Jill
Jill is a library floater which means she works all over, but she especially likes working in the children's area. She enjoys playing trivia games, watching college basketball, and hanging out with her family. She has many pets, including a crab named "Hurricane."

Tari
Tari Tharp works in the Children's Department of the Oxford Branch.
She loves reading, ice cream, going to basketball and football games, ice cream, flowers, making (and eating) cookies or pies or cakes, and jumping into Lake Cumberland for a swim! Her favorite times are those spent with her husband and son. When she was little she used to pretend to be characters from the books she'd read. She lives in a house my great-grandparents built almost 100 years ago.
