‘Four Bears’ document added to notable list



23 July 2012

The North Dakota Department of Transportation has announced that “Crossing the Water: An Oral History of Four Bears Bridge” has been named to the list of Notable Government Documents for 2011.

“Crossing the Water” is a DVD set produced by the NDDOT that uses historic photographs and video footage to illustrate the past of the three bridges that have been called “Four Bears.”

The North Dakota Library Association nominated “Crossing the Water” for the Notable Documents ballot at its annual conference in 2011. The program recognizes North Dakota state agency documents of exceptional quality and usefulness.

All three NDLA submissions in 2011 were selected by the national committee. Joining “Crossing the Water” in representing North Dakota on the list are North Dakota Parks and Recreation’s “North Dakota Trail Guide” and the North Dakota Council of the Arts’ “Sundogs and Sunflowers: Folklore and Folk Art of the Northern Great Plains.”
