 Usage
 ^^^^^
 
-Store instances can be created with the :meth:`plugin` function:
+Most cases passing the name of the store to the Graph constrcutor is enough: 
 
 .. code-block:: python
 
-    from rdflib import plugin
-    from rdflib.store import Store
-    plugin.get('.. one of the supported Stores ..',Store)(identifier=.. id of conjunctive graph ..)
+    from rdflib import Graph
+
+    graph = Graph(store='Sleepycat')
+
+
+If additional configuration of the store is required, a store instances can be created with the :meth:`plugin` function:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from rdflib import plugin, Store, Graph
+
+    store = plugin.get('.. one of the supported Stores ..',Store)(identifier=.. id of conjunctive graph ..)
+    
+    graph = Graph(store=store)
