Though not "official documentation" I'd like to mention a relatively recent book (March 2016) on desktop publishing I stumbled across -
Designing with LibreOffice. While essentially on that subject it seems a good general introduction to using styles and templates and so on. The book was written for LibreOffice but the author states it is also applicable to Apache OpenOffice and NeoOffice.
http://designingwithlibreoffice.com It is free to download but a donation would make the author happy and that helps the world go round. If you want a hardcopy book you can purchase that - details at the website.
The author is interviewed here:
http://designingwithlibreoffice.com/interview and gives some good general background information on the development of OpenOffice and its DTP capabilities.

I find the following Writer documentation useful:
Writer FAQ,
Writer Tutorials and
the up to date
AOO Writer for Students which is good for non-students too.
All AOO Writer, Calc, Draw, Impress, Math and Base User Guides for v3.3 are in one place here:
OpenOffice.org 3.3 User Guides (PDF). There are no AOO guides for later versions.
I cannot use Calc without accessing
Calc Functions listed by category as it gives examples of each function's use.
