Summary

[edit]
Description

While staff and archives were safe, the building and its shelving were damaged. Staff left the building that afternoon and some were not to return until April. The building was well within the central city cordon red zone and access was only regained with difficulty on the Monday following the earthquake. Staff initially re-occupied a building in a deserted city that was insecure, without power or water and subject to continuing significant aftershocks. For a number of months they were the only people working for several city blocks as they carried out repairs, salvage work and prepared the office for eventual re-opening.

The images are from photographs taken by Archives staff in the months following 22 February 2011.
