Starting with library.osu.edu, we will be updating reds on our websites to scarlet in accordance with the Ohio State brand. We’re taking an iterative approach to the standardization, so it won’t happen overnight. You may not even notice.

Consistent use of color supports visual cohesion across our communications and leverages emotional resonance with our brand . . . Scarlet and gray in combination are as well known as our name. They are our signature colors by which our audiences identify us as Ohio State. brand.osu.edu
