You can use below mentioned code to move files from one Document library to another document library programmatically.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.SharePoint;
namespace MoveTo
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://serverName:1111/SitePages/Home.aspx"))
            {
                using (SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)
                {
                    SPFileCollection collFile = web.GetFolder("Shared Documents").Files;
                    int count = collFile.Count;
                    while (count != 0)
                    {
                        collFile[count - 1].MoveTo("Destination Library/" + collFile[count - 1].Name, true);
                        count--;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

You can user SPQuery to filter files from document library on above mentioned code...

Another method is to create ribbon button & get selected files on that button click event & move them to another document library.

Happy Coding.... :)

Using GUI, you can open Explorer View and make simple drag and drop.
