  We used high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy from the NIRSPEC
instrument on the Keck II telescope, taken over multiple epochs spanning five
years, to examine two young binary T Tauri star systems, S Corona Australis and
VV Corona Australis. The stars in these 1-2" separation systems have optically
thick circumstellar disks and high extinctions at optical and near-infrared
wavelengths. Using a combination of new and archival data, we have determined
the spectral types of all the stars in these two systems for the first time,
examined the variable NIR veiling, measured the emission line equivalent
widths, and created spectral energy distributions. They have similar spectral
types (K7-M1) and are at approximately the same evolutionary stage, allowing
comparison of the four stars in the two systems. We conclude that S CrA and VV
CrA are young binary systems of stars bridging the Class I and Class II
evolutionary stages, characterized by high accretion luminosities and variable
emission lines.
