If you would like to add the series info to the Author and/or Title info shown in the booklists you should experiment with Preferences - Metadata plugboard

There is an example of a simple one in this post. That screencap is from my PRS650 but it looks very similar on the PRST1.

If you want to try it out the Metadata plugboard settings are:
Code:
Format: device_db
Device: PRST1
Source Template: {author_sort}{series:| - | }{series_index:0>2s}
Destination Field: authors
If you read up on the Calibre template language you can achieve all sorts of exotic name customisations.
