After years as a Kentucky Room librarian at Central, Wayne Johnson has some stories to tell. From family trees to 50-year-old T-ball pictures, he's just about seen it all. "When you're able to find the story or picture about them, they are thrilled to death. Just watching their reaction and the joy it brings to them makes the job even better."
