Anonymous: In Japan the word joseki is used to mean "standard way to play" sometimes as opposed to the joseki dictionary of corner sequences. What you are referring to fits more the standard way to play meaning rather than a sequence of moves that results in an approximately equal result locally. The moves you are talking about are really dependent on the whole-board situation and hence aren't likely to be found in joseki dictionaries.

There are some sources, though:

1. Data bases of pro games, where you can search for the position. Then you can also examine the surrounding area to see under what circumstances the moves were used.

2. there are two books, Takemiya's Enclosure Josekis and Iwamoto's Keshi and Uchikomi, that have a lot of this information. Unfortunately Takemiya's book is out of print, but the Iwamoto book is still available from Slate and Shell, I think.
