There are some ebook formats that do not save anything other than standard (DC??) metadata...at least that goes through Calibre. IIRC mobi is one of those. I have seen some books use workarounds by putting the non-standard metadata in between remarks codes... As Jellby said, it is still up to the device/app as to weather it will read that metadata.

<!--
<meta content="1" name="calibre:series_index" />
<meta content="Howdy" name="calibre:series" />
-->

...of course you could always switch to ePub format...
