Note sure whether this is what you are looking for, but having loaded 
the package into memory you can see the symbols contained in its context 
thanks to the command Information[] (shortcut: question mark ?) Say we 
want to what is available with the package VectorAnalysis:

   Needs["VectorAnalysis`"]

   ?VectorAnalysis`*

   (* Output: table showing all the symbols in this context *)

Hope this helps,
