Light novel
Series 2 of the anime focuses on volumes 3-4 of the light novel, though episode 3 goes back to cover some of the contents of volume 2 that were skipped over in series 1[1].
I believe the OVAs are original anime-only stories that are not based on any web novel or light novel contents.

Web novel
The web novel consists of 113 chapters (124 if you include short stories[3]), formatted as five parts.
The web novel has been removed from publication, but various chapters are still available (in Japanese) through the internet wayback machine.
The light novel diverged from the web novel in volume 6, and it's clear that some events happen out of order[4].
It is said that the order of the plot in the web novel is sufficiently different that you can't read it as a continuation of season 2 of the anime[5], with examples of differences given[6].
My impression from reading the Yahoo user groups comments was that the light novel had surpassed the web novel both in length and in plot covered, so it would be best to just read that instead!
