Trying to fix it, I went into Calibre, deleted the books from the device and reloaded them. But the series info still doesn't appear on the device.
How can I fix this?

Basically, as the other replies have suggested, it is a 2 step process. The first step sends the ebook to your device. Once you disconnect, the ebook will be imported which creates the database entry for the book. On the second connect, the metadata will be sent and the database entry will be updated for series, etc. You do not have to resend the book on the second pass.
The best way to handle sending the metadata is to open Sending books to device in calibre's Preferences and set Metadata management to Automatic Management and in the driver configuration, on the Metadata, on device and advanced tab, that Update metadata on the device and Set Series Information are checked. This will automatically update the metadata when you connect your device.
