Abstract: Model continuity plays an important role in applications like system identification, adaptive control, and machine learning. This paper provides sufficient conditions under which input-output systems represented by locally convergent Chen-Fliess series are jointly continuous with respect to their generating series and as operators mapping a ball in an

L_{p}

-space to a ball in an

L_{q}

-space, where

p

and

q

are conjugate exponents. The starting point is to introduce a class of topological vector spaces known as Silva spaces to frame the problem and then to employ the concept of a direct limit to describe convergence. The proof of the main continuity result combines elements of proofs for other forms of continuity appearing in the literature to produce the desired conclusion.
