Perhaps you should give some consideration to using a plugboard within Calibre.

This way my books are labelled with Series Name, #, Title
I also entered a 2nd line in the plugboard to shorten the author name to Initial Surname. This freed up how much text I could get on a line.
Here is a screen shot of main screen showing my collections
This is a look inside the Wiblur Smith Collection
This is a look inside the James Lee Bourke Collection
Note that as you go down some of the titles are so long they are cut off.
Here I have scrolled down within that colelction to highlight one of the lines that was cut off. Note that you get a second smaller line of text with the remaining title details.
This is another reason why I shortened the author name.
