads is free of commercial ads – only community ads and announcements are permitted.
