High-density movable shelving is a good solution for increasing the capacity of an existing library/archive facility. Materials other than books can be stored in these things, and best of all, they're on rails.
Colorado RR Museum has some of this kind of shelving set up in one portion of the basement; I understand they obtained it at a good price because the initial buyer of the units canceled prior to delivery.

Some years ago I had a behind the scenes tour at San Diego Historical Society. They had planned for the future and installed the track system for the movable shelving; but had only obtained the shelf units for the material then on hand. These units were being left stationary until more units were obtained as required.
