Data in the long tail is an important research resource. Due to the lack of social attention and technical support, its use value is long neglected. Based on the brief summary of the definition, properties and importance of data in the long tail, this paper generalizes the theoretical research of data sharing in the long tail from five research perspectives of barriers and countermeasures, web infrastructure, users' behaviors, libraries and librarians' responsibilities, and organic data sharing. Based on data lifecycle theory, it summarizes five kinds of commom management tools of data sharing in the long tail,including DMP Tool, DataUp, EZID, Merritt repository, and data publishing platform. Finally, this paper points out the social and technical barriers of data sharing in the long tail and proposes recommendations in future.
Key words: e-science; long tail data; curation data; sharing factor; data management tools
