Help with 5-speed manual transmission shifting into rev

Over the last few months, I have gradually been having more difficulty shifting into reverse, for example, when parking the car to remove the key.
Shifting into reverse seems to get hung up and not fully engaging in reverse. Forcing it a bit more causes it to seat, and I can then remove the key.
I don't have any experience working on manual transmissions but this seems like a good opportunity to get some :)
I am looking for pointers/suggestions on where to begin and some things to look at in my troubleshooting. Any 'well known' weak spots that I should check?
vehicle is a 2004 9-5 with 117K miles. Nothing has ever been maintained or serviced on the tranny.
thanks for the help
