I recommend using Hyperbole package to get some quicker functions:
{M-x package-install RET hyperbole} as then what you see here within
curly brackets becomes a link that you activate with M-RET:

- For Emacs Lisp reference I use always {C-h r TAB RET}

- To get into Emacs Lisp Intro is to evaluate this function:
  (info "(eintr) Top")

- To make a command, meaning invokable Emacs Lisp function:

(defun my-emacs-lisp-intro ()
  (interactive)
  (info "(eintr) Top"))

- To assign that command to a key:

(keymap-set global-map "C-c e" #'my-emacs-lisp-intro)

Now all what you need to do is press {C-c e} to get

"An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp"

And remember that key bindings shall rather begin with C-c for
user configured functions.

You can put those definitions in your init file.

(defun my-emacs-lisp-intro ()
  (interactive)
  (info "(eintr) Top"))

Little problem is that function `keymap-set' is in my latest version of Emacs, so you better use:

(define-key global-map (kbd "C-c e") #'my-emacs-lisp-intro)
