And not only that, they have a lot of source code on GitHub, so anyone with an annoyance and some free time can fix things up: https://github.com/internetarchive/bookreader
I guess a more direct analog to the original link would be https://archive.org/download/FDNYforcibleEntryReferenceGuide... , which will take you directly to the PDF and provides the load-balanced benefits.

I linked to the item's main page, which has other download options for different e-readers, metadata, etc, in addition to the bookreader interface (which provides additional options like Read Aloud and Search Inside (and it's open source! https://github.com/internetarchive/bookreader ).

This is archive.org's reader and scan, even pulls it from their cdn. I'm surprised you can embed it completely unbranded.

Apparently the greyed background link at the bottom takes you to the official site but just in the theater view. So I still can't navigate out of it to actually see archive.org without inspecting the url.

I'm mixed on this. archive.org should probably have some branding or site navigable something somewhere, right? nobody has brought it up over at https://github.com/internetarchive/bookreader/ . archive.org is fantastic. I don't know how to suggest to them to surface their brand and the library project.
