How to assign Pick a Random Book to a keyboard combination?

I apologize profusely if this subject has been covered previously. I was unable to find either this question or obviously an answer to it.

Can someone spell out simply how to assign a keyboard combination (of my choice) to the function – Pick a Random Book – in Calibre.

I am running Windows 10. The latest version of caliber. And I can only access this function by right clicking on library, and then going down to the Pick a Random Book function in that menu.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and replying if you choose to do so!

James E Gluckin.

Why? There already is one
Ctrl+Alt+R

But if you want to change it... Preferences:Shortcuts:<Search or pick>
