This part of “Go Library” we will be looking at our digital resources from an obtuse and sometimes bizarre angle.   This month we are looking at all things associated with the colour red but in our usual attempt to be slightly off-colour R A N D O M will be feeling “in the PINK” looking at how we perceive the word, the concept and the colour in the hope that it will tickle you pink. The Oxford English Dictionary lists some nine uses of pink, almost all meaning small, young, minor, inferior, ornamental, or insignificant. A pink is a small sailing vessel; a minor gunshot wound; a decorative trimming, the smallest and least useful of our fingers. Pink also means watered-down, "evanescent," translucent shade; a rosé wine is neither robust like a red, nor subtle as a white. On the other hand, an excellent state of health is seen as "being in the pink," while good humour leaves us tickled pink. Pink connects with British social imaginary, as stately, royal, and imperial and reaches into that once -premier British institution the foxhunt (a "pink" refers to the scarlet jacket worn by fox hunters). Thomas Pink, was supposed to have devised this costume, and still that name is connected to mens' outfitting. So why not float away with us now into our pinker-than-pink R A N D O M?
