After getting to the Appendix you mentioned below, click on the "From the LinearAlgebra Directory" entry in the third pane at the top of the Help browser. I think Help means to say (in its frequently obtuse way) that VectorNorm and MatrixNorm are replaced by the kernel function Norm, but otherwise the package hasn't changed.
