What version of Mathematica are you using?

Mathematica 3.0's online documentation for the standard packages is
exactly the same as the hard-copy material.  If you paste this expression
into a notebook and evaluate it, the package's documentation will be 
opened in the Help Browser:

FrontEndExecute[FrontEnd`HelpBrowserLookup["AddOns", "NumericalMath`SplineFit`"]

You can also inspect the source code for the package.  It can be found 
on your machine in the directory that is returned by evaluating
the expression:

ToFileName[{$TopDirectory, "AddOns", "StandardPackages", "NumericalMath"}, 
  "SplineFit.m"]

There are some bibliographic references in the package code itself that
may be useful to you.
