It depends on what you mean by $Rightarrow$. Some authors essentially take it to mean $models$, others take it to mean material implication. Can you say which particular book you are using?

Dont know if it helps, I am reading "Modeling and reasoning with bayesian networks". I have always believed they were the same, but I am beginning to think that the author does not. What is the potential difference?

In the book "Modeling and reasoning with Bayesian networks", page 14, $Rightarrow$ is defined to be the material implication connective. Some other authors write this as $rightarrow$.
Other authors write $Rightarrow$ as a synonym for $models$, which is a connective in the metatheory that indicates logical implication.
Both conventions appear often enough that you have to look at each author's conventions individually.

@user1090614: I agree with Carl, although I've often seen $models$ be used for semantic entailment, i.e., $(Amodels B)Rightarrow$ "A and B mean the same thing" while the $Rightarrow$ has been used in the sense of formally implies.

A connective connects similar kinds of objects. $models$ doesn't do this, and consequently is not a connective.

@Doug Spoonwood: it is common in the metatheory to write $phi models psi$, where $phi$ and $psi$ are both formulas of the same logic. In that case $models$ looks like a connective to me.

@CarlMummert In that case I agree once we have parentheses expressed. However, it is also common enough to write things like (p⇒q), (q⇒r) $models$ (p⇒r), where the left hand side gets understood as a set of propositions. A set of propositions is not the same sort of object as a proposition. So, in that case it doesn't look like a connective to me.

$models$ gets used in a number of ways. We may write: $phimodelspsi$ with formulae; $Phimodelspsi$ with a set of formulae and a formula; ${cal M}modelsphi$ with a semantic model (whatever that might be in context) and a formula. I think that the last the most general, since the others can be expressed in terms of it. E.g., $Phimodelspsi$ means that each ${cal M}$ such that ${cal M}modelsphi$ for every $phiinPhi$ is such that ${cal M}modelspsi$. $phimodelspsi$ means ${phi}modelspsi$.

⇒ is a logical connective in the object language. It connects two propositions. It has a specific truth table and/or a characterization by a set of axioms (or axiom schema) under a rule of inference(s).
$models$ happens in the metalanguage and usually refers only to semantic entailment. It doesn't connect individual propositions, but rather relates a proposition or a set of propositions to another proposition or set of propositions. It doesn't have a truth table. With $models$ we can write things likes
$models$ (p⇒q).
p $models$ q.
{p, q, r} $models$ (p⇒(q⇒r)).
There is no meaningful statement like {p, q, r} ⇒ (p⇒(q⇒r)), because ⇒ only relates particular propositions, not sets of propositions.
