The Oswego Historical Society, Inc., is a not-for-profit Kansas corporation that was organized after the City of Oswego centennial celebration in 1967, to care for historical artifacts, to preserve documents and other resources of value to historians and genealogical researchers, to maintain certain historic markers in the community, and to provide educational services for the public.

The Society receives part of its financial support from local government through the Labette County Historical Society, of which it is a chapter; a significant part via an endowment from the Wayne O'Connell estate; and much of its support through individual contributions from members and private citizens.

The Society is governed by a Board of Directors, normally chosen at the annual Spring membership meeting. Kevin Sheddrick was elected President for 2022. The current Board also includes Janet King, Patti Amos, Marna Taylor, Cheynea Clifton, John Davis, and Jolene Conway.
