Dominican College is a coeducational, independent Catholic liberal arts
college of approximately 1,400 students with a tradition of
interdisciplinary study in the humanities, a global perspective, and a
strong commitment to educating  students.  Nestled among 80 acres in San
Rafael, the county seat of Marin, Dominican is just 11 miles north of the
Golden Gate Bridge -- which leads directly into San Francisco and its wealth
of cultural  experiences. San Rafael is also connected to Berkeley and San
Francisco's East Bay by the  Richmond-San Rafael Bridge.  Archbishop Alemany
Library , named in honor of Joseph Sadoc Alemany, first Archbishop of San
Francisco, opened its doors to the college community on April 17, 1963.
Reference services include access to a variety of computerized databases and
indexes.  The library also provides computer facilities to assist students
in their studies.
