The article studies metamodelling in the information field. Specifics of metamodelling are described. Three basic interpretations of metamodelling are shown. The features of metamodelling in information technologies and information field are presented. A functional difference between the information space and the information field is specified. The article studies metarelations in the information field. Three information situations characterizing metarelations are considered: sequence, transformation, and generalization. The differences in metarelations between an object and a metamodel and between a model and a metamodel are described. The article shows the relation scheme in the system "object – model – metamodel". The scheme of metatheory formation is presented. The principles of metamodelling in the information field are revealed. The article proves that a metamodel in the information field is a model of information construction. A new concept of information metamodelling is introduced
