The Kobo devices show the series name library lists. It has been set on the device, but as you are using calibre, the KoboTouch driver can do this automatically when you connect. So, find the book in the library list (sort by "Recent" and it should be at the start) then do a search using the series name. That will find all the books in the series.

If you have a collection with the books in it, when you open the collection and open a book from it, the collection will be added to the home screen. If you are planning to read the series, using this tile to access the collection and open the books will keep the tile on the home screen.

The only way I can think of to see the collections a book is in while using the device, is to use the "Add to collection" function. This lists all the collections on the device and has a tick against the collections the book is in. A bit clumsy, but it works.
