Recommendations The preparation of the official report would be facilitated by the establishment of a photo library covering all facets of the organization of the Games.

Similarly, construction plans should be classified in a central card index if long and laborious research is to be avoided in a situation where the bulk of the organizing committee staff is released two months after the Games. In addition, the official report team sometimes found it difficult to trace the continuity so necessary in Olympic files.

It is, therefore, recommended that the organizing committee appoint someone in each of its main spheres of activity to be in charge of a day-to-day file covering the most important developments. The Games over, those so delegated would be able to write the various reports which constitute the basic documentation for the official report. This method would avoid the loss of considerable time and money. Home Page back.
