Almost anything can sell. I usually start by looking things up on various book search engines like Bibliofind. You won't necessarily get the same amounts, but you can get an idea if it might have value.
Many books are worthless, but others are...well...rather nice and might very make your day. A little research is in order, so roll up your sleeves and give it a go.
Keep in mind that some "worthless" books are the fond memories of some of us in the gray hair crowd and will be bought regardless.

A few good search engines for used books are bibliofind, abebooks and
uddall. Sometimes their prices are a little inflated but you can get
a good idea of book value there.
Good Luck! (With old books, it takes a LOT of that.)
