There is some information on this FHSU website page:
http://www.fhsu.edu/facilities-planning/campus-buildings/Forsyth-Library/

And also here:http://www.fhsu.edu/library/archives/forsyth-library-history.html

More extensive information, and photos, are available in these books, which are available at the Reserve Desk on the main floor of the library:

Lighthouse on the Plains: FHSU, 1902-2002, by James Forsythe
A History of Fort Hays Kansas State College, 1902-1961, by L.D. Wooster
The First 75 Years: A History of Fort Hays State University, 1902-1977, by James Forsythe

Just look for "library" in the index in the back of each book to locate relevant passages.

You can see old photos of the library in the Lyman Dwight Wooster Photograph Collection, part of our Digital Collections.  Just search for "forsyth library".
