Series and the number of the book in the series.

Here's what I'm trying to do (if this is not a supported method, let me know)

I have thousands of ebooks in various formats. I want to convert them all to LRF format so I can read them on my 505.
I'd like to take advantage of the Collections feature of the reader.
I don't know which ebooks will convert to LRF format without errors so my idea is to add 100 or so to the library in Calibre (4.73) at a time.
I then do a bulk convert and remove any that have errors.
Then I want to edit the metadata for Title, Author, Series, Book # of each book. The changes are reflected in the gui.
Then I want to save them to a folder called COnvertedToLRF.
Then I delete them from the library so I can start working on the next batch.

The problem is when I go to add them back into the library (I pick the *.lrf files in the ConvertedToLRF folder) the Series and Book number and the cover picture (if I added one) are gone (blank)

Is this supported and am I doing it the right way?

Thanks
