Series for reciprocal of polylogarithm?

The series representation of a polylogarithm of order $s$ is given by $$\text{Li}_s(z) = \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{z^k}{k^s}$$ Are there any simplified expressions for $\dfrac{1}{\text{Li}_s(z)}$? ...

Proving $\text{Li}_3\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)-2 \text{Li}_3\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)= -\frac{\log^33}{6}+\frac{\pi^2}{6}\log 3-\frac{13\zeta(3)}{6}$?

Ramanujan gave the following identities for the Dilogarithm function: $$ \begin{align*} \operatorname{Li}_2\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)-\frac{1}{6}\operatorname{Li}_2\left(\frac{1}{9}\right) &=\frac{{...
