Help with essay question on carrier aviation in the 60's!

Evening,

I have been over to BRNC and have looked through their library and managed to get some good information on this but not enough to write 3000 words. The essay title is: Why did carrier aviation go into global decline by the late 1960s?

Now correct me if i'm wrong but I thought that it was the British that encountered a decline, with possibly a small amount in other Navies but nothing significant?

I'm struggling for good academic work (and not opinions) to use, BRNC for obvious reasons was very UK focused so i'm stuck when it comes to the global part!
From reading through what I have I seem to have bits and pieces but nothing substantial. Our university library is ****e for anything maritime related and with it being the Christmas break my lecturer is unavailable.

Any pointers for good online sources?

Thanks
Wannabe
