The tzinfo class of datetime has this reference <URL:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytz/> and a reference to the Totally Official List: <URL:http://www.iana.org/time-zones> Some people recommend showing the offset from UTC, because of ambiguities in timezone names, although some of those ambiguities aren't a problem if you have additional context (e.g., an example city: "EST (New York City)".)
