As centre of reference for Olympic knowledge, one of the missions of The Olympic Studies Centre (OSC) is to curate and share official and reliable information with professional and academic researchers.

In our "OSC Reference Collection", we offer you comprehensive and chronological information on various key topics related to the Olympic Movement, the Olympic Games and the IOC, going back in history of the modern Olympic Games. The documents capture all important facts, figures, anecdotes and illustrative images on topics ranging from Olympic villages, stadiums, torchrelays, medals, sports pictograms, the history of sports on the Olympic Programme, and many more.

Carefully illustrated, these documents provide access to first-hand and up-to-date information.

The content in the Reference documents is made available to you by The IOC Olympic Studies Centre for non-commercial, educational, research, analysis, review or reporting purposes only. The content shall not be re-distributed, in part or in whole, except to the extent that such content is a derivative work created by you.
