  • I'm not sure, if there are more books coming in the future

Is there a way to keep track of this? Via a plugin or directly in calibre?
A special view with the columns like:
Author - Seriesname - Status (complete, ongoing, unknown)
would be really great. [ . . . ]
I don't do this, but it may do the trick
  • Add a 'Fixed set of values' custom column (e.g. '#series-status/Series Status').
  • Select that column in the Look and Feel->Quickview->Columns to display list.
  • Only set the column for the first book in the series
Then use the Quickview feature to view a series ordered by series index, the Series Status column will be visible on the first item in the QV list.
