Latin Small Letter Long S belongs to Latin Extended-A, a Unicode block created specifically to give Central and Eastern European languages full native-alphabet support in digital text — before Unicode, each language often needed its own incompatible code page.
Unicode block: Latin Extended-A (U+0100–U+017F). Latin Extended-A covers accented and modified Latin letters needed for Central European, Baltic, and Nordic languages (Czech, Polish, Croatian, Turkish, and more) that Latin-1 didn't include.
At Unicode code point U+017F (decimal 383), Latin Small Letter Long S is the 128th of 128 characters cataloged in this category on How To Type Any Symbol.

Regardless of platform, clicking the copy button above places the exact character on your clipboard, ready to paste into any application that accepts Unicode text.
