The huge task of moving millions of New Zealand's most precious documents to their new home begins in Wellington this week. Archives New Zealand is moving just across the road from its current location in Mulgrave street to Heke Rua, which is linked to the national library. It's a building which cost $290 million and has been eight years in the making. Chief archivist Anahere Morehu spoke to Melissa Chan-Green about how the prized pieces of history will be transported safely.
