There are different algorithms for different parts of SymPy. For instance, symbolic integration has its own large set of algorithms and literature on those algorithms (a subset of which are implemented in SymPy). Some parts of SymPy don't have set algorithms, but are based on some heuristics built by the SymPy developers (most of the sovlers module is like this). Often things are just done more or less how you would do them by hand. For those parts that do have literature on algorithms, there are usually some references in the documentation or in the code.
For a generic take, look for a book on computer algebra (I'm afraid I can't recommend which ones are good, but possibly others can).
