One of the TV newsmagazines had a film report on this... the
facilities look rather nice and modern.  The move is also very
complex.  The documents are placed in metal containers which are then
placed on custom designed shelves which are then wrapped for the move.
If I remember correctly, we should soon see Mayflower ads about how
people should choose them to move their personal possesions since the
Archieves choose them to move the nation's. :-)
