“Continuation” in Japanese is 存続 (sonzoku).

Describes something continuing to exist over time, especially when its existence might otherwise end.

市民は地域の図書館の存続を求めています。shi min wa chi iki no to sho kan no son zoku o moto me te i ma su

The citizens are calling for the continuation of the local library.

In formal Japanese, 存続 (sonzoku) is common for institutions, systems, and traditions, so it sounds more official than everyday words for something simply continuing.
