The library was first housed in Old Main, which also contained the college's reception room, lecture hall, specimen museum, students' rooms, a chapel, kitchen, laundry, and dining room. An initial purchase of $2,500 for books for the library was made in 1870 by President Welch. The library was moved to Morrill Hall in 1896 and to the Central Building (now Beardshear Hall) in 1913. In 1925, the new library building was completed to house the library's 115,000 volumes under one roof. The new facility was not large enough to allow for adequate expansion and was outgrown within five years.

The first Iowa State intercollegiate football game was played in 1892 against the State Center team under coach Ira C. Brownlie who was also the captain. College president William Beardshear started an athletic association to officially sanction Iowa State athletic teams in 1894. In1895, Iowa State played Northwestern University and won 36-0. After that game, the headline on the Chicago Tribune read ""Struck by a Cyclone"" in reference to Iowa State's impressive win over Northwestern. Since then, the Iowa State athletic teams have been known as the Cyclones. Glenn ""Pop"" Warner coached the football team for a few weeks every year during1895-1899. In 1914, a new field was constructed and at first named ""New State Field"" in reference to the old field, which was just simply called State field. Later it would be known as Clyde Williams Field. In 1975, the football games began to be played at the newly constructed Cyclone Stadium, which was later renamed Jack Trice Stadium. Iowa State made it to its first bowl game, the Sun Bowl, in 1971.
