bankruptcy and evaluating personal assets

Are books considered “personal effects”. I have 3 bookcases of paperback novels and have no idea of their resale value. How could I estimate this?

Also, are toasters, mirrors, carpets, pots and pans, dishes considered “furniture.” What about a bicycle? Is there an online resource you can direct me to, as I can’t find one that spells out what item I have goes under what category?

Yes, all the items identified are considerred personal or household effect. As for valueing them, the is no online resource that can be used, what you need to give your best estimate of what would happen if you had a garage sale and sold everthing in the house.
