The fact that biblatex.sty exists in your system does not imply that
your program will find it.
Try to update the list of pathnames that are explored by pdflatex and
other engines,
usually it is a file ls --r, updated by texhash or mktexlsr.
As for the pathnames, it depends on the OS, bu the tds and tools
should be similar.
I moved to biber / biblatex (and to lualatex too) recently, and for
managing references, I should not go back to bibtex.

Guilhem, you corrected me on a major point. I had assumed that
biblatex was deprecated by biber and so its manual would be
irrelevant. I see that this is not so.

I didn't understand the syntax here (in Debian, the root directory is
/home, not /Users). My .bib resource in in ~/jabref/ and so I tried:
\addbibresource{/home/haines/jabref/historiography.bib}
\addbibresource{/home/haines/jabref/socsci.bib}
However, this jabref/ location is already in my enviornment:
$ echo $BIBINPUTS
/home/haines/jabref:
So can the \addbibresource command instead simply be:
\addbibresource{historiography.bib}
\addbibresource{socsci.bib}
But my environment problem seems to be much deeper than this. With a
test.tex file that accords (I believe) with the biblatex manual, when
I run the latex command on it I get:
ERROR: LaTeX Error: File `biblatex.sty' not found.

I'm not sure what all this means, but it seems that biblatex needs to
find a biblatex.sty file and failed to do so.
A possible cause of this error is that biblatex is not installed, but
it is installed and I do have the file:
$ locate biblatex.sty
/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/tex/latex/biblatex/biblatex.sty
However my environment is:
$ echo $TEXINPUTS
/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf:
Should I instead have defined the environment to be
/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist?
