It would have been at the end of the 2009 version if it had been done as that version was in chronological order.
The books are not in chronological order. Niether was the 2006 version of the show.
From what I understand the fourth book is the most plot intensive of the stories until books 9, 10, an 11 storyline. Because it is plot intensive, and the most liked of the novels, the movie had to pay a lot of attention to detail, thus it was longer than expected. That and the inability to break it up well into 22 minute episodes is likely a reason they cancelled the second season idea and went with the 2009 version adding in the parts they missed chronologically, and the ones that were needed for build up to the movie. Then made a movie with a real budget to make it look really good.
Book 1, 2, and 4 are single plot stories in order. Books 3, 5, and 6 are short stories that are mixed inbetween the times of these longer stories. Book 7 is the next long single plot story.
All of books 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been made now. Most of books 5 and some of book 6 have also been made. There are five stories left between books 5 and 6 that have to be animated before book 7's story can take place. Book 8 is two stories. Book 9 and books 10/11 are essentially one large story.
All the parts from books 5 and 6 were stuff that happened chronologically before the story of book 4.
These were the stories:
(from book 5)
"Endless Eight"
"The Day of Sagittarius"
(from book 6)
"Live Alive"
"The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina Episode 00"
(It is kind of funny. The very first thing people saw in April 2006 about Haruhi Suzumiya was from the 6th novel. A story that told what was made during the 2nd novel.)
