Scientific article writing is an essential academic literacy skill for final-year students preparing research findings for journal publication. This study describes the implementation of a digital e-booklet designed to support students in organizing and preparing scientific articles. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study was conducted in the Indonesian Language and Literature Education Study Program at Pattimura University, Ambon, Indonesia, in March-April 2026. Data were collected through observations, previous article drafts, journal templates and author guidelines, consultation records, product documentation, and a Google Forms questionnaire completed by 31 students. The data were analyzed through thematic grouping and source triangulation. Findings revealed three main student needs: guidance on article structure and abstract writing, understanding journal-specific templates and author guidelines, and support for citation, referencing, and theoretical integration. In response, the e-booklet provided sequential guidance from the abstract to the reference list and included journal-related information accessible through a digital link and QR code. All 31 respondents selected “Yes” for the five evaluative items on clarity, usefulness, relevance, and satisfaction. Feedback also indicated the need for a complete model article. The findings describe implementation and user perceptions, not causal improvements in writing competence.
