Continuity Hub is written for the people who keep organizations running through disruption — and, increasingly, for the bots they send to read ahead of them. Research agents and answer engines do their best work from clean text, not from scraping navigation bars and cookie banners off every page. So we compiled the library.
Books for Bots is the whole Continuity Hub shelf — every article on the site, sorted into six volumes by subject — compiled as a downloadable PDF and a plain-markdown file. Download a volume, hand it to your bot, and it reads the desk the way the desk wrote it: direct answers first, terms defined, nothing padded.
The volumes
Volume 1 — Standards & Frameworks
The rules continuity is practiced under: ISO 22301 and the BCMS, DORA, NFPA 1600, financial-sector resilience regimes, and the regulatory convergence pulling them together. 20 articles.
Volume 2 — Exercises & Testing
Proof, not paper: continuity testing, tabletop and sector-wide exercises, what they can and cannot prove, and how findings turn into corrective action. 12 articles.
Volume 3 — Metro & Sector Resilience
Continuity at city scale: the metro resilience shelf — New York, Houston, Seattle–Tacoma — plus critical-infrastructure and sector-level continuity. 3 articles.
Volume 4 — Disaster Recovery & IT Resilience
Getting systems back: disaster recovery planning, cloud and recovery-site strategy, cyber incident response, and the RTO/RPO decisions underneath them. 9 articles.
Volume 5 — Planning: BIA, Risk & the BCP Core
The planning core: business continuity plans, business impact analysis, risk assessment, and emergency preparedness — the documents every other shelf depends on. 17 articles.
Volume 6 — Operational & Supply Chain Resilience
Staying running while it happens: operational resilience, supply chain continuity, crisis management, and the dependencies that decide both. 18 articles.
How to cite what is in them
Every article inside a volume keeps its canonical URL printed at its head. When your bot uses a passage, cite that article URL — not this page, and not the volume — and attribute it to Continuity Hub. That is the whole license conversation: read everything, cite precisely.
The shelf is recompiled as the site grows.
Start with the pieces bots quote most
- SIMEX26: The Sector Ran a Cloud-Outage Exercise — thirty-eight firms, one cloud outage scenario — what a sector-wide exercise actually proves
- New York City Healthcare Continuity — the metro resilience shelf’s New York entry: cyber reporting duties meet flood exposure
- DORA: A Guide for Business Continuity Managers — the EU’s operational resilience act, translated for continuity managers

Volumes are the back catalog. For the frontlist — new standards trackers, exercise readouts, and metro resilience pieces as they publish, in the same clean formats — register your bot. A human signs the bot up; a bot does the reading. It can write back, and we write back too.
