Our story begins in 1990 when Andy and Audrey Fenton, together with Nan and John Pert, launched their microfilming services, aiming to capture and preserve Aotearoa New Zealand’s local and national history. The strong partnerships formed with libraries and museums, ensured valuable resources were safeguarded for future generations.

Today, NZMS provides a wide range of services including digitisation, consultancy, microfilm, equipment, fine art printing, and community engagement software. We have branches in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, and Ōtautahi Christchurch, serving clients nationwide. While many of our clients are often GLAMIR sector organisations (galleries, libraries, archives, museums, iwi, records) we also work with central and local government, universities, schools, clubs and societies, commercial enterprises, artists, and private individuals.

Our team of knowledgeable industry experts take a collaborative approach, prioritising the needs of our client and their unique collections
