Vaitinasa says these are debts from a few years ago and a representative from the company is arriving next week for meetings with Department to discuss them.
She says their indications are the debt is about $US80,000, not the more than $US100,000 claimed by the company.
Vaitinasa says the lack of text books is not a major problem, with teachers more and more relying on computers and other resources.
There's $US877,500 in the Department's proposed 2016 annual budget for text books.
